Freeport

David Wright
The Port of Freeport was fairly nice although I wasn’t prepared for the industrial look of the area when we approached, and it seemed that this island (Grand Bahama) was something of a has-been. I think I read that it was really hopping in the sixties with celebrities, casinos and new hotels. We went to the International Bazaar, which was barely open (it was early), and did some shopping. There was a kind of one-man steel band playing and he remarked about our taste in selection of bags. He seemed to know which vendor we had dealt with from just looking at them. I can’t remember her name but she was the oldest lady there, I think. Wifey has exceptional taste in trinkets and such. If you, or those with you don’t, just ask the one-man band who to buy from. I have since read that there is a place called “Ocean Motion” which is supposed to be a very pretty and relaxing place to spend your day in Freeport / Grand Bahama.
