Sandy beaches of the Bahamas lined with tall swaying pine trees. Rum punches and sparkling, turqouise water. Posh resorts with golf courses, giant pools, spas and vegas-type entertainment. Gridlocked traffic on small winding streets, casinos hopping with action; cruise-ship passengers strolling through the bustling straw markets. These are some of the images of Nassau, the tourist center and capital of the Bahamas Island.
