Great start to the New Year (except in Football)

We are getting adjusted to our new life in Bermuda and starting to become accustomed to being in such a different place, though it really isn't that different. Nick, me, passed his driving test and I got my license, on the first try might I add. I also seem to be healed from my accident and have even been able to jog around the neighborhood and down by the bay. Sarah just started busy season so she is working quite a bit though it doesn't seem as bad as it was in Charlotte for her. I finally got our wedding venue booked today with a lot of help from my parents. We will be sending out e-save-the-dates pretty soon and are looking forward to having our wedding on the one-year anniversary of our marraige.

The VT-Stanford game was on the last day of Sarah's vacation. About 6 hours before it was supposed to start, the power at the house went OUT. But it didn't happen to the whole, island, only to us, and the neighbors. We should have taken that as a sign to stay home but we had to go watch our Hokies "play" in the Orangeyagladyoudidn'twastethemoneytoflydowntoMiami&watchusLose Bowl. So after playing cards for a couple hours by candle light, we went down to the bar to watch the game. Only it was Canadian hockey night so we sat in the corner and cheered for our team between hockey cheers, only they closed at halftime so we had to go down to the shady local bar. In honor of our defeat, the power at the house stayed off well into the next day. And then the Pats lost to the Jets so as far as I'm concerned it's BASKETBALL season now, go Celtics!!

Nothing else really to report, starting to make some friends on the island and enjoying nightlife and lack of snow. Been to the beach once since our last post and I went down to Devonshire Park to buy a lockbox for our bike and took some pictures of the park. All we know is that the first winter back in the states is going to be ROUGH, but don't have to think about that for a couple of years.

 Devonshire Park

The Captain makes it happen (and also walks down the stairs) 

 Down the stairs is the nicest sand I've ever walked on and the bluest water I've ever seen

 Feeling like a rap star at club moon - most of the roof is glass so you can see the stars and moon on the dance floor, pretty cool place and apparently I'm a big deal there. The 4 ladies walked in before me and I got beeped walking through the metal detector with my flask and my knife in my pocket. Bouncer kindly asked me if I wouldn't mind leaving my flask at the door (got it back) but handed me back my knife and let me go inside, with a weapon. Metal detector obviously a great investment. So here I be wit 4 shawties and my blade in da club ya herd!! haha. But seriously, the only reason I bring a knife out is because it has a flashlight on it for the walk home.
