Update

We spent the day doing a lot of nothing so it was perfect.  We listened to the weather guru, Chris Parker, the warmth of our v-berth.  Leisurely had coffee and eventually ate breakfast then went exploring spots to snorkel once the wind and waves lay down.  We've been experiencing winter Bahama style for the past few days.  That means we're wearing shorts and sweatshirts and feeling cold in mid-70 degree weather.  Of course, the 20 knot north wind does put a chill on things.  We then joined Sherry and Jim in a ride down to Fort Montague and walked around to see the fish market.  I forgot the camera, sorry.  The forts are much smaller than we expected and I think they may have been more of a deterrent than actual defense measures.  The only one to fire a weapon was Montague when it was taken in 1776 by American forces.  Interestingly, we walked around the end of the island and found things radically different in comparison to downtown.  The businesses were large and well kept.  There weren't a cadre of security people and things just felt very different.  It's as if after independence the government center was abandoned to it's fate. I'm sure there are some very interesting stories behind it all and they probably vary by the perspective of the teller.  This evening we were hosted for happy hour on a large motor catamaran by a very nice Australian couple.  We came back to Sanctuary and were pleasantly surprised by the Internet actually working, ergo the update.  We plan to walk to Mass tomorrow and see what the Christmas schedule will be.  We hope all our family, friends and followers are having a wonderful weekend.
