Day #8: It's the small things that can make the biggest difference. Take wifi for example. In the US it's ubiquitous, fast, and generally free (thank you McDonalds). Wifi is everywhere in the Bahamas and everywhere it's password protected. Because of this, lots of pay-for-service hotspots exist. The problem is that while these services take your payment quickly they usually offer slow connection speeds. Enter the enterprising entrepreneur. The local Texaco station is the cruiser hotspot because they have inexpensive food and fast, free wifi. Oh yea, they sell gas too. So here we sit with our $1 cup of coffee checking the weather forecast. If you find yourself in Nassau and need an Internet fix, Texaco's password is 'porkchop'.
Weather is starting to clear... Still in Nassau. 0nm today and 312nm total.
