Day Four in Nassua

Compass Point
We headed to Compass Point on my brother and sister in law's recommendation and had an Eggs Benedict breakfast. Yummy.
They say the sunset is only second to none and can be enjoyed from their pier that extends 120 feet into the ocean. I added a full picture of the pier at end of this post.
 These are some of the pictures of the 18 brightly colored bungalows that line a lush path of native flowers and towering palm trees. Each has it's own balcony to also see the beautiful sunsets.
 Chesley sitting in the restaurant below. Of course we were the first ones here. Had to take a cab here. Early morning. 

 Some of the bungalows were like tree houses.
 Some of the flowers that line the paths throughout the grounds.
 Then we headed to the Atlantis on Paradise Island. This is the Marina area. They allowed us here, in the Marina Market shopping area, and the casino. Really??? It was going to cost us $39.00 each to get into any other part of the Atlantis. Then an additional $40.00 for the aquarium and $120.00 for the Water Park. So needless to say we only lost $75.00 in the casino. Guess we have to stay there next time if we want to see any other part of it. 
 What they did allow us to see was beautiful.
 My dad always said, "There is always a bigger boat." Well this one was pretty big."

 Marina Market Shopping Street.
 BEST melt in your mouth Rum Cake I've ever tasted.
 Chesley wanted to taste some of the local beers. Here are two. He liked the one on the left best.
We came back much earlier then we anticipated because of our limited tour of the Atlantis. We didn't want to spend anytime in the sun today so it's the  Masters Golf Tournament in our room along with reading and relaxing. That is FINE with me!!!
 After Chesley finished critiquing my blog, he asked me to put this picture in so people can see the length of the pier.
