Welcome to Bermuda
Secondly, for those who have been unfortunate enough to miss out on me talking about Bermuda non-stop for the last few months, a few basics:
- Not in the Caribbean, but east of the US. Close to New York, Boston, Washington and Miami and much closer to London than I was before (refer scale map below)
- Is not in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle - is one point of it, the others being Florida and Puerto Rico
- Capital is Hamilton - roughly three by five blocks in size
- Population around 65,000; approx half white and half black; half male and half female; a third expats
- The Island is 22 square miles in a sort of crescent shape. I thought it'd be easy to walk across but it turns out it's a lot bigger than I was expecting
- Great people - probably the friendliest I've ever met. Everyone says good morning / afternoon to everyone they pass on the streets
- It's hot.
Every now and then I'll update this blog with interesting little tidbits to try and entice you all to come over and visit... it's a chance in a lifetime... you'll never have the same opportunity...
