Nassau

Nassau lighthouse and Atlantis
This past winter, we went from the Berry Islands to Nassau on our boat. We stayed in Nassau for several days, and enjoyed visiting the aquarium at Atlantis, eating in the restaurants, and I bought some Bahamian produced gifts. I also had a filling replaced by a dentist when one fell out of my tooth. After we left Nassau, my husband had a heart attack and we returned to Nassau where he was diagnosed and from there we flew to Miami for an angioplasty. We returned to get the boat and sail it home. Photo is of the lighthouse at the west entrance to Nassau harbor. Atlantis (Paradise Island) is past it on the left and the cruise ship docks are on the right.

For the narrative about the visit to Atlantis, see the Paradise Island page. For the narrative about the return to the boat after Bob's heart attack, see the Coral Harbor page.
