Bermuda: Feel the Love

I'm back from Bermuda and begrudgingly getting back into the routine of things, starting with this here blog post.

The vacation was everything I wanted it to be -- relaxation by the beach, plenty of sun, delicious food (even if it was enough to feed me for a month), and quality time with the fam.

Bermuda itself is a beautiful island, and the fact that it is Britain's oldest remaining overseas colony is immediately apparent. From driving on the left side of the road (but no mopeds for us on those narrow, winding roads!) to daily tea time (mmm... who can resist tea sandwiches?), we were able to experience the feel of Britain with the perk of a clear blue, pool-like ocean and not a single cloud in the sky for most of our stay. We really lucked out!

Highlights of the trip were snorkeling with all the amazing fish, spotting a couple huge sting rays visiting us in very shallow waters (with one literally attacking Molly head-on!), jumping off the now-infamous Reefs rock, making the requisite tourist visit to the city of Hamilton, and playing Sorry! on the beach (even though I never won in 5 tries).

Check out my Flickr for a full photo diary. And if you know anything about my family, you'll know that despite the enormous number of photos posted on my page, there were about three times as many more where they came from. Enjoy!
