USA Mega Trip - July & August 2022

[Alex]

One from Long Island before we headed over to the Bahamas - IH-634S-WH & Navy Utilitee

Dinner the other night, Kira made a cast iron pan focaccia which was unreal

Some of the local architecture

The dock at the bottom of our house. Great place for shark sightings in the evening when the sun angle is low

Speaking of which….

And for those following along, got the dressing changed, no infection, and got the all clear to get back in the water.

Fresh wounds and sharks.  Pass.  Hard.  Pass.

Helped Mike fix his boat lift today, we were taking it in turns to get down on the lift and pretzel ourselves onto the arms of the lift for maintenance.

Getting internet out here is hard work - I came prepared with a 5G SIM card router which worked pretty well, but was not as good as it could have been (10-12mbps down, 1mbps up - fine for me, terrible for Kira uploading photos) so was very excited when my Starlink RV preorder got delivered to Kira's colleague from London in time for her to bring with her yesterday from London. It arrived on the afternoon flight to Andros today, and I have done a janky quick and dirty setup for now.

Cable under the doorframe and in through the air conditioner outlets

That's a bit better….

At the weekend I'll tidy up the fitting and try to mount it somewhere on the roof for the longer term.
