February 27, 2022 Leaving George Town  to Lee Stocking Island  Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband Steve who turned 69 today.  7:45am- FaceTimed with Natalie,Cooper and Logan.  8:00am- Listened to Cruiser’s net while having our coffee. Made blueberry pancakes for breakfast.  9:30am- We FaceTimed with Nicky, Lyla and Parker. It will be Lyla’s 12th birthday tomorrow.  9:45am-  Anchor is up and off we go to Lee Stocking Island.

We will slowly move our way to Staniel Cay.  12:00pm- Still under sail at a speed 5.6nm. Unbelievable the amount of catamaran sailing this year.

Feels so good when the boat is all clean.   Today was a day to paint, play ukulele and read. 5:00pm- Went to Splash Restaurant across the bay to watch the Super Bowl game.  The cheeseburger and fries were great. 6:30pm- Game is beginning. So many boaters dinghied across the bay.  We sat with Gunter, Fred and Ruth Ann.  The Super Bowl deal was $25 for a bucket of 5 beers.  They passed around shooters all evening.  10:15pm- Good game.  After the Rams won we were back at our boat on our dinghy.  Before when we arrived at the restaurant, our dinghy was anchored in water and by the time we were leaving, the tides w
