Check out this Mexican jumping beans. I got to know them by watching a movie…the beans jumped to someone's glass in the movie. But in reality, they don't jump – they just try really hard.

There were no taxis at the Nassau airport. So I asked a guy about where to get a taxis. He said I will take you. Two minutes later, this white stretched limousine pulled up. I gladly obliged. Note the leopard carpet and champagne glasses….all high-class.

The Sivananda Ashram is on Paradise Island, a five minute boat ride from the main Nassau island. The place is pretty isolated and with lots of tropical plants. As it is the low season, there are only a dozen people around. In the winter, I was told guests can sometimes go up to two hundreds. But it does not get lonely. There are all kinds of animals to keep you company and the daily schedule of meditation and yoga cleanses the anxious heart.

Deck right next to the beach for yoga classes. The water is much more beautiful than in this dull picture. This is really not too far from Paradise.

Beautiful sunset after a cooling storm. Again, the stuff itself is a thousand time more stunning than the picture. See video below:

I also saw the most serene moon light on the beach one night. The beauty of the nature is divine. As to the Yoga retreat and what it did to my spirit/heart/mind,  I will write about it later.
