Bountiful Harvest in the Exumas
January 26th, 2007
We arrived in Georgetown yesterday after 3 weeks in the Exumas. We found our friends Pete and Chris on Scooter. Over the years they have shown us how to spearfish, hunt lobster, find shells and sea glass, and weave palm fronds. We hung out in a secret cove along with Monty and Sara, the creators of “The Explorer Charts of the Bahamas”. It turns out Sara is an Innis from Louisiana so we agreed to share family history information. Small world isn’t it? On the way to Georgetown, Pete caught a Mahi Mahi which Jeri turned into the best fish curry ever for dinner tonight. The night before we had yellow-fin grouper which could be the finest fish ever grilled. We had lobster picata made by Chris and baked lane snapper caught by Monty. You can’t buy food this good at any restuarant. Keri is learning to weave baskets and to make jewelry from sea glass. Georgetown is great for boat repairs, stocking up on supplies, and of course internet access.
