I'm Here!!! ~ Nassau, Bahamas

Atlantis Paradise Island

Nassau, Bahamas

Hey guys I just got here. It was very tiring getting here. The guy at the airport was real nice who helped me with my bags...then I got a Taxi (taxi's here have nice cars)....however, while on the way to the Atlantis (about a 20-30 min drive it seemed like)....a bus ran into us. ... we were stuck for like 10 minutes...and the guy happened to be his cousin. haha Then when I got to the hotel they told me to check in at the wrong spot so i had to walk all the way around...long story short im sitting here waiting for my bags to be delivered. Then I'm off to try to find a phone card possibly.

My roomate isn't here right now...she went to check in on the boat...I guess we can check in early? I'll have to figure out. I have nothing to do. I guess I'll change after I get my bags and go walk around.

It's very hot here. It was supposed to be in the 70's...the pilot said it was 82 but it's REALLY humid. My fingers are all swollen and I had to take off my rings. It hurt, haha. OHHH on the plane...I almost didn't get my backpack to fit in my carry on...I had a hard time with it. Hopefully I can fit some more stuff in my suitecase or maybe the people at the ship won't be that strict...cause right now I have a tiny bag of stuff other than my two carry ons. I want to take a nap but I'm in the Bahammas and it's beautiful. The Atlantis is HUMONGOUS I feel like it would take foreeeevvver to see everything around here. My view from the room is really pretty too...it's a bunch of palm trees and ...a water fountain and ....I'll have to go check out what those rocks are..maybe a hot tub? There's even a casino!!! Crazy. I think I'll save gambling for when I'm back at home and have money that I can spare. Maybe I'll do one slot. I really don't see the reason though since I don't know anyone yet.

Did you know that in the bahamas they have cars that have the steering wheel on the right and on the left...I asked the cab driver why and he chuckled and said "because they come from different countries"....haha. The toyotas and the hondas had them on the right....hmm, that's weird. They also drive on the left side of the road...there was tons of traffic and people drove so close to each other...hence my taxi driver and the bus. The internet is 10 bucks a day here so I think I'll just get that $10 pass. It's one hour ahead here by the way so it's already getting dark :( and I want to go out and explore. Hmmm I'm sure there's something else but I'm hungry and I'm going to call to see where in the world my bags are.

LOVE YOU GUYS. MUAH
