If you were wondering where I was I was in the Bahamas for most of last week. Took the family vacation with the 'rents to Paradise Island. And I took a lot of pictures. No an insane fill the camera to bursting amount of pictures. I took so many damn pictures I spent about $25 in batteries on that damn camera. Which makes me realize that my camera sucks ass. It's old and big and batterylife sucks and its getting beat the hell up.
But yeah it was great. Atlantis hotel is the hotness. Wish I had found out about it earlier. I really wish me and Melissa were still together to enjoy it. I could here it in her voice when I told her where I was going that she was a little miffed about it. I certainly wished things had turned out different.
Make it even worse I woke up all the time from dreaming about her. Wanting to know what she was doing, what she was thinking. It gave me plenty of opportunity to enjoy the night though. I watched a lunar eclipse from my hotel balcony, watched the surf in the moonlight, and enjoyed the sharks in the dark. It's a good thing the place is running 24 hours (well the casino anyway) because it was relaxing to take a stroll at 2am by the beach and listen to the waves break. I sometimes thought about sleeping out there then realized I would be eaten alive by the bugs on the beach.
Plenty of pictures and stories to tell later.

I am all too familiar with how resorts work in the caribbean. But unlike Jamaica, the Bahamian gov't was smart enough to secure enough beachfront for public parks before the developers took everything. But they have to pay a toll to get to the park.
Did I tell you how expensive everything is there? They must think I'm made of money or something.
