Atlantis Architecture and Grounds

The grounds of the Atlantis are beautifully landscaped.  We spent some time enjoying both the features of the buildings and the flowers and walkways on the property.

Rental of These Rooms is Expensive

The Overcast Sky Made the Visit Comfortable

I Wish We Could Have Seen One of These Rooms

Elaborate Head Dress Displayed in the Hallway
Me, Mick, Gloria, Brandon, Chris, Austin & Tracy Overlook the Extensive Landscapes
The above picture is one of my favorites.  It was unplanned and Walter took it before anyone knew he was focusing.  It shows that all eight of us were unified in our enjoyment of our trip.  Like Chris said, "We came together and we will leave together!"

On our last trip to the Bahamas, Walter & I had not visited the Atlantis.  This trip I wanted to see the grand resort and I am glad we did.  It offered a half day of seeing sculptures, elaborate decoration, well-designed grounds, shopping at high-end stores, a dolphin area and an aquarium.

After we left the resort area, we went into Nassau.  Walter bought $14.00 of jelly beans.  By contrast, Tracy & Chris bought diamond earrings and necklace.   They are sweet!

And thus ended our day in Nassau.
