Searching for One Particular Harbor: Escape to the Bahamas

By Gordon England

Did you ever want to run away to the islands? Escape the world and chase elusive tropical paradise? My wife and I did just that. Full of middle-aged crazy, we fell for Caribbean enchantment, sold our possessions and drove our boat to the Bahamas where we lived for three years in sun drenched paradise filled with adventures. We explored many harbors far from tourist traps, caught more than our share of big fish, and dove on spectacular reefs. My job with the Bahamian government allowed me to see another side of island culture not seen by tourists. When I look back at these pages, I see blue Atlantic waters, taste cheap rum, and hear seductive thumping of steel drums. We made life long friends among Bahamians and expats from all over the world. We also had our share of hurricanes, hardship, and misadventures. At times we almost went out of our minds, though we look back now on those years with wry fondness. Much of the time, laughter kept our sanity. Visit my website at www.islandtales.biz while reading this book to truly see island beauty. Who knows, maybe you too will chase your dreams.Here then, is my mostly true tale of life in the tropics.
