My friends have raved about Atlantis Paradise Island Casino as one of the best in the Caribbean. It's apparently huge, and has Cain at The Cove where you can actually gamble poolside! There are DJs mixing beats while people lounge on cabanas and day beds outside, so it's really the best of both worlds during a vacation. I'm dying to check it out!
Summer is almost over which means the season is about to change and in the Caribbean believe it or not, we have seasons too. Recently I have been thinking a lot about Christmas, as I am trying to decide where I want to spend the holidays. Now one thought led to another and I started thinking about the traditions that we have in Jamaica during Christmas and a special one that came to mind, but is not around much anymore is Junkanoo.Junkanoo is a type of street festival or carnival where masqueraders dress up in traditional African inspired costumes. The festival started during slavery and has continued throughout the years, but in Jamaica, unfortunately it is dwindling. I remember watching Junkanoo as a child in downtown Kingston but because the festival is almost non-existent these days I am thinking that I may want to head to The Bahamas this Christmas to getaway and also take part in their annual Junkanoo festival which is still going strong. It's a great part of the Caribbean culture that I do miss in Jamaica.
A while back my family and I visited Eleuthera, one of The Out Islands in the Bahamas. We love diving so we decided to check it out. We swam through the Current Cut, but really the tide moves so quickly that the water was carrying us through the passageway between Current Island and Eleuthera. There were so many beautiful and colorful fish and Eagle Rays. The cut is for more experienced divers, so I recommend going with a guide if you're interested in taking the ride!
