Tilloo and Lynyrd Cays Revisited

Since we enjoyed our previous beach bonfires so much, we wanted to share them with Jesse and Brittany.  The rest of our group graciously agreed to revisit some of our previous haunts, so we headed for Tilloo with its great beach retreat.  We anchored close to the beach and managed a few daylight hours to shell and play horseshoes, then some great evening hours to watch the gorgeous sunset, roast hot dogs and make s'mores.  The highlight of the evening for Brittany was the phosphorescence (mermaid sprinkles).  She couldn't get enough of the amazing lights, and even got into the dinghy after we returned to the boat so she could wave her hands (and the boat hook) in the water and try to capture it on film.  Once again, photos don't do justice to the beauty we've witnessed, but it's always fun to try.

girls can too play horseshoes!

The next day we went to Lynyrd Cay on the Atlantic side to search for sea glass.  We all collected quite a bagful, along with shells, so everyone can expect seaglass and shell treasures for Christmas.  We then loaded into the high-speed dinghies (September Song and Tide's In) to visit Pete's Pub at Little Harbour for lunch.  The food was as good (and the beer as cold) as we remembered, and we had a very exciting ride back to the boats.  The waves and wind were honking, so we zoomed back bumping all the way.  We were glad we'd visited the facilities before heading back (and those who hadn't weren't found out since we were all soaked).  A great revisit to Tilloo and Lynyrd Cays for everyone, and thanks to our fellow travelers for indulging us.
