I have gone through an 80 degree temperature drop in the last 24 hours. BRRR. it's cold
in Minnesota. Our Trip to Treasure Cay was wonderful. The Weather was delightful - only one day
of rain but still pleasant. I got to read 1 1/2 books, swim in the ocean and play
with my kids. My three year old girl met lots of new kids and played endlessly with them.
My one year old ate a lot of sand. But best of all, he learned to walk on our trip. By necessity -
he didn't like crawling on the cement with bare knees! We had dinner at the Spinnaker one night. It was
only so-so and pretty expensive. But the Conch Fritters are good and the Grouper fingers are VERY good.
We also ate at A Touch of Class. Rode the free shuttle. That was less expensive and pretty good. But I've
had enough fried fish for a while. I didn't get to snorkel. No one would go with me. My advice: buy the water, call or email ahead to rent a cart or boat (we didn't and only got a cart for 4 of
7 days... luckily we were close to the store). Also plan ahead to get on a snorkel trip... I didn't and couldn't
get on a trip. Buy more milk than you think you need... the store runs out and it could be two days before
they get any more. In TC walk to the point... the water is really clear and pretty
shallow. I walked out 200 yards or so only up to my chest. Body surf. We went to Green Turtle on a Sunday. Big mistake. It was like a ghost town. Only two places were open for
food. One was the hotel.. the other a restaurant. No shops were open. Over all, a beautiful trip. We had no TV, no Phone and listened to 94.5 radio (with Silbert doing the news!)
Thanks. I'll check back here again in the future. Stay well, one and all.
