Gosh, the first sandy stretch I graced my feet upon in the Bahamas was a real doozy. The water was drop-dead gorgeous and crystal clear, and I couldn't help but feel giddy at the sight of so many vendors peddling boozy beverages and scrumptious snacks. Plus, the excursions were a total blast! I was having such a blast that I ended up getting a little crispy from the sun, but hey, who cares when you're having this much fun? I swam, sunbathed, sipped, and savored some of the freshest fish I've ever tasted right there on the beach. I was practically beaming with joy at how much I was relishing the atmosphere and the friendly locals.
