Well, this year we have made it to where we had hoped to spend Christmas - Marsh Harbour in the Abacos. The biggest reason that this was our target destination this year was so that we could spend Christmas with our Grace Baptist Church family in Dundas Town.
The transit weather was great, as opposed to last year where we spent two weeks in Bimini and almost a week in West End traveling from Miami to Marsh Harbour. This year we made the trip in less than a week with a 3-night stop in West End. Great weather window!
We are docked at Harbour View Marina where we plan to stay at least a few weeks.

We have put up our Christmas decorations; we have a small wreath, instead of a tree. When we were selling our house we gathered a small collection of ornaments to bring on the boat. The criteria for selection were: small, relatively unbreakable, and of sentimental value. In spite of a water dousing courtesy of a leaking water heater a few years ago, they have held up fairly well. Our 25+ year music-box ornament still plays 'Silent Night'!

Always remembering the true meaning of Christmas:
Wishing all a blessed Christmas from the crew of SV Barefoot!
