It 'really better in the Bahamas?

'It's better in the Bahamas' tourism has been the slogan for the Bahamas as long as I can remember. Growing up in Miami, I was a short boat ride or plane trip even shorter distance from the Bahamas, the marketing was apparently part of my subconscious.

So when I was finally able to go to the Bahamas as one of the stops was my first cruise aboard the Carnival Imagination, I answered a question I had since I was 7 years old, is it really better in the Bahamas?The ship arrived early on Saturday morning and was not about to leave for 24 hours, so it would be a lot of time to find out.

When I finally go this morning (getting up early, after discovering the reason why I was calling the "Fun Ships' a bit more difficult than I expected) I went out determined to take care of some committees to take.

Errand number one was the girl who was in a way that I mentioned as a favorite of mind looking for them to call vacation.This was an opportunity to answer the question, it really is better in the Bahamas ... when it comes to phone calls at home. Nearly $ 8 per minute on the ship, hoping that thoughtfully at an affordable price to the ground. I immediately found a phone card and an Internet center, which is $ 0.20 per minute and gave me enough time to leave a very effective protection emotional (I married that girl from the street).

Errand number two was to find some gifts to return to the family.This time the response to the question was obvious: 'be better used for the Bahamas. What I got was from people who had been on all the wonderful shops in the Bahamas has been said, but my experience differs. I was over-priced, poor quality of the jewelry tourist trap.

Errand number three was to find a good offer liquor and duty-free, we call this a push: It is not much better in the Bahamas. The offers are not much better than what we offered on the ship, so Idecided to drag around bottles and bought on the ship.

After all the commission had finished I was able to get out and explore the island, except not really, because it was felt by many that remain around the tourist areas because many people were not too eager to leave the tourists on the ship at the "local" areas . So I went to Cable Beach and Atlantis, which was very impressive. The underwater tunnel aquarium were Sea World-style hotel and get up esthetic, it is really betterBahamas. Cable Beach was also very nice and comparing the sand and water to the beaches of Florida, is definitely better in the Bahamas.

Later that evening, I decided to ignore the advice to stay away from night club. I thought a night club is the kind of atmosphere, where tourists are just people with a couple of drinks and fun and could easily be confused with the locals. Without going into too much detail when it comes to nightlife, it is not entirely surebetter in the Bahamas. Nothing scary, but I do not know how most feel welcome patron.

All in all, if you look at the good and bad with you, I'd rather be at work? It 'better to the Bahamas!
