Potcakes – a love story in Governors Harbour

Joe Louis – our potcake- goes to Nassau

This is the story of how Joe Louis our potcake goes to Nassau. Living on island like Eleuthera has some fantastic advantages but of course there are some things that are more difficult than if you live in a big city.
