Norman & Allen Cays

We did a whirlwind tour of Norman Cay, this is the Cay where a drug cartel and drug war took place. We haven't seen it yet, but we understand the movie "Blow" was based on this drug war. We did do a quick tour of the bay where there is a crashed DC3 airplane still visible and partially out of the water. We also wandered around the island where all the deserted buildings were from the drug operation. Not much left, but it was fun trying to figure out what was what. The girls looked high and low for a suitable souvenir, but didn't find anything.

Early the next morning we headed off for Allen Cay, home to another species of iguana. These guys were all over the place and we had fun feeding them some fruit and taking lots of pictures. Jenessa has been working on a school report about the iguanas we have been seeing. We managed to squeeze in a quick swim before we readied the boat to sail across to Nassau. Boy am I going to miss this swimming.

We are now in Nassau (this is where we picked up Lily 10 days ago). The girls wanted one last chance to shop for presents and we are also going to explore the option of spending a day in Atlantis.
