Chris and I and another couple on "Shapies Dream" (Pat and Dianne) rented a car for a day! It was windy so it made it a perfect day to do some exploring. The car was brand new, we were expecting something else with dents, like most cars that we had seen on the various islands.
From Treasure Cae we set out to find the "Blue Hole". We had asked directions and they were like this. Go down the road until you get to the T, turn right, go down the road until you see a burned out school bus, turn left, follow the road until you see 2 more burned out cars, follow the road to the end and you should arrive at the "Blue Hole". With these instructions in hand, we headed out.......we almost gave up and low and behold, we found the burnt out cars! We weren't lost!
This was a very large hole and very deep, it was almost creepy. While we have been to the Abacos, there were lots of forest fires. There are lots of pine trees and it was very dry. These fires would burn for days and then smolder underground.
Time to get back into the car and head up the road. We stopped and drove around each town until we ran out of road, end of the line. We were on a hunt for lobsters as well. Each town had a take out place and we did have an excellent lunch at the end of the road. We came upon some fisherman in one town and yes, they had lobster and fresh fish. So we purchased some lobster for dinner! Yum Yum!
