I have learned to not fly through Newark, things often go wrong. In a nutshell I didn't get here on Friday because I couldn't make my connection in Fort Lauderdale and ended up in West Palm Beach where Jean and Richard graciously put me up for the night (thank you!!).
The Bahamas are experiencing unusually warm temperatures for this time of year but I'll try to tolerate it. On Saturday there was a Junior Junkanoo parade in downtown Freeport. Different schools were competing - don't know what if any prizes were given out. The little ones from the primary schools were very very cute and the ones from the high schools went all out. Great costumes, a lot with big feathery headdresses. Some had brass bands, some just the traditional drums, cowbells, whistles, all had dancers - was quite impressive.
Sunday nights there's always entertainment on the beach - a place called Tony Macaroni's - last night there was a jazz band and then a steel drum band - much preferred the latter.
I managed to get to the beach but haven't gone snorkeling yet. The locals tell me the water is too cold :)
Have to go the sunshine is calling me.
