Designed 40-minute rectangle with city’s streets I succeded to feel it’s main point. Buildings seemed old, but not tumblevdown . I would refer them to the boundary of 19 th and 20 th century. There were plenty monuments around, which seemed very flavorous with numerous palms and bushes. All together reminded about past greatness and might of colonial center.

About high point of present election in neighboring USA expressivly reminded poster “Bahama for Obama” . Streets around the port were looking dirty , and I didn’t had any desire to turn into smaller deaf dark alleys .

Street in Nassau

Only very center looked worthy of respect, plentiful policemen weared into funny white uniform of soldiers of century before last. One of central in city’s ensemble was high and sharp , like bayonet , monument for memory of dead during war actions of First World war ( frankly, I have no idea what happened here ). Memorial marble plaque said “In grateful memory of the sons of this colony who made the Supreme Sacrifice in the Great war 1914 – 1918. Bahamians: let this of you be said, that you who live are worthy of your dead. These gave there lives that you who live, may reap a richer harvest, ere you fall asleep.”
