Bermuda

The next port on our cruise was Bermuda. This was by far our favorite. Beautiful island!! We spent the day zooming around on our scooters. It was a blast! It took Matt and Sean awhile to get used to driving on the left hand side of the road though.

Our first stop of the day was Fort Scaur (when pronounced like a pirate it sounds much more fun). I thought it was a sort of creepy place, mostly because we were the only ones there, not to mention the long dark staircases and hallways.


After that was a stop at the lighthouse. I think it was Gibb's lighthouse, or something like that. It was the first lighthouse I had ever seen up close.

Then some shopping in the big city of Hamilton. The craziest part was driving on our scooters through a "backwards" round-about!

Our last stops of the day were three BEAUTIFUL bays. Jacobsen's Bay (seen below), Horseshoe Bay and Church Bay. They were all amazing!


Sarah got a little baggie of sand from almost every island. Here she is filling up her bag with the pink sand on Horseshoe Bay.

These two pictures were of us at Church Bay. This one was really infested with these little jellyfish called Portuguese Man of War. It was what kept us out of the water!!

Oops. Silly me.
