A natural blend of traditional Danish and Caribbean architecture, this impressive residence located within the walls of the exclusive five-star Grand Bahama Yacht Club on the island of Grand Bahama is an escape like no other. Ownership also affords access to the world-class facilities of the Lucayan or Bahama Reef Golf and Country Clubs. Truly, this is the future of luxurious living in the Bahamas…and all just a 45-minute flight from Miami.

Hurricane Matthew was an extremely destructive and long-lived tropical cyclone which became the first Category 5 Atlantic hurricane since Hurricane Felix in 2007. The thirteenth named storm, fifth hurricane and second major hurricane of the active 2016 Atlantic hurricane season, Matthew wrought widespread destruction and catastrophic loss of life during its journey across the Western Atlantic, including parts of Haiti, Cuba, Dominican Republic and Lucayan Archipelago, the southeastern United States, and the Canadian Maritimes. Over 1,600 estimated deaths have been attributed to the storm, including 546 to 1,600 in Haiti, 1 in Colombia, 4 in the Dominican Republic, 4 in Cuba, 1 in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and 49 in the United States, making it the deadliest Atlantic hurricane since Hurricane Stan in 2005, which killed more than 1,600 in Central America and Mexico. With the storm causing damages estimated in excess of $10.5 billion (USD), it was also the costliest Atlantic hurricane since Hurricane Sandy in 2012, as well as the tenth costliest Atlantic hurricane in history.

I've spent the past week in the Bahamas. I'll be sure to upload more pictures from the trip once I have the energy to sit down and go through them, but I figured I'd upload a few first. This was taken at Gold Rock Beach.
Rather scrubbing looking in comparison to other jungle habitats, but hopefully this is just the first phase.

In einer der drei Deadman's Cay Höhlen - ich denke, die Cartwrights Cave - auf Long Island.
Südlich von Deadman Cay, die Hauptsiedlung zieml9ich in der Mitte von Long Island, liegt eine der faszinierendsten Höhlensysteme in der Karibik. Voll von Stalaktiten, Stalagmiten und Fledermäuse wurden die Höhlen einst von den ursprünglichen Siedler der Insel, die heute ausgestorbenen Zivilisation der Lucayan Indianer, ausgesucht, wie die Schnitzereien und Schriften an den Wänden zeigen. Es wird auch gemunkelt, dass die Piraten des 17. Jahrhunderts die Höhlen als Basis verwendeten und als Versteck für ihre Beute. ( www.bahamas4u.com/longislandcaves.html )
