Thanks to the internet, anyone in the world can write about any place in the world. An unlikely source of praise for the beauty and tourist values of the Bahamas was the
McAlester News-Capital of Southeast Oklahoma. Joy Crutchfield, the author, wrote a wonderful travel article, and she seems to be sold on our islands.
"There is a place where the warm waters of the Gulf Stream regulate average temperatures to a blissful 89 to 74 degrees in August and a balmy 79 to 63 degrees in December. This haven for winter weary Americans is located just shouting distance from the Florida coast; it's called the Islands of the Bahamas.
"The 29 idyllic Islands of the Bahamas are rather low and flat, with a subtropical climate.
"Tourism is the number one driving force in their economy so there is an amazing array of adventures for every age group.
"Is anyone up for world class diving in crystal clear water? How about deep sea fishing, parasailing, jet skiing, water skiing, or snorkeling? Scuba? What have I forgotten? If it can be done in or on the water, the Islands of the Bahamas offer it to you.
"There's duty free shopping, an energetic night life, casinos, ruins, and more to experience in this British Commonwealth nation where English is the official language.
"Beaches in the Bahamas are among the most beautiful and most expensive in the world. Owning a piece of the Bahamas is limited to the ultra rich, but the average American traveler can also enjoy the white sand and turquoise surf. Many major American cities offer daily flights into the Bahamas. Most Americans elect to stay on either Paradise Island or New Providence Island, home to Nassau, the capital city."
Read the complete thorough, and excellent public relations,
article by Ms. Crutchfield. We thank her for her praise and enthusiasm of our gorgeous islands.
