Someone who goes by the name of Globalnomad left a comment here yesterday and he mentioned a rental house a little farther up the coast of Cat Island from where I stay. I followed the link to The Cat Island Boathouse . Wow. What a place! Check this out:

This is a near up of Cat Island itself. Fernandez Bay Village is marked approximately 3-quarters of the way down the west coast of the island. Pigeon Cay and Flamingo Point are a chunk farther north at the identical coast.

So thanks Globalnomad, you've given me a new place to go exploring next week. And in the meantime, go look at The Boathouse's website . If there's a heaven, it looks like Cat Island, trust me.

Here's a map of the entire island nation of The Bahamas . You can see pretty clearly how its location relates to Cuba and Florida.

I think you have to have spent a while over there to understand how really first rate the kitchen inside the Boathouse is. Getting your hands on those sorts of constructing resources while you're on an island inside the middle of the Atlantic is an challenge I don't need to contemplate.
