We arrived around 11 AM at Nassau. It was a partly cloudy morning with a very comfortable
temperature. This was the port we
substituted for Grand Turk. We
decided to just wander around downtown for a few hours. There were several other ships in port
as well as us but it didn’t seem very crowded. We supposed that a lot of people went to the beach or to Atlantis
to gamble.
Nassau has the usual souvenir shops and jewelry stores. We wondered how three Diamond
International stores on one street manage to survive! Katie will be taking a motorcycle safety class next weekend,
so we headed into the Harley Davidson shop. If she’s going to be a biker, I thought she needed a H-D
shirt. We ate lunch at the Hard
Rock thinking that perhaps they would have free wi-fi. No such luck. Oh, well, we’ve made our free internet minutes on board last
for most of the trip.
After a nice lunch we headed back to the ship. There was a long line to go through the
Bahamian security check. They
actually did look at a photo ID.
Once back on board we went up to the Sanctuary for a final couple of
Scrabble games. Miracle of
miracles – I won another game!
Katie is still the tournament champion, but at least I wasn’t skunked.
This evening we had a very nice sailaway as the sun was
setting. It gave a golden glow to
the Atlantis Resort in the distance and the ships still in port. For our last evening we decided to eat
at Sabatinis one more time and we had a lovely meal.
