We set on the Norwegian Sky, my best friends and me, around Nassau Town we did roam, Kaliking all day and hanging at Fish Fry.
If the Beach Boys were to update their popular hit song “The Sloop John B”, these are some of the words that would have to be added.
No trip to Nassau is complete until you have at least sampled a cold “Kalik” and conch salad especially if you do it at a place like Fish Fry.
With the benefit of local insider information, better than the stuff on Wall Street, my friends and I leave the Norwegian Sky with a cooler half filled with ice.
Although it is a Sunday morning, we make a stop at a well stocked establishment along the Nassau waterfront and add some Kalik to our cooler.
Kalik is a rich tasting beer, born and brewed in the Bahamas. Now Americanized or Mexicanized with Lime, I still prefer the Gold.
Equipped to complete our “Sloop John B” mission, we walk towards Senor Frogs. From here, we make our way to the front of the Hilton Hotel where we catch a “jitney”.
Our destination, Fish Fry, a local Bahamian hangout for great food and good times.
We are welcomed at our first stop where they are showing the Miami Dolphins, Oakland Raiders game.
Orders are placed for conch fritters, cracked conch and of course conch salad (spicy) along with more Kalik, Rum and Tequila.
Fortunately for us we don't get into a fight and manage to make our way back to the port via Bay Street. New friends are made and “Facebook” pictures are taken as we return to another Norwegian Sky party.
Sadly, it's time to sail away from Nassau and return to Miami. Life's just not fair but at least the party eases the pain.
