Shroud Cay

4/18/09

Today finds anchored off of Shroud Cay. What a beautiful, unspoiled place. We took the dinghy up into the creeks through the mangrove swamps and walked along the beach – sand like pure flour! – and then up a hill to a place called Camp Driftwood. From on top you could see for miles in all directions and the color of the sea was, once again, exceptional. It was from this vantage point that drug agents once spied on cocaine operations in and out of Norman’s Cay (or so one of our guide books tells us). We saw some beautiful tropicbirds (?). White with very long graceful tail feathers and stunning black markings. What a treat.























Kitties happy today with just a short easy sail and both have been on deck sunning and trying to find out where David hid the Cat Nip plant.
