Lazy Day on Bimini

Categories :


Saturday, March 7 was a day of rest for us.  We slept late, at breakfast and decided to take a walk.  The morning was cool so it was perfect to take Piper for a walk at the Bimini Sands Nature Trail.  We were encouraged to visit this natural area because it is rumored that there are investors who want to purchase this land to make it into a resort.  It seems that this may be more true than false as there is a new Casino in  north Bimini that is reportedly beautiful and expensive and provides much for the Bimini economy.  

The trail wanders through the forest and adjacent to the ocean.   There are some ruins and some placards identifying a variety of flora and fauna.  While reading one of the placards we could hear some rustling in the leaves.   Looking down at the trail we saw hermit crabs moving across the fallen leaves.  There were many “do not touch” signs identifying the Poisonwood trees.  The sap from these trees can cause a terribly reaction worse than poison ivy.  We stayed way far away.   

The afternoon was spent at the infinity pool.  The view says it all.
