Although it's called Paradise Island, it doesn't mean all's paradise. Here are a few discoveries that made my heart sad:1. We admired the beautiful rocky coastline, but I was astonished by the loads of garage & debris that had washed onto the rocks & rotted there (i.e. chairs, bottles, plastic, clothes). As a Green-girl, I sadly wondered, "Who's responsible for this?"
2. There's alot of fine dining here, Carmine's is our fav. They have the best atmosphere AND best food. But I also observed an obvious distinction: the patrons were one race; the servers were another. Maybe it's just the way things are. It still made me sad.
3. The poolside cafe would not serve alcohol to 2 underaged teen girls. So they went to get their Dad. The Dad came up and told the bartender it was OK to serve them. So the bartender did. This hit a sensitive nerve; I wish I could've stepped into the moment & saved them.
