How about some island reggae music to start your week off. Let me introduce you to Mr. Yagga Yo. The reason I wanted to share the song, "Lovely Day" with you is mainly because of the video. The video was shot on beautiful Harbour Island and North Eleuthera in the Bahamas. The song isn't bad, I'm not a huge fan of the auto-tone singing. Maybe a little bit here and there, but not the whole song … [Read more...]

It's going to be about the FBI and one scary smart kid's quest to escape justice. Meet Kenny (pictured above), he is a local security guard on Harbour Island in the Bahamas. As Erin and I were tooling about the small streets of … [Read more...]

I was a kid in a candy store the whole day. Inside, I was pinching myself and thinking, wow I can't believe I'm here doing this. I had to act somewhat composed though, because I still had to play the part of the cool, calm and collected boyfriend. I'm a bad actor though and I'm sure she saw right through me. Today's Photo Friday was taken by my girlfriend Erin on Harbour Island, which is a … [Read more...]

Conch You Very Much – Diving For Your Food, Bahamian Style

by RUMSHOPRYAN on November 5, 2010
Fishing and I don't agree. I use to do it when I was a kid in Kansas and have tried a couple times here in southwest Florida. I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. I find it boring and pointless. I rather sit in the boat with a cold drink and concentrate on relaxing. But in the Bahamas it's a little different and I enjoyed every minute of it. The fishing we did wasn't with a pole and … [Read more...]
