Nassau, Bahamas - Atlantis & Alanis

30 minutes by air from West Palm Beach is the Island of Nassau - one of the larger of the 700+ islands in the Bahamas. A local Radio Station whose hosts: Paul and Young Ron, were offering special prices on rooms at the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island, complete with a special broadcast Patron tequila party!... Free Patron tequila drinks, shots, or any combination - did I mention FREE. Well when times are tight, economy sucks, stock market at all time low, the Cubbies lost their chance at the World Series again this year - - - - the only thing you can do is . . . . party in the Bahamas! Oh, did I mention Alanis Morissett was performing there too - Susan and Wayne booked a flight on Spirit Airlines, grabbed their passports and took off for that spec of land in the Ocean called Nassau. The bus ride is always fun as the British influence dictates that drivers drive on the opposite side of the road. The Atlantis rises up from Paradise Island like the mythical city under the sea. In and out and around the resort are the most fabulous aquariums that provide hours of fish watching. We swam, sat by the pool, walked on the beach, dined, went to the comedy club, sat on the second row for Alanis Morissett's concert (she was great) and had a great time - Thursday - Sunday. A great way to kick off the week before Susan's Birthday.
