Isle of Pines welcomes visitors of renown...
An
elegant, luxury cruise ship, the Crystal Harmony, called

its way from San Francisco to Sydney, for the Olympic
Games. Among the 845 passengers delighted to discover
the unspoilt island, were eight former Olympic champions.
They included Nadia Comaneci,
wonder of gymnastic wonders at the Montreal Games in 1976,
where she won 3 gold medals and 2 silver, and at the Moscow
Games in 1980, where she took away 2 gold and 2 silver.
