Jun 30, 2008 - The Bahamas!
A quick 45 minute flight and we were on the island of New Providence in The Bahamas! We checked into our hotel and headed straight to the beach a mere 30m walk from the hotel across the road! The beach was deserted as we were staying out and away from the big resorts (purposely and what a great choice!) so we spent a few hours on the beach. Geoff was snorkelling for ages and loved it! Still not as amazing as Rarotonga he reckons! Later in the afternoon we caught the bus into Nassau downtown and had a wander around. ... Talk about cruise ship mecca! People everywhere, shop people trying to sell you everything.A quick 45 minute flight and we were on the island of New Providence in The Bahamas!
