Cruising to Bermuda

We stepped off the boat at about 8:30 am yesterday morning after a lovely 7 day cruise to Bermuda. For those who have not heard our story, we met there 25 years ago this month.

We are not your normal cruise attendees. That is for another post.

We did manage to explore and re-discover Bermuda and recreate memories from 25 years ago. We found the house that Murg rented on Brighton Hill Road. We found the beach where when snorkeling I thought those giant fish were nibbling at me.(3 inch long ones) We took the mail ferry around Hamilton Harbor, got off at Belmont and literally hiked over two hills to Warwick Long Bay Beach. We took a ferry from Dockyard to St George's and then buses back. We swam again at Church Bay; a wonderfully protected and beautiful non-tourist beach.

We were pretty proud of ourselves that this was all on a 3 day bus/ferry pass for $28.

The cruise was relaxing and peaceful and active all at the same time. Our daily exercise was 8 laps of deck 7 for 3.4 miles. We found our favorite restaurant was "Windows" and ate there most dinners toward the end of the cruise.

Back into the fray of the mainland I still feel as if the ground below me is moving and I need to make small adjustments to stay upright.

Our pictures and the pictures we took with our eyes will be what we have until we travel there again soon!
