well here are some more adventures from my life in Bermuda.
May 24th was Bermuda day. The whole island stops to celebrate the history/heritage of bermuda. It was a wednesday and in the true fashion of our wednesdays (ie every wednesday since we have been here it has rained) in Bermuda the weather was crappy, cold and a bit rainy, but it didn't stop the day from having a great atmosphere.
We went out the night before and were shocked to find that people had marked out positions with tape on the ground and written their names on them claming prime position, some were even sleeping out in their claimed areas for the night to score the best view. We even heard of an incident where people were actually physically fighting over a postion to see the parade. In true Aussie fashion however we mozied down the road 5 mintues before the beginning of the parade, scored a good vantage point and didn't have to beat anyone up or sleep out for the night to see it all.
Marching bands, rockettes, flower floats, dancers, gombeys were all involved. It took forever to get through all the floats and we left before
Queen of the parade
back view.....had to do it...being a back fat suffer myself the end because it got very repetative. As good as it was for the time that we were watching I definately wouldn't recommend sleeping out to score a spot.....not THAT good.
Lets see, other things that have happened.....we had a BBQ at our guest house. It was a great Sunday afternoon, with yummy food and lazing by the pool.
I went fishing today and scored a few fish, they were yummy....the photographic proof is still on its way.....until then
later Kate
