It's three days before one of the biggest holidays in the Bahamas; Emancipation Day
It would not be so this year, 2020.
COVID 19 has canceled everything... On this beautiful island of freedom, Eleuthera there are usually at least three 'Home Coming Festivals' one in the south, one in central and one in north Eleuthera.
These festivals bring in revenue to the island businesses and the airlines in particular.
This year though all that has changed.
Almost every country around the world is somehow locked down with the COVID 19 pandemic.
Today, a storm is heading towards the Bahamas. With the aftermath of Dorian and the effects of the Pandemic on our doorsteps, there is much for Bahamians to be in a panic mode.
The rise in positive cases within the country has more people frightened as we have no clear information as to why the virus is spreading.
Bahamians must take heed to what is going on around us and prepare for no matter what.
This should include, batteries and searchlights, bottled water, canned foods, candles and matches, and other foodstuffs that could last for at least a week.
This is the time to talk to the younger children to make them aware of what may happen if the storm affects the Bahamas.
