Grandma, I've been attempting to read your info from below, but have not
figured out how to make the system jump.

Where do I read your stuff, vs just see pix that others have put up (well,
as have you, too, it appears)?


I have a whole narrative of both trips on Virtual Tourist with
pictures, plus information on hotels, restaurants marinas etc (the
marinas are under Sports Tips).

There are two ways to do this. One is go to my VT homepage
http://www12.virtualtourist.com/m/4a9c6/ and there are links to each
segment of all the trips. You can click on each segment that you want
to see. Also if you click on the pictures the large thumbnails will
expand.

If you go to:

2001, Feb 2-4 Scare in the Keys [which was anchored off Marathon and
the start of the 2001 trip] and click on the blue link on the home
page (which is http://www12.virtualtourist.com/m/tt/2e650/#TL ) it
will take you to that section of the narrative.

2001, Feb 15-21 Crossing the Gulf Stream to stay in Bimini, Bahamas
2001- Feb 22 trip to Lucaya
2001 Feb 23-25 stay at Lucaya
2001 Feb 26-leaving Lucaya

And then farther down the page is

Jan. 9-15, 2002 to Marathon FL
Jan. 16-19, 2002 staging for the Bahamas to go to Bimini . and on Jan.
20-21, 2002, crossed the Grand Bahama Bank Jan. 22-23, 2002 Fraziers
Hog Cay (Berry Islands).

Part 5a Approach
Part 5b Nassau
Part 5c Nassau Harbour Bridges to
Part 5d Atlantis Aquarium
Part 6 Jan 30 - Feb 6, 2002 "Before the Heart Attack" takes us to the
Exumas - Allan's, Normans, Highborne, and Shroud Cays

Feb. 6, 2002 sailed to Nassau -airlifted to Miami, Feb. 8, 2002 - had
an angioplasty.

Part 7b We flew back to the Bahamas Miami (from the air) .
Part 8a Feb 25, 2002 is returning to the boat - the Bahamas from the
air

March 6, 2002,we had a scary bumpy trip to Lucaya
March 10, 2002 - we went West End (Grand Bahama)

Or you can start at http://www12.virtualtourist.com/m/tt/2e608/#TL
(which is the start of the 2002 trip), and read and scroll down to the
bottom of the page, at which place you will see:

Next PART 3 Gulf Stream Crossing and if you click on the blue "Part
3", it will take you to the next section which is

locations where I have pictures (first number is tip information and
the second number is the number of photos) such as
