Coming Home To P'Tit Louis ~ March 5th, 2009
We did a 34 hour trip from Bimini to about 5 miles north of P'tit Louis and dropped anchor there for the night. It was not recommended that we attempt the entrance to Black Point at night. The next morning, it was as if we could not sail fast enough, and that 5 miles seemed like and eternity!
Our first sighting of Black Point!
And of P'tit Louis with a full crew, along with our great friends Kimberly & Bruce of Nice & Easy.
Fendered and ready to raft up to them our Starboard to their Port.
It was so surreal to meet up with them here in The Bahamas, as we had been planning and working towards this for 2 years. There were times when we felt that we would never actually leave and meet this goal!

Blayde, Valin and Drake are on the bow line, Paul on the spring lines, and Olivier, Nathalie and Matthew ready for action.
Immediately after we were safely rafted (tied) together; Patrick, Katherine and Rupert of Noka came aboard to join the welcoming party. Rupert was really excited to see Free Spirit (The boys) again :-) There were hugs, kisses and tears during this reunion, and we were all really happy to see each other, and to meet in this Island Paradise!
Blayde and Rupert having a bonding moment!
Safely together again in the harbor in Black Point, Exumas, Bahamas.
