Rare perfect match Posted June 7, 2015 #186 Share Posted June 7, 2015 We Floridian Melbournians don't permit improper temperatures at our beaches .

I did notice Pat's jacket in the picture next to the bus, so I thought it might be a bit chilly. While I'm looking at your awesome pictures, I keep thinking you should make them into a calendar. It would be beautiful! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pemcorgimum Posted June 7, 2015 #188 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) Great photos of Bermuda. I much preferred the improper temperature of Bermuda to the heat of Miami the one day we were there! ;) I remember saying as I walked out of the hotel, how can anyone live in these temperatures ? We get the warming gulf stream too, in Wales! It just stops us freezing up in Winter as we are on the same latitude as Labrador in Canada but we rarely get snow and only a few days below freezing. So thanks for sending the gulf stream to us. :D Edited June 7, 2015 by Pemcorgimum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really did think that Bermuda has some of the most beautiful beaches that we have ever seen . :) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember as a young man going surfing in near freezing conditions . But the water was 35 degrees warmer than the air ! We usually vacation in the late spring or fall to cooler climates in an effort to shorten the long summer and to avoid the hurricane season . Our summer pattern in Florida was a little early this year , so you got a little of it . So we were glad to get to Bermuda - the beginning of the cooler European weather . We just don't care for cold water ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted June 7, 2015 Author #193 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Heading up to the road at South Shore Park , we stopped for some parting shots . My favorite The throne room The overlook And the bus stop A pink pole is the bus toward Hamilton while a blue pole goes away from the city .

jenseib Posted June 7, 2015 #194 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Those beach shots are stunning. Make me want to head to the Caribbean but it does not look like that will happen this year. My Mom is pushing for another Princess cruise, but it would have to be dirt cheap for me to be able to pull it off. And I think I would have to bring my daughter along this time around. LOL. Plus I can hear my husband's grumbles.....so probably won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't swim in the sea here anymore. I've experienced warm seas now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
