That is the jail of the island. There are three cells. Last time anybody was put in there was when captain Sawyer was a young boy – so about four to five decades back. We went and saw the house the chap had broken into too! Funny thing – the prisoner escaped from the jail in one hour!
By the way, the island has exactly one cop and an old ATV is the official “cop car”!!
No kidding, that was the name of our captain. He was born and brought up in Green Turtle Cay. We went out for a walk where he told us the history of pretty much every single house – those that were standing and those that were blown away by hurricane Dorian in 2019.
We also saw the cemetery where his parents are buried. And then finally came to a town square where his dad’s bust has been put up (for supporting the island’s progress).
Captain Sawyer’s daughter is studying in Tennessee and his nephew is in Roswell, Georgia. Which is one town over from me. I have a feeling this is not the last time I have seen him!!
As we sped from Nunjack Cay to Green Turtle Cay, Dipanjan suddenly pointed to something up in the sky. When I looked up I saw a sun halo! It was very difficult to take a good picture with the boat bobbing up and down in choppy waters. And pointing to the sun to take a picture is seldom successful.
But as you can see, there was a rainbow perfectly circular in shape around the sun. These are caused by cirrus clouds and are actually tiny ice crystals.
That was a great sight!
