We are relaxing and waiting for the weekend for our weather window. After breakfast we walked north to the Bimini Bay resort. It is two miles away, but we needed to get off the boat for some exercise. We obtained some info regarding the slip prices, and when we were here in January the rumor was that it was $1 per foot, 40 foot minimum (they charge you $40 even if you only have a 30 foot boat). Well, the dock master and the brochure dispelled that rumor but it is a beautiful marina with floating docks.
After wondering around the resort, we headed back and stopped to pick up some fresh bread, coconut and whole wheat, from a house. We walked through their foyer into the area that will probably be a dining room once the house is completed. Oh yes, off to the right was another room with concrete block walls and framing studs. We dropped off post cards and went back to the boat.
Later that afternoon we walked north on the beach and found some more shells. We will probably come home with three boxes of shells. We went back to the marina for showers, and while I was waiting for Beth to finish, I watched them clean some fish. The boat had come in with 3 wahoo and a dozen barracuda. I was talking with the owner of the boat who is a native and so were his parents and grandparents about fishing, and he gave us a piece of wahoo, which we had never had. I asked how to cook it, and he typically fried it or you could broil it. I decided to marinate it in Caribbean Jerk and the grilled it for about 2 minutes per side, per instructions, do not overcook. It was wonderful.
