Bahamas 2007

To celebrate Marina's 50th birthday and also Allison's graduation, we took a trip to Governor's Harbor, Eleuthera, Bahamas. We rented a beautiful house there called the Capricorn House, which we found on the internet. It was built in the early 1960's on 16 acres right on the Atlantic shore. Fortunately it turned out to be as nice as we hoped, a real paradise in the tropics, and we all had a fantastic time.

The pictures below are in the following general order. House shots starting with the front gate, driving in, the house itself, then heading down to the pool area, then beach, then back up again. Not many people shots in here.

Then we're off to various beaches and fishing outings. Lots of people shots. Unfortunately we took most of these with the small point-and-shoot digital, and many came out a little "foggy". There's also a distinct lack of fish themselves in the fishing pictures, although we did catch a few.
