Sunday March 11, 2018 - Layover in Hatchet Bay (Alice Town)

Robert and I dinghied into the town dock at around 11am.  I had read great reviews about DaSpot (bar and grill) and wanted to go there.  Alice Town is a somewhat impoverished town but, like most places in the Bahamas, the people are very content and friendly.  We had to get directions a couple times and when we got to DaSpot, we found that they were closed.  There were two other restaurants so next, we walked to the Front Porch - run by Francis (who also controls all the moorings in the Bay).  It too was closed.  So, on the way back to the boat, we went to the small resort/restaurant Two Brothers.  There, we met and talked with the restaurant owner Carolyn and her friend Ash.  Carolyn has lived in the US for a good part of her life.  They both live together and admitted they are both looking for "husbands".  We had a great lunch and really enjoyed talking to Carolyn and her friend.

We got about 4 gallons of water for the boat and carried it back the 1/3 mile when we realized there was a spigot about 400' from the dock.
