This was our favorite spot. We found it our first day. It's Heydon's Chapel and was built in 1604. It's very beautiful. The whole village uses it everyday. They get together for morning prayer, afternoon chant, and night prayer. What a cozy village it was.
Gibbs Light House is the oldest, and I think the only working cast iron light house in the world. It was really fun to go into. All of the houses are perfectly white on the roof , with gutters doing a maze into a basin (each person catches and saves their own water). The yards are mostly perfect little patches of grass with perfectly painted houses.
We won a cruise to Bermuda from Stampin' up. It was for Iraq Veterans. What a wonderful person the owner is. She donated so many of these trips to veterans. We were so grateful.
This is the Crystal Caves. Two little boys found them years ago by chasing after their ball that fell down a hole about 150 feet down. They climbed a rope down and found the cave and a big pond from the ocean. It's beautiful.
I think St. George was my favorite city. It had cobblestone streets tons of beautiful shops, old churches, fortresses, and colorful houses.
So I always thought Bermuda was a Carribean Island. I was totally wrong. This island is totally different from any other I've been to. I loved it for it's uniqueness. The whole island is 21 miles long. It only took us about 1.5 hrs to drive from one end to the other. They only rent scooters to tourists which I loved. Ryan thought it was his duty to use it as his dirt bike (never buy a rental I'm sure all men use them as their off road vehicle). Every day we went out and explored, our favorite was finding old churches, or abandoned houses and riding our scooter on the old railroad trail. The beauty was so different and clean from most places I've been. The water is more blue than anywhere else I've been. At night we headed back to our cruise ship to eat a good meal and get a good nights rest for the next day. We went scuba diving to a ship wreck. How cool is that! Where else are their ship wrecks all around the island. We drove right through the Bermuda Triangle, and dove to one of the ships who have been mysteriously taken. :) Ryan got the gash from us snorkeling at Chruch Bay. The waves were huge and I was knocked right onto Ryan who then hit right onto the coral. But wow it was beautiful. The fish were huge and bright as well as the coral. I was just glad the bleeding didn't attract sharks to eat me.
