a taste of Vermont

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unlike Bermuda, the Bahamas have no blockades stopping the American chain stores from cannibalising the local shopping scene.  You can drive downtown and see a Chili's, a TGI Fridays, a McDonalds, and a Pizza Hut.  And here, at Atlantis, you can find a pretty darned decent Ben & Jerry's where we got all hopped up on some new fangled flavour of chocolate and whatever else it was they put in it (the chocolate was pretty dominant judging from Charlie's shirt afterward).  But, over and above the ice cream, the thing they took back in their memory pouch and mentioned at random moments throughout the trip was the car ride toy thing that basically wiggled them about a bit with the weak strength of a small child but to them it was Days of Thunder 2.
