A few weeks ago I took a working vacation when I was asked to photograph a friend's wedding in the Abacos. All expenses paid and my gift to them was my photography. There were eight people in our group and we spent 3 hours on the wedding and the rest of our seven day stay fishing, snorkling, surfing and drinking. Here's a few pics from a great trip to Guana Cay in the Bahamas.
Our rental house had five bedrooms, two kitchens and plenty of room to move about. It was on the beach in a perfect location on the Island
The house had a balcony all the way around it with an awesome panoramic view
Here's what the view looked like to the left
Here's what we saw to the right
The sand had a wonderful color and texture to it and even looked a little pinkish in color
Believe it or not Guana Cay gets some great surf and everyone in our group was a surfer so we came prepared just in case. Here's a surf check at one spot using the Islands main mode of transportation, a golf cart.
Hurricane Dean went the wrong way but we still managed to find something ridable and the best man rode the best wave of the trip
If it's rough we go surfing and if it's calm we go fishing and we caught some beauties off the beach right behind the house
Hermit crabs were everywhere and they are comical to watch as they make their way to where ever they think they need to go
One was lucky enought to catch a ride
We rented a boat and went snorkling off Bakers Bay looking for Lobster. We didn't find any but the reef was breathtaking with all the fish and live coral
While we got skunked on the Lobster we did manage to score enough from a local to have a nice dinner back at the house
After dinner it was time to watch the sunset and every twist and turn of the island offered a beautiful view
After sunset we would take the cart over to " Nippers " which was a cool little beach bar and slam some Nippers Juice which was some special concoction made from five different Rums and stuff. After about four you would feel like you're floating. It was out of season for the tourists so we had the place to ourselves left to fight off the amorous advances from the locals.
Usually on a trip like this I try and bring a model to take advatage of the beautiful location but the girls were too insecure and banned me from bringing a friend. If I did bring one I would have taken some pictures like this
That's what our trip to the Bahamas was like. Now one more look and then it's back to work
