My mom has been here for 2 weeks now. I think she’s getting the worst vacation ever. Not much fun here hanging out at the dock. Her days are filled with taking care of the girls and cleaning the boat. I personally think it’s her BEST vacation ever! We are getting a clean boat and a sitter!!!
So what sort of fun do you get up to when you’re mom is in town? Well we’ve been to Potter Cay and bought conch fritters and conch salad. We got back to the boat and all had to wash our black feet. It was an interesting place but don’t think I’ll be heading back there anytime soon. All the shacks were running off of loud generators and people and cars everywhere. Plus the funky smell. I’m all up for an adventure and don’t like things sterile but Potters Cay was a little too dingy for me.
We’ve been to Atlantis a couple of times to take the girls to the slides which has been fun. Today we went over for our last hoorah before we are consumed with the baby. I missed the evening feeding which made me feel extra guilty but he’ll have me 24/7 come tomorrow. It was my last time to love on my girls without a bubba on my boob constantly. Bambi our neighbor came over with us to help my mom out. It’s been 10 days since the birth and I’m not able to go swimming yet.
We’ve also taken mom to our favorite scavenger beach. It’s across the container ships loading dock and all the garbage washes up there. What more fun than looking for treasures on a deserted beach. We picked up 2 ping pong balls, a tennis ball and a bucket. What a score! We even got another bucket on the way to the beach. I think it was a low point in Carls life. We were fishing a used bucket out of Nassau's inlet and checking it for holes when a beautiful mega yacht comes cruising past. Carl held his head in shame. It’s ok babe, you won’t be thinking of that boat each time you use your fab bucket knowing you didn’t have to pay $20 for it!
Mum swears she’s having a good time but it hasn’t been all pina-coladas and lazy days on the beach. We get to take Crew home from the hospital tomorrow so she’ll have a new nana job. Carl is currently in Massachusetts dealing with a family emergency and when he returns we’ll try and show her a good time in the Exumas.
Cheers to Nana’s…. they can put up with a shit load!
