April 30 (Day 9 – Kayak Hurricane Hole, Skinny Legs for Dinner)

April 30 (Day 9 – Kayak Hurricane Hole, Skinny Legs for Dinner): we rented 2 kayaks from Crabby’s (Ray & Brenda). He had them in the water for us already at Princess Bay. We headed to Otter Creek & explored the whole area. Lots of mangroves with lots of fish & coral. After about 1.5 hours we got back in our boats & headed to Water Creek. I was a bit tired, so we tied up our boat & Rod got in the water. I rested! Jim & Pam paddled around the bay & saw birds. We were not there too long. We decided to go back to Otter Creek to a nice little beach for lunch. Yes! We brought food with us this time. We met a nice family from Tanglewood, Mass there. After eating we swam back to the east side of Otter Creek. Good swim! A big barracuda followed Rod quite a way! Then, we paddled back to our parking spot, cleaned up & rested until about 4:00. Before we came home from boating, we stopped at Calabash again for wine & dinner for Thursday. Soaked my going home clothes! We went back to Skinny Legs for dinner. Very good! The family from Mass came in after we did & sat at the table next to us.
