There May have been beads in the Bahamas...

View east out our front porch in Nassau, Bahama. No beads.

Back from our deep immersion week in Nassau, Bahama. We spent the bulk of the week with the Chief Curator of the National Museum of  the Bahamas learning the ENTIRE history of slavery in the Bahamas. Long, long days, visiting many historic sites, artisans, archives, viewing actual hand written slave records from 1725. Ate conch every day but one. I personally drank as much yummy rum as time allowed---not to give the impression that I'm a lush or anything.

But! We literally spent all our time working. There was not one minute to hunt for beads!!! Never fear...there will be beads searching this Friday at the International Gem & Jewelry Show in Chicago.
