If you are looking for things beyond the bars, I heard this stuff was cool that I didn't do.... wild

How to see and explore the world on a middle class salary... This web blog details everything I learned budget traveling to 6 of the 7 continents in two and a half years. But I'm still traveling to see more anyway! :) Hopefully everyone can pick up some tips to see the world without spending a fortune seeing it.
The Bahamas, a series of islands that are just a short flight away from Florida, and also the actual location of my first international hampton inn savannah trip. I went to the Bahamas in early 2002 on also what was my first spring break. I was 20 years old and fairly inexperienced with travel at the time so did not make the most of my time there. It was also over a decade ago so my memory is shady... and uhhh... there was quite a lot of Bacardi flowing so that didn't help with the memory either. If you are thinking of going to the Bahamas here's my take, it is a great place to go, I've been twice! But consider your time frame...
Try to get your scuba certification prior to going, I screwed up, it was 10 years ago and I totally didn't get to dive, it's one of the best places in the world to dive, or so I've heard. I'm in the process of getting my PADI card now, will hopefully be back one day!
Do remember by all means even though everyone speaks English you are not in the states, I was in a taxi late night one evening that military pulled over with ak-47's and forced money out of the guy, be on guard just as much as you should be in any foreign hampton inn savannah country, especially at night or anytime you are not on the beach, you'll see on the drive from the airport to the resort hampton inn savannah you stay in that it is a different world there when the ocean is not in view, be careful.
Rum, rum, and rum. It's cheaper hampton inn savannah than beer, bring some home... Don't drink the whole bottle though, me and one of my buddies did, I ended up on the hotel balcony at the Holiday Inn At Junkanoo Beach sleeping in emesis... Went back to that room later in life... Ahhh stupidity moments of travel.
If you are looking for things beyond the bars, I heard this stuff was cool that I didn't do.... wild horse preserves, iguana spotting, swim with the dolphins (finally did that in Africa), golf, do an underwater cave tour at Thunderball Grotto, and above all guys and girls, if you are going to booze, drink a lot more water than I did. Hangovers can be brutal even on a tropical beach as beautiful hampton inn savannah at the Bahamas!
