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.

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! |
