FOUR REASONS I CHOOSE THE BAHAMAS

  • My mom and dad traveled there. And told me cool stories
  • I wanted to know why it was so famous,and everyone wanted to go there.
  • It is not connected to us. So I wanted to learn if life was different then it was for us here.
  • I thought it would be a fun place to learn about, and research all the history behind it.
