Sniff... last day! Why does time go so fast when you're on vacation? I had heard about this little restaurant, Conch Fritters, the oldest and most popular restaurant in Nassau, while talking to the locals on Friday. So I decided to head into town with Pat for one more taste of Nassau. We had a nice…

I learned how to dive while living in Hawai'i and unfortunately do not get many opportunities to enjoy it.  There is something about diving in a quarry or off the Jersey Shore that doesn't appeal to me as much as, Bonaire. haha My father dives as well so we booked an excursion with Stuart Cov…

Well, I turned XX this year and spent it on a surprise Carnival cruise to the Bahamas. I kinda had a sense we were going on a trip, but didnt want to spoil the surprise, so I went with the flow... Man was it a good time!! We arrived at JFK on Thursday afternoon and flew to Miami with crappy …

Carnival Glory docked in Nassau around 8:00 a.m. It had been a short overnight sail from Port Canaveral. But, port time would be limited as we had a much longer voyage ahead to reach St. Thomas two days hence. We disembarked and walked over to Festival Place, the customs and welcome center. I …

Good food, interesting culture, beach... no room to complain!

Sharks...sharks and more sharks

We docked on a cloudy morning, but we were able to take some pictures of the scenery from the boat. Our first adventure called for a short boat ride to a little island known as Blackbeard's Cay. There we were to spend the morning relaxing on the beach. However, the boat ride took 1/2 hour each way,…

I've been meaning to do this for a while now. Finally, I'm posting some random photos from my last 5 years of traveling. Just sharing the beauty of this world - enjoy! =) ***Still not finished uploading ALL the photos, so check back again later!***

We reached Nassau at some point when my sister and I were still in bed.  We like to sleep late. :)We met my dad and his girlfriend for breakfast and then Kim and I headed out to explore.We visited the straw market, which I do recommend.  However, I was kind of disappointed.  Each lit…

So, here I am again. In Nassau, Bahamas. I always find it funny when I pull into this port and see two military ships parked in the basin. It seems kind of awkward for such a small country to have a Navy. Maybe they use them for drug busts or something, I guess that would make sense. Anyhow, I had …

I visited Nassau for the 1st time in July of 2007 -  August 7, 2007. My husband had gone home to work teaching for the summer. He left for Nassau 2 weeks before we found out I was pregnant. I had extreme nausia so on the plane I just kept praying I didn't throw up on the newly weds next t…

The wedding was absolutely perfect.  It took place on a beach at the Old Fort Bay Club in Nassau.  The cocktail hour was on a roof deck (amazing view!) and an incredible dinner of lobster tail and filet followed in the club.  Live entertainment, dancing, drinking and friends made for…

There isn't much to see in Freeport, and I wouldn't really recomment anyone going there. If you do plan on going to the Bahamas you should go to Nassau. They have a lot of bars, most with live music all night and day. The locals definitely like to get your business in their shops (or stand for that…

I had just been engaged and was on a 3-day weekend cruise to the Bahamas with my new fiancé and my parents.  We had spent the morning in Nassau doing some really awesome snorkeling and had wandered into town to eat.  I had been to Nassau once before and loved it so I was pretty excited t…
