March 4, 2011 Warderick Wells Cay (Exuma Land & Sea Park) – We are still here!

            The winds had decided that they wanted us to stay in Warderick Wells for another day and we agreed with their decision.  We started the morning by waiting out some heavy winds and a small rain storm while watching a movie and, once that ended, so did the rains.  All three boats decided to head up to Boo Boo Hill and tradition requires that you leave a remnant of driftwood from your visit there.  Dan and Martha created a plaque reminding those that follow that CCYC South had visited the hill and left their mark on 3-4-2011.  While up at Boo Boo Hill we were able to see the ocean on one side and the magnificent semi-circle North Field anchorage which Warderick Wells was known for.

            After a late lunch we decided it was time to snorkel.  With Dan and Sam in one dinghy and us in the other, we went to Emerald Rock and jumped overboard with our snorkel gear on.  The fish we saw were countless.  We now know where the fish in Warderick Wells hide because we saw them!  We saw a variety of coral along with many schools of fish.  It was a site to see.

                                                       Lots of fish!                                           

            It was Friday and we decided it was time for a happy hour.  At 5pm we gathered on Andiamo for appetizers and drinks to celebrate another fun day in paradise.  The next our plan was to move to Cambridge Cay for more snorkeling.  We were hoping the winds would be in agreement.  We would have to wait and find out the next morning.
