Matt and I seem to do a lot of underestimating.  

Our most recent underestimation, was how long it would take to provision. We guessed we could get it done in T minus 3 hours.  It took all day.  We've heard horror stories about the cost of certain things in the Bahamas, so we decided to try to save ourselves some money and stock the boat here in Marathon.

I've never bought so many groceries in my life! In fact, I've probably never bought so many groceries on all previous trips combined!  No, that's a lie.  Anyways, finding storage spaces on the boat will be our next hurdle. The last thing you want in heavy winds is to have a mountain of cans tumbling down on your crackers.  Or worse-your noggin, so we will have to do some serious rearranging of the aft berth.  (Which is where you will be sleeping if you ever decide to come down to visit us :)

On another note, tomorrow's the big day!  No, Matt and I aren't getting married.........yet.  But, we are going to clear customs.  We are driving down to Key West to declare that we are leaving the country and to ask for our 48 hour weather window.  That way, we will have time to get to Rodriguez Key to wait for fair weather to cross the gulf stream before our visas run out.  Wish us luck!

Oh yeah, and today I saw a huge spider.  Please don't decide to live on my boat sir spider.

Sweet dreams!  Or good morning!  (Whatever the case may be)  Looking forward to posting after our brush with customs tomorrow.  We have been dreading it and feeling like fugitives for so long that it will just be nice to get it over with and get out of the country.  PEACE!
