This is the funny part of the whole event While I was being interagated for too many bullets , I was driven around in private vehicles in Naussau I had my Jim bag with bullets in the back seat with me while my escorts and arresting custom officials were sitting up front with no one in the back...

There is a fear of retribution When you are in the Bahamas , You do not dare go around and tell anyone the customs official just ripped you off for $100.00 because you didn't think a receipt was important. You don't go around and say anything when you have been charged $2,500 cash for to many...

We'll I guess I made all the mistakes for a first time adventurer. First I checked in at Bimini and was asked If I wanted receipt , and I said no , so instead of being charged the $ 300.00 standard charge , the customs man tacked on another $ 100.00 for a dingy. always ask for a receipt. I...
