6:15am- Got up early to enjoy the quiet morning and the sunrise.
I made homemade blueberry pancakes and enjoyed our coffee before our 7:30am departure from Great Sale to Mangrove Cay. It won’t be as long of a day as yesterday.
Looks like we will be motor sailing today since there is light dead down winds. We are going at a speed of 6 knots to prevent the boat rolling back and forth.
10:00am- Finally we were able to shut the engine and sail with our head sail. We are going over 5 knots which is nice. We only hear the waves hitting against GaYa’s sides.
11:45am- We arrived and anchored at Mangrove Cay.
Upon arrival, we made water. It will be the last time to make water because once we are in the US, we will be able to fill up at the marina and you really don’t want to make water in those waters.
I changed my phone cell chip from Bahamian to US since we are presently no longer connected until we cross the US border
3:00pm- Steve changes the Bahamian courtesy flag to US flag. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/ganfnwksMei97wB7UBC-nXTyYvS8ttrHXO76GueSCLJHRbJpUO5QAu8uCWSJ5ZGVQ68)

4:00pm- I finished my first palm frond basket and quite pleased with myself.
Dinner tonight is pizza and brownies.
There wasn’t much left of the Bahamian flag. Shows you how much wind there was.
We relocated our anchorage spot closer to land Since it was a bit bumpy.
Sun Sporit also relocated.
4:00pm- I finished my first palm frond basket and quite pleased with myself.
Very time consuming!
7:45pm- We watched the last Bahamian sunset this year. So beautiful.
Watched a couple of series before turning in early. Leaving tomorrow at 3am for Florida. .
