We woke up to the boat pulling up to the island of Bermuda. It was very cool to watch! After a leisurely breakfast in the dining room, we headed off the ship. Outside, it was a beautiful 82 degrees with a little breeze. We walked over to Battery Park and found Snorkel Park, our beach for the day. We rented an umbrella and some chairs and relaxed. What a beautiful beach!!! On one side was a rock formation that jutted out from the beach, and the other side had the fort that once protected the island from pirates.
There weren't a lot of people there as many of them went to the popular beaches that get so crowded. We had real bathrooms and a snack bar!!! The water was so warm that even I went in and swam for a bit. Colin and Tatum enjoyed finding shells and building sand castles with daddy. We wrote their names and the sand and watched as the tide washed them away. Tatum was too funny with her goggles and had a blast in the water. Colin decided he didn't need his bubble and just swam along without it or a care in the world. We met a family from England and Tatum made friends with little Isabella. They played with sand toys for quite a while. Colin enjoyed a little break with some water and pretzels. They had some music playing as well. Before we realized it, 5 hours had gone by.
We headed back to the ship and had a light lunch and a rest before dinner. ( I miss those dinners!!!) After dessert, we changed and decided to go back out onto the island. We walked around and looked at the boats. We went to the clock tower and browsed at the shops inside. Tatum and Colin picked out some key chains and I found a very cool handmade ring. Outside, they had a juggler and some music playing, as well as, some local artists and chefs. Very cool:) We came back to find a towel bat hanging from the ceiling with my sunglasses on:)
