The wind is still howling but that didn't stop us today. We braved the dinghy ride to town again and, after a little walk about - decided to rent a golf cart. We had to get a big one to accommodate the large group we were expecting to cart around. The vendor had to, first, change the tire and, second, fill with gas. But, after that, we were good to go. You can't really get lost on Elbow Cay. We ended up heading towards Tahiti Beach at the south end of the Cay. We were there the day before we came to Hope Town - it's a cute little spot. There is one part of the route that brings you high on a cliff overlooking the ocean. The wind and sand were fierce. The sand blew over the road and left drifts like snow. It was incredible. We all got out to brave the elements once more standing at the top of the cliff.
When we got to Tahiti Beach, we were more protected and did not feel the effects of the wind as much. It was a nice break. We walked the sandbars, picked up and examined lots of sea biscuits, urchins and sea cucumbers.
