Transatlantic cruise, Post 7: Nassau, Bahamas

After our 6-day stretch crossing the Atlantic, our fourth port of call was Nassau, on New Providence Island in the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. (Remember the song The Sloop John B - "around Nassau town we did roam"?) This was definitely my favourite port of call, and it was also the only one where we had sunny blue skies!

We wandered through the tourist shops, a small market where there were lots of handbags and some guys doing awesome wood carvings, and a few back streets as well. One of our favourite sights was the policeman directing traffic below! Nassau had a nice laidback island atmosphere and was definitely a great place to visit!
