A fourth infection has been verified in The Bahamas. The four cases are in Nassau and in the same household. The Prime Minister has declared a state of emergency, closed non essential businesses, enacted a nightly curfew, and banned non essential travel between the islands.
Though we loved Black Point settlement, it’s not a good place for us to hunker down. There is no fuel on the cay, and there is no protection from a west wind. Though rare, they do happen.
We used our final day to travel to make the 55 mile run to Rock Sound in Eleuthera. We have 360 degree protection, food, fuel, and an international airport. We’re also closer to the US than we would have been in George Town. Eleuthera is a single large island with several towns and most goods are trucked into town.
While we’re here, we’re going to limit our trips into town. There are plenty of reefs to snorkel and empty remote beaches to explore. Who knows, maybe I’ll catch a lobster or conch.

Be safe. If there is anything here you need me to do, just let me know.

Your mom and I were catching up on your older emails. We determined how the car š was stuck in the bay. Here is our
guess: We determined that a boat car fairy was taking cars to the The island and one slipped off because the chains were not fastened well.
Did we guess correctly? We will love to hear an answer. Praying for your safe travels as you are hunkered down Eluthera .
In Christ,
Dona
