Nightlfe in Nassau... or not

boom we're in nassau now, capitol of the bahamas. it's ridiculous, everything is moving so fast it seems... but no rest for the vacationing! the day was spent snorkeling off the shores of the island with some nice folk... saw the pretty fishes... they are slippery suckers and dont' let to get caught hahahahah.. it was tones and myself's 1st time snorkeling, so gulping down heaping mouthfuls of saltwater was the norm... but it was a blast and highly recommended.

Culinary Delight of the Day:
Conch, shellfish like things that live in, you guessed it, a conch shell. Manny tried conch fritters, kinda like hush puppies with shrimp, blah. i had he cracked conch, which is pretty much cajun-seasoned conch that is fried. that was pretty good. tastes like lobster or crawfish. good... but expensive. dangit, wish we had a pic.

we head back to boat, get some rest, and hearing the nassau is the capitol we figure, hey, it's time to go on the town. we roll out all nice like, and end up hangin' with 3 florida girls named Lea, Amy & Ashley (TWINS) and we go out to the Atlantis, a very nice hotel with, hey you guessed it, a water and fish type theme going. gambling and drinking ensue (i end up as Lea's defacto pimp somehow, it should've been manny) and we say, ok, enough giving money to the casinos, let's head out back to the main town. to which we find out... shoooot everyone is GONE. it was ONLY 1am, and everyrtying was closin' down?! WTF? all the other cruise ships that were there left port, leaving us with 75% less ppl. sigh, but it was good tho, becuz we headed back to the club and met a few ppl our age! (finally, it's been 21 or like 40 thus far) a few future counselors (jaya, margaret, and myrna) as well as margaret's bf jimmy (peds r1). very cool ppl, jaya has like one jiggy dance move that she keeps doing but it spins weird magic, just ask manny =) we find out they live like.. 4 doors down from us and just spend the rest of the night chillin'... all in all a satisfactory end to the night. sitting out on the veranda after taking a shower... just comtemplating life in the cool night air... life is good.
