Image a coconut tree growing outside your house on the beach. Have you ever drank coconut water? It is great!!! Just take a great big knife and cut the end off and pour it in a cup. My little boy likes to stick a straw in the coconut and drink it.
People on South Andros make rice with pigeon peas and cook it with coconut water. The taste is beyond description.
Life on South Andros is peaceful and relaxing. Even if you have to get up and go to work, you don't mind because the sea gulls wake you and there is always something to smile about. The sea food is in abundance, and when the ladies cook the homemade bread it is better than what Momma used to make. The ladies on South Andros make a wonderful sweet potato bread. (Hint: Your waist line will expand if you don't enjoy the long walks down the beach). There are small bananas that grow on the island called sugar bananas and other great tasting fruit.

Winnie,
This truley seems like a beautiful place. I can only image how wonderful that coconut milk taste. When my family and I was there for a brief visit we did see people drinking it. Maybe this winter I will have the opportunity to come bakc through and enjoy seating on the beach drinking coconut milk.
