St. Thomas Virgin Island

Met Jamey tonight in Walmart and she is from St. Thomas Virgin Islands. We discussed Carnival coming up in April/May 2010. She invited me to join she and her sister for Carnival celebration. Apparently, the fare is very reasonable. Jamey has a job with my bank, etc. Connie Sue doing research for something new to do!

Back from Grand Bahamas November 2009

Grand Bahamas is a beautiful peaceful island. The United States economy has taken its toll on the island, however it is still as beautiful as ever. I have been blessed to have visited Nassau, Eleuthera, Andros, and Grand Bahamas and GB is still my favorite. The peoples are friendly and helpful. God will shine on this island again and jobs will come. I was inspired by this visit to begin taking groups to this paradise. Good food, friendly peoples, crisp green/blue waters, and fruit such lovely tasty fruit who could ask for more. Zorbas, Billy Joes, Simply Native are just a few great restaurants located in Grand Bahamas. Each day was filled with a new adventure. Fresh Conch salad at Port Lucaya from Dave, sweet Mango Dariquiri (non-alcoholic), hot Conch Fritters life is good. A big part of my day was spent discussing politics with the taxi and van drivers. One fella was FNM and the other PLP, both were convinced that their party was the best. I was thrilled to hear the stories and the reason they felt that their party was the best. While talking to Frank I thought I would like to belong to the FNM. Then the taxi driver whose name I don't remember convinced me that Perry Christie and the PLP was the only way to go. Both PM's are brilliant men and I look forward to the opportunity to talk with both of them.

Yes this was a great trip and I have my memories and pictures to prove it. I am now planning a trip to take a group in July or August. Some have indicated they would like to go in March or April we will see. Connie Sue back from the Bahamas where she had plenty to do!
