INDEPENDENCE AT 50
There has been a national celebration like no other since the country became an independent country in 1973. Every island, rock, and cay was taken up with a festive passion from road marches, junkanoo, formal ceremonies, galas, and sports meets. The photos of some of the activities. Congratulations to The Bahamas.
