Very cool. Faded and look like someone processed them through an Instagram filter, but they're the real deal. The place looked beautiful, even in smudgy old black & white.

And "The Bahamas" is a ridiculous term. Kind of like saying "New York" when referring to upstate as opposed to Manhattan. The Abacos in the Bahamas are stunning. You have a pretty narrow view, imho.
