Did You Know . . . The Bahamas is
right around the corner off the coast of Florida (The United
States). Most Bahamians utilize this close proximity to the US
as if it were like taking a trip to your cousin's house for
the weekend. This frequent travel is and has been a way of
life from the beginning.
Did You Know . . . Arawak Indians inhabited the islands
when Christopher Columbus first set foot in the New World on
San Salvador in 1492. British settlement of the islands began
in 1647; the islands became a colony in 1783. Since attaining
independence from the UK in 1973, The Bahamas have prospered
through tourism and international banking and investment
management.
Did You Know . . . That the Junkanoo
Nachos you order at Kafe Kalik comes in over 6
colors? |
 Charlie
Kalik: The leader of the
gang, also known as the sexiest man in the Bahamas. Charlie
Kalik was the first guy in the Bahamas to do EVERYTHING! He is
the inventor of many Bahamian inventions such as the trolley
peg tops & home made scooters. He also coined the phrase
"Bones are for dogs, meat is for man". Charlie never seems to
be short of a woman and never lacks a sense of style and
fashion. Hey, who says polka dots and stripes don't go
together! |
