Bermuda.....

.......is gorgeous!!  We had such a nice time on the cruise, but the time actually in Bermuda was just awesome.  Here are a couple pictures:

This is the ship at night while we were docked.  It's bigger than it looks.  Near the bottom of the ship are full grown palm trees.
This is the view we had from our balcony.  We docked in the Royal British Dockyard.  The building in the distance is an old fort the British used until the early 1900's to defend the island and to house prisoners.  The double clock tower building is now a mall.


This is the requisite self portrait of me and my husband. 

The shades of blue in the water are so beautiful.

Every day when we got back to our room after dinner, we had a different towel animal.  This one cracked us up.  It was hanging from a vent above the bed and wearing my sunglasses.  We decided it looks like a turkey.

We went on a 3.5 hour kayak tour of the island, which was loads of fun, but we were afraid of the camera getting wet so no pics of that.  We kayaked (is that a word??) a mile and a half out in the ocean to see a shipwreck......totally worth the sore arms the next day for the effort.

Oh, did I forget to mention the 55mph winds we encountered on the way home??  Thank goodness I had good motion sick pills.  Laying in bed, the curtains literally stood out 90 degrees from the doors.  It was crazy!! 

So that's my trip.  Now it back to the real world.......bummer!
