Black Point, Exumas 24º6.04N | 76º24.12W
This was our first experience of a true Bahamian community and the sweet, sweet spirit of those who live in it. Where everyone, including the smallest children and sulkiest teens will greet you as you pass, where the ladies call out to you in the evening as they sit on the front porch weaving baskets, where you can walk right into the kitchen to buy their coconut bread -- and play with the grandkids while you're there.
After eight days, we will reluctantly be leaving tomorrow, headed south for Cave Cay.
