Baha Nomad vs. Bajamas Nomad
Hmmmmm???
I just had a great idea for a new website & forums. No wheels required. Choose: (1) rudder; (2) wings.
It's "BC" no matter how you cut it: Bahamas Commonwealth or Bahamas, Caribbean.
Who wants to sign up as User #1 ???

What?!?! It's been 5 hours. And I haven't gotten any funny replies? Snide comments? Or geographic observations.

I think because partly no one got your Mnemonics. It should be Baha Mas, not with a J, that signifies baja or Mexico. I for one love the Bahamas, I
have been there several times. Although the humidity and the mosquitoes can be troublesome, I have been to Eleuthera, Bimini and Abacos...and would
love to return when I get to that neck of the woods..and after all, this is a Mexican based Baja forum so I gather no one is interested in the Bahamas
if they are posting or reading here for the moment.

Thanks, (I don't even know your name). You're probably right on. Some attempts at humor simply don't work. And geography is what this website is all
about. If you find yourself in or near Florida, get in contact with me. I'd love to hear about (or go to) the BAJAmas. I really like David K's
mnemonics.

I didn't respond because, to me, the Bahamas are just about the crummiest place I have ever spent a few days.
Could not wait to escape,
"no joy" in that place IMO

Wow the Bahamas are the coolest place around!! Sorry Bajarunner you don't like them, probably cause you hate humidity. But humidity is good for your
skin, it hydrates everything. And the water is so clear and warm...!!

Never been there BUT if I was anywhere near Florida I would be all over the Bahamas. Either by boat or seaplane.
Seems there are enough islands to find whatever adventures you're after.
I would love to do it in a fast catamaran!

Tried the Florida thing a few years ago. My uncle told me, "You'll be back". It's true, you will too. Nothing compares to Baja. 
I yam what I yam and that\'s all what I yam.
