Main Island versus Out Island life


Main Island versus Out Island life

Hi.  It's Lyn again.  I didn't get any feedback from the other recording, so I thought that nobody really wanted to listen to what I had to say, but I kind of missed recording, so I decided to make another one. And this is just a…I guess a comparison between the city life and –that's on the main island of New Providence, and what we call island life, which is actually out-island life or family island life.

Life in the city is, of course, more hectic.  There's more cars.  There's more people.  There's more pollution.  It's still pretty.  The beaches are really lovely.  The sky is usually great unless you're in hurricane season when it's rainy; but it's just better-everything is better times ten  as far as clearness in the nature, as far as the water that you can see through.  It's just everything's closer to get to; life is simpler.  So it kind of depends on what you like.  If you're a bustling club, night dancing-that kind of life person, then you'd prefer the city; but if you're like me and you prefer things to just be super, sweet, nice, simple, beautiful, clean, unpolluted-then you'd prefer the out islands. :)
