These pictures were taken on Thursday, February 21st, 2013 between 11-12 o'clock in the morning. I was taking the pictures as I was walking across the smaller of the two Paradise Island bridges. If you like fresh seafood, this place is definitely for you. It doesn't get any fresher than the boat pulling up to the back of the restaurant! Of course, in the Bahamas, that kind've means that you need to like Conch because they seem to catch alot of these mollusks living on the ocean floor. Tried it, personally I don't care for it, but there are other fish dishes served of course.
In the above picture, we see what Potter's Cay is all about, no frills, no fuss, just a simple fishing boat pulled up to the dock behind a row of restaurants, note the empty conch shells.
And in the above picture we see the front side of the business, Donnie's Conch salad.
In the above picture we can see that this is definitely not the Ritz Carlton, or in the Bahamas, Atlantis, but you will not find a place that serves fresher fish!
In the bottom two pictures we see the general overview of the area as seen from the smaller of the Paradise Island bridges, the relation between Potter's Cay and the main island, New Providence.
In the below picture we see the Bahamian national pasttime, dominoes. Everywhere you go, its not uncommon to see men playing this game. They play it quite forcefully too I might add, actually slamming the 'bones' onto the table!
There are so many Bahamian elements to these pictures, that I would consider this picture to capture a signifigant essence of the Bahamas, it is quitessentially Bahamian.
