Nassau

Talking over everything we had on our agenda, I could not wait for the plane to land, so I could see the beauty of the island. Hours later, after a connecting flight in Atlanta, Georgia, we were on our last leg of the flight. I remember flying over Florida and seeing the coast separate from the ocean. Being up in the clouds, flying over the ocean is a view unlike any other. It’s beautifully breathtaking. After what seemed like an eternity of staring out at the ocean, the pilot said we were going to begin our descent into Nassau. The second we stepped off the plane, I felt the humidity set in. In all honesty, I was a little disappointed at first. When you go to a tropical island, you expect perfect weather, with a beautiful view, and really, just to be impressed. Disappointment washed over me because of what I saw. It was extremely windy, the sun wasn’t shining, and the humidity was high. We found our bus that would take us through Nassau to Atlantis, the resort we were staying on. The bumpy and winding bus ride lasted at least 45 minutes, but I actually enjoyed the ride through the town because I got to see something different than what was familiar to me. Graffiti presented itself on the walls and run-down buildings surrounded us. Unlike in Orange City, people freely used their car horns. There were numerous times when a break in the buildings would appear and I would see hotels. Always hoping the resort that we were stopping at would be ours, I often…

The US Geological Survey tested the performance and effectiveness of the Basins in 1969. Their study analyzed data gathered from three basins located in both Nassau and Suffolk county. All three basins had different shapes and drainage area sizes in order to determine an average performance from all the systems. To determine the effectiveness, the basins were analyzed in three different areas: Precipitation-Inflow relation, Runoff Hydrograph, and Rates of Filtration. The three basins analyzed…

I have moved in Nassau County since September 2013. Nassau County is a very good place for children’s grow and development. Also it is a very quiet place to live. My whole family likes to live there. However, we still have some health issues in our community such as obesity, Diabetes Mellitus and so on.Obesity is defined as an increased body weight in relation to height, when compared to some standard of acceptable or desirable weight. It has become a global health issue. The worldwide…

article “Doyle’s Dauntless Dory: USS Nassau and the Evolution of Carrier-based Close Air Support” because the topic of close air support caught my attention. I had heard and read stories about aircraft carriers, but never about amphibious assault ships so I figured I could learn something interesting. In this article, Godspeed supports and argues the role that the U.S.S. Nassau, and…

Would you like to visit the Bahamas? I would like to visit the Bahamas so that I can see the blue water, go on a cruise, and visit the island of Nassau. I would like to see the pretty water. Going on a cruise to the Bahamas would be extraordinary . Learning about pirates in Nassau would be awesome. The Bahamas have beautiful blue water. Sitting by the clear water would be relaxing. Because the water is so clear it is easy to find seashells in the sand. Watching the animals through the…

Perfect Day I have many perfect days and bad days but one I will always remember. We were on our 4th day on our cruise in the Bahamas and we ended up in Nassau where we had the day planned we were going to Atlantis the waterpark in Nassau. Nassau was nice but a storm was coming which looked cool. We got on the bus and went to Atlantis. The traffic was crazy at Nassau, our driver was driving like a crazy man. The turns were fast, he was speeding like there was no speed limit, and it was insane.…

It was August 21st, 2014. The day I would leave to go on a Disney cruise! My grandparents and I were going on a 3 night cruise to Nassau, Bahamas. When we arrived at Port Canaveral the ocean breeze was like heaven. First the Carnival Sensation Departed. Then our ship departed from Port Canaveral around 2:30 PM to the ships musical horn playing “A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes”. The Next Morning We arrived in Nassau. I woke up at 8:00 AM on August 22nd to find the ship still in the ocean, but…
