Baker's Bay

Saturday, February 26, 2011

On Saturday continued by boat to Baker's Bay in Great Guana Cay.
.
Baker's Bay is a 3 mile long bay on the island of Great Guana Cay. It is the location of the Baker's Bay Golf & Ocean Club,as well as the controversy surrounding it. Baker's Bay is a clear and aqua sea grass bed in the Sea of Abaco, and was a favorite destination of Abaco boaters for years. Dredging for a Disney cruise destination caused considerable environmental damage to the corals in the area,
as corals are unable to withstand continuous silting. In 2004, Baker's Bay Golf & Ocean Club
began a megadevelopment project, which is largely believed by conservation groups to have destroyed the area. Well, the place is certainly man-made, not a natural looking area!
.
Starving! So went to have lunch

Roasted tomato gaspachowith johnny cake - excellent for a hot day like this! Nice & spicy!
.
After lunch had a tour around the area by foot, not by golf cart like the others seemed to be doing.
.
Perfectly cutted lawns.
.
Stylish swimmimg pool
- 3 treadmills on the back in the shadows, just in case somebody feels like running, but not in the sun along the real roads like i would prefer to do.
.
Residental area
.
Different types of houses, something for everyone...
.
Quite many apartments are still for sale.
.
"April Fool" - nice yact! Probably owned by Bill Gates...
.
Left Baker's Bay behind and went back to HopeTown.
Burning in Hope Town??? No, just the fire brigade driving around, not really around as there's only one road to drive...
.
Caramelisious.
Actually had skipped the daily dose for a couple of days until now,
the waitress got worried what had happened...
.
On the way back to White Sound and home.
.
Hope Town is so picturesque!
.
Kimi Räikkönen arriving to Hope Town?

Going home before the sun sets down.
.
Dinner after the "hard" day at sea - bbq pork with avocado mousse & salad - great!
