Winter Getaway to the Bahamas

Cable beach at Melia
Looking to escape the cold in North Carolina, Jon and I spent a week in the Carribean. Although still winter in the Bahamas, their "snow" is a rain shower. We spent our time in Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas which lies on the island of New Providence. Neighboring Paradise Island (where Atlantis is) is accessible via Nassau Harbor bridges or the ferry. The biggest draw for us to visit the Bahamas was the swimming pigs, which can be found in The Exumas, an island chain about 80 miles away via boat.
