Nassau Harbour, New Providence, Bahamas

Another day on anchor in the harbour and again it is hot and sticky. Neither Kevin nor I slept at all well as the heat even at night is sweltering. Consequently by consensus, both tucked into good books we decide to do little / nothing at all today and just try to stay cool. There is quite an impressive squall in the afternoon and we both breath a sigh of relief as the sun is momentarily obscured by cloud. After the squall a perfect rainbow spans the harbour and I head out to get some photos.

We have another resident barracuda stalking us under the boat and you regularly see him through the escape hatch in the heads lurking. Kevin also managed to get a great shot of an eagle ray gliding past the boat this morning, he has seen a couple recently, but you have to be really quick to get the camera in time.
