Better Late than Never

Can't believe it's been almost 2 months since we last posted on here. Been really busy and a bad internet connection at the house doesn't help much either. Been doing a lot of exploring around the island. Spent Easter weekend here together as a couple and have seen come cool things. As is tradition in Bermuda, we of course went to the beach for Easter. On our way to the beach, we went to the Spittal Pond Nature Reserve which is also home to Spanish Rock. The reserve is beautiful, while it doesn't have a beach, it certainly has an impressive shoreline. It also has a cow farm.  It is also tradition to fly kites on the beach and while we don't have a kite, we sure enjoyed the show and the relaxation.



I'm sure there's a Hereford joke here somewhere
Spanish Rock is really called Portuguese Rock 
This was a bronze casting of original engraving made in 1543!!
 After Spittal Pond, we made our way down to the John Smith's Bay for some R&R


 The following weekend we went to the Rugby Team's Mad Hatter's Ball at the Mariners Club downtown. Our friend Louise Park was working the bar in the beginning and made sure that we didn't go thirsty. For the party, I made what may possibly be the best beerbox hats in the history of beerbox hats. Now, anybody can make one with a 24 pack box and scissors, but only real men use 6 packs and a pocketknife. Honestly, it would have been a lot easier with scissors. But the final product turned out quite well.

What a sexy cowgirl face that is!!
