Our favorite 'Beach day #2' photos

On our second day on Bermuda we had signed up for an excursion called 9 Beaches beach break. We took a boat with about 20 other people to this amazing resort called 9 Beaches. The funny thing on the boat ride was that the excursion was supposed to take about 3 hours and when we got on board the captain started playing the song from Gilligan's Island about a 'three hour tour!' ... we laughed and hoped our fate would not be the same as those on the Minnow!

Anyway, 9 Beaches was fabulous! There were 9 different beaches all separated by rocks and coral and cliffs and there were these adorable little beach cabins spread throughout the property, most of which were overlooking the water or even IN the water! The ones in the water have glass panels in the floor so you can see straight down into the water ... so cool!

The beaches were all gorgeous and all the super cool little coves were fun to explore. Once again the girls and Bob loved looking for all the tropical fish and swimming out to check out the reefs. We only had goggles to use, but they didn't care and had a blast.


We decided that the next time we visit Bermuda we really want to stay here!! Isn't it just like a post card??

Crystal clear water and warm little tide pools ...
Oh yeah, did I mention that this day was also my birthday?? BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! This was at lunch time, sitting on the patio overlooking the gorgeous turquoise waters and beaches, sipping on a yummy tropical drink and eating fish and chips for lunch, with my favorite 3 people in the whole world - I was in absolute heaven and could not imagine a better birthday.

After a couple of hours our boat captain called out that it was time to leave and we quickly said, 'we're not ready to go yet!'. We were having such a great day that we decided to stay a few more hours and got a ride back to the ship later in the day instead of taking the boat back. It was worth it to stay!

Next ... favorite beach day 3 photos!
