Nassau
Located on New Providence island,
Nassau is the capital, and by a very considerable margin, the
largest city in the Bahamas. The population of Nassau, was
210,832 as of the
2000
census - over two thirds of the entire population of the Bahamas.
Nassau is a popular tourist destination, with a tropical climate, beautiful beaches,
and a historic colonial architecture, especialy in the harbor area. Additionally, on
December 26th
(Boxing Day)
and January 1st
(New Year's Day), the city is host to Junkanoo, a loud, colorful and musical street
parade (first made internationally famous by its appearance in the James Bond movie,
Thunderbird). Visitors can reach Nassau by using
Lynden Pindling International Airport which lies only 10 miles (16 kilometers) from downtown Nassau,
and which offers daily flights to
the USA,
the UK
and
Canada.

As Winter, snow-clad and frozen, advances or retreats, they follow in his footsteps, and sport in the forests of verdure, and in the fields and bowers of bloom, that soon clothe his track of desolation with wondrous beauty. What nature denied, man has acquired for himself—a speed superior to tha- of the birds and outstripping the wind. His thoughts travel with the lightning, and, practically, space is almost annihilated by his steam chariots upon iron roads. Science, meanwhile, has explored and mapped the great ocean world, sounded its profouudest depths, discovered and described its shoals and rocks and winding shores, and, wedded to mechanical ingenuity, has enabled man, in the glowing language of the east, to "' take the wings of the morning and fly to the uttermost parts of the earth." Hence, after the dwellers in the north have each in his generation for untold thousands of years been snow-bound and ice- anchored, their descendants in our day are able at winter's approach, to migrate with the birds, and thus secure perfect exemption from its discomforts.
