The only other place in the world that I'd live besides England. We covered the whole island on our little scooter, from the fort in Somerset, to the Cup Match, to the parade through Hamilton, shopping at Triminghams and huge cocktails, listening to ...

Time to relax and explore
The only downfall about traveling at Christmas is that you have a few days of public holidays to deal with. Everything on the island is closed until Dec 28. This was an issue when cruising during the holidays. If you only have one day in port and that ...

snorkeling
Today we enjoyed some more snorkeling. I wish we could put the pictures of the fish online, but we took them with a waterproof disposable camera, so we won't have them until we get back. The water here is absolutely gorgeous. We've never seen anything ...

Flying small planes, the railway trail, dockyards
In the morning, Robert wanted to show me his plane. He has several of them (models) and flies them regularly on a football field near Shelly Bay. The plane flew quite well until it crash-landed. It wasn't broken though. So, no serious damage. We went ...

Day 1 At Sea (Day 3 of the Cruise)
Monday, day 3 of the cruise and day 1 at sea. The temperature was about 80 degrees when the wind would come off the ocean (a little chilly for me, but I survived). The cabin is so dark, unless I have an alarm I don't get up until around 10:00 AM. I ...
The first day at sea

Day Five – Last day as a free man!!
Greg Hartley from Hartley's Undersea Walk Bermuda called and said it was too rough to go out today. He told me about a private beach he sometimes goes to. The owner is not usually there, so it should be safe to trespass. I was a little ...
Lighthouse and dunking
Today, Robert took me on a tour of the Island. We went to see the "abandoned" US Naval base. It's incredible to think that all these buildings were formerly occcupied by the US Navy. Now, half of the buildings are un-used. We went on to see St-David's ...
the Pretty factor
