Miss Chiquita says---"Enjoy, Pin All You Desire--NO Pin Limits":

In wait for spring, snow is falling Escape to the idyllic islands of Bahamas Create your own adventure, the palette is ready Framed by a gorgeous, mesmerizing blue sea Eating a banana can lighten your mood Soft and lovely coral sand, a pink sunset Get away from the cold and explore new exotic locations Many hidden gem to discover, just ask Christopher Columbus 02.03.2017 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) (unrhymed couplets) Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Hello Anne-Lise, Your words here have sold me on the Bahamas. (I lived Florida for a year after I retired from the Army in 1996, and was about one-hour's drive from Coca Beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Not the Bahamas, of course, but not so cold as it is here in Europe!!) I would imagine that Christopher Columbus did eat a few bananas when he arrived in the Bahamas. A neat write and theme. I will tell Ingrid. Perhaps we'll make it there one day!! A Giant Seven too!! Cheers, Gary
