Day 1: Calypso

We are finally able to enjoy the beautiful Bahamas weather and water! The turquoise water is as warm as a nice bath - not nearly as calming as one though... Being on the Atlantic ocean the Calypso house always has massive waves crashing on the beach.  So massive in fact that one raked me over the coral while attempting to drown my 8 year old nephew Aidan.  Luckily Aidan was unharmed but I opened a nasty gash below my right knee.  Fun part was I believe the blood seeping out actually did draw in a shark that was spotted a bit later!

We've spent our first full day enjoying everything Calypso has to offer: expansive deck with comfy lounge chairs, hammocks and a nice breeze to help dissuade th heat of the day. Other than a riveting debate on the prices and conditions my nephew charges for squirt gun refreshes, the day has been spent tanning and wave hopping.

My parents have already scouted out tonight's sunset viewing destination, a new resort that recently opened. So stay tuned for an upload of the first picture worthy event.

For now I'll just enjoy the view!
