We Got to Represent

 There is a hill on Warderick Wells Cay known as Boo Boo Hill. The walk up to it isn't so bad, but if one is not cautious a serious injury could be the result. This would not be from a fall from height, but merely a fall to the ground with your foot stuck in a hole. Fortunately this didn't happen to either of us either time we walked up to the hill.
 The first time up to the hill we learned of the legend where people leave driftwood inscribed with their boat name piled up on the peak. The notion here is that by contributing to the heap of driftwood name boards we placate the ghosts inhabiting the island. The contribution is also considered to be an offering to the spirits of good weather for traveling boaters. So we had to find a piece of driftwood suitable for use as a name board.
 Given this first walk up the hill was the longer walk that took us around a good chunk of the cay and over some very rough terrain we kept our eyes open for driftwood. But this walk took us over all of the other hills and away from beaches and we came up empty handed. The next day we were out and about in Madonna the dink and after landing on a number of beaches in the area we finally found some driftwood.
 So I fashioned up a board and we took it up to the top of Boo Boo Hill and laid it down on the pile full filling our obligation to the ghosts and spirits of the seas. Our representation has been achieved.
 This makes another mark in the long term goals of cruising the Exumas. Without question Warderick Wells offers up an amazing panorama from atop Boo Boo Hill. While there isn't much here, what is here is spectacular. Our time on mooring ball #9 was enhanced by the fact that there is a sunken sailboat underneath us depending on which way the tide is moving. On incoming tide the wreck is directly under us, and outgoing we can see it a little ways off. At night with the transom lights on large yellow tails swim about and smaller ones dart in and out of the light. Small angle fish can be seen within the wreck very clearly. We also had two days of calm winds that kept the Atlantic side flat calm. So Deb got quite an eyeful with the look bucket even though it wasn't really needed. Even though I was standing up driving I could generally see most of what she could since the water was that clear.
 We also had quite a bit of company out here. Bananaquits would fly into the aft deck early in the morning and later in the afternoon looking for a hand out. Once they got to know you they would eat out of your hand after landing on a finger. Good company but they crap all over everything. Nothing like another high maintenance friendship.
 With that it's getting to be time to move on again. I'll upload some more photos in a day or two when we get better bandwidth. Right now, it's 10 bucks for 24 hours or 100 megabytes which ever happens first.
