Bat Moths on Our Leopard 45 Catamaran in The Bahamas. E44

Описание: Happy New Year!!! I know, it posted a little late. But better late than never.

In this episode hiked all over Lee Stocking Island in the Exumas on our Leopard 45 Sailing Catamaran, finding another place to call one of our favorites. The scenery is once again spectacular, breathtaking. And Adrienne gets slapped in the face by a wave. (She's laughing about it now.) Keep a look out for it.

Provisioning in the islands is definitely not the same as in the US. Grocery stores are small, and very few are plentiful, which makes luxury items especially hard to get. And if you can get them, they are ridiculously expensive. Would you pay $7 for an avocado? How about $10 for a package of Romain lettuce? So, when we do find such things and they happen to be reasonably priced, we stock up. Then we hide them. It keeps us in check, reminding us that these items are special. Find out what we hide and where we hide it.

Jeff hates flying bugs. Flying bugs and snakes. And while there are very few snakes here in The Bahamas, if any, there are these giant moths that hang around. Jeff calls them Bat Moths. I don't know why. They don't look anything like bats. Nonetheless, they scare the hell out of him. Watch him scream like a little kid when one lands on his salad.

If you'll remember, we added two new solar panels before we left. They are called "bifacial" panels in that they harvest energy from the suns reflection off the water or the deck underneath the panel. Thanks go out to Andre and his team from Gulf Nautical and Steven and his team from The Yacht Rigger. We are raking in the sunshine!

And we ring in 2022 with a beautiful beach bonfire complete with Trentadue Rose Champagne (link below), Kristi's homemade toffee, my gluten free onion rings, and great friends.

Happy New Year everyone!
