Today was windy and drizzly most of the day so we stayed tied to the dock and explored the island. Alan made sausage egg and cheese croissants for breakfast. Today was Easter Monday, a national holiday in the Bahamas. To celebrate the holiday, many locals picnic on the beach. The picnic we were invited to was apparently canceled – we were the only ones who showed up! It was probably for the best anyway as the red beans we were preparing wound up taking all day to cook. They turned out great though and we had them for dinner–much thanks to Devon (red beans) and Alan (RICE). Our kids did swim in the surf this afternoon. Ruston found a big Rubber Maid container lid on the beach and rode the waves in on it like a surf board. They also made some new friends playing pool at Big Game. Everyone is having a great time, but we are all itching to go snorkeling!
