The last couple weeks ✨ We had our first visitor (Brandon’s mom) and the girls were in heaven having her all to themselves for several days. Mornings at the beach, afternoons at the pool, loads of good food, lots of card games.
After we left Cape Eleuthera, we had the glassiest day at sea on our way north. Spanish Wells was adorable; the swings were a favorite, as was the golf cart we rented for a day. The neighboring beaches had amazing padded starfish and great snorkeling.
Our days move at a different pace here. We homeschool where it fits (the girls have been loving our Around the World study and learning about every ocean animal, especially those we’ve seen in the Bahamas) and explore when we can.
Everything depends on the weather, which is a major difference with land life. Whether or not we leave the boat for the day depends on if we can do so easily and safely. Some days are a lot of back porch baby swings, YouTube exercise videos, boat projects, reading, magnatile castles, sourdough testing, and enjoying sunsets that look painted on the sky. Some nights (re: a few nights ago) are spent on very exhausting ocean crossings so the girls can sleep through them.
And they are all good days 🫶🏼
