Docked at Nassau, Bahamas -- June 4th, 2011

Occasion: Band Trip 2011

        Well, my first time in a different country. All I have to say is that I'm a bit disappointed; but that's partially my fault. Here's a little something about me: I adore culture. It plays a huge role in history and has shaped every country that exists today. When I stepped off the ship, the first thing I thought was Americanized. Basically, it was just a huge tourist place. But once you get passed the sugar coated tourism, you get to see the real culture, the reality. Unfortunately, I did not get to experience the culture of Nassau, Bahamas. This is because we had to be in groups, and my group decided to go to a beach and an aquarium near some stupid casino/hotel. Yay. I do plan on going back someday though and make up for what I missed.

-- When I travel I have no idea what's in store for me, but if I'm wise and understand the art of travel, I let myself go into the stream of the unknown and accept whatever comes in the spirit.
