Last night as a Bahama Mama...

To make a long story short I did absolutely nothing exciting today. When I put my suit on this morning to bask in the Bahamas sun, there was an instant down pour. I was able to go out later for an hour in the overcast, windy, and humid weather. Ohh well...
Before I had to drop my dad off at the parent's reception he wanted to go the fish market. The market is located underneath the bridge to get off Paradise Island. It smelled absolutely horrible! It was cool but smelly. I forgot my camera so I couldn't take any pictures of the little shacks and stands. We found "The burning spot" still open and ready to serve us dinner. We order up so conch fritter, fried conch and peas-n-rice (which are actually beans and rice). For less the $10 we ate to the breaking point and had the best sea food on island! It was way better then the poop deck! Only time will tell if I get food poisoning from the possible unsanitary conditions that probably prevailed behind the counter.
Tonight my computer will be getting packed so this is where I say good bye to the Bahamas and my "vacation". When I get all settled in on the ship I will post again but I can't really say when that will be... Everyone take care and I'll talk to you soon!

Hey Babe!! Sounds like you are having quite a trip. And you couldn't have your dad bring me back some alcohol!?! Honestly! JK Oh jeez I miss you so much, I have no one to go out with. Cause you know none of our other friends are remotly interested in leaving their house...boring! So I think I might have to find some temps for while you're gone. Love ya!

I love you. I love you. I love you. I miss you. I miss you. I miss you. I am glad you and dad had some good sea food. Did you get to go on the ship and take a look around? It sounds like you are having an awesome time. I hope you get settled in nicely. Stay safe and God Bless!
