Bermuda #1


Norm recently had a fantastic trip to the outstanding country known as Bermuda. He was going to write a lengthy post with pictures, but realized it would take time. (All my photos were shot on traditional 35mm. still film, and they have to be developed and scanned.) So Norm is writing this brief post with a single photo of beautiful Jobson's Cove. Here is Norm's quick overview of his dream vacation:

Located approximately 700 miles southeast of Boston, flying to the island paradise of Bermuda is well under two hours. And while it has a mild, temperate climate, it really can't be considered tropical. It is the ideal getaway for those that want bright blues skies and warm beaches, without getting too sweaty or hot. It has a safe, harmonious culture, as there is no real poverty or crime on the island. And almost everyone greets you with a hello or good morning as you explore this paradise.

There are public beaches located in all of Bermuda's parishes, but the ones located in Southampton are considered some of the best in the world. Jobson's Cove is located in Southampton, and is a must visit if one is ever there. Stay tuned. More to come.

Looking forward to the vacay pics. Am I the only person that thought Bermuda was more southern? Like south of Florida near the Bahamas? Thanks for dropping the knowledge Norm.

V, it cost Norm over $60 to get the photos developed, but it was worth it!! Really hope to write much more on the subject soon!!

Ffleur Norm did take tea!! It was a total trip hangin' with the Brits. They had those funky sandwiches with the crust cut-off. But Norm must admit tea was tough. It is supposed to hold you until dinner, but being an American boy, Norm likes a real lunch. (Dinners were over the top, though!!)

Thank-you. I really needed a vacay.

Sounds like a romantic trip, Norm. Did you get engaged or married?

HOLY LOOPHOLE ANSWER, BATMAN! But I'll let Norm have his privacy. But don't think LA fell off the turnip truck yesterday! ;)

p.s. Picture is gorgeous, hope we see more! You shooting with a D70, Norm?

Ffleur: In Massachusetts that would be possible!

LA: Norm is not sure what you mean by D70?

Norm, I should have said Nikon D70. It's a really nice camera.
