Nauti-Girls

If you’ve followed my posts in the past, you may have read how much I love being near water. While vacationing in Bermuda, my girlfriends and I spent most of our time either in or near the water…..you could call us, Nauti-Girls…..HA.  The trip’s timing happened to coincide with America’s Cup yachting race, however on the days we were in the area the teams were either practicing or resting. All teams had been eliminated with the exception of New Zealand and the USA which would be competing for the victory.

Even though we weren’t able to watch the teams race, we still were able to enjoy activities near and in the water. We decided to spend one day at the beach, which turned out to be one of my favorite day of the trip. The ocean was beautiful shades of blue and the water was crystal clear to the bottom. The current was pleasant as the water bobbed up and down and carried in gentle waves. Swimming and wading was a vacationer’s dream. I didn’t want the time to end.

Another day we decided to take a sight-seeing cruise of the island’s most famous people and areas of interest. It was the perfect day to be on the water with a gentle breeze, calm seas and plenty of sunshine. As the captain and crew guided us along the shoreline and out into open water to get to the next location.

While we were making the long way back to the dock, the Oracle (Team America) and Emirates (Team New Zealand) of America’s Cup were practicing for the upcoming race. WOW, they crossed our path, which was an amazing sight to witness. Flying across the water at an almost unbelievable speed. It was a great end to the scenic island tour.

Even though a few more days would have afforded  us the opportunity to watch the race and perhaps go back to the beach, I am thankful we were able to spend the time we did enjoying the weather, sunshine, blue waters, boating, swimming and being all around Nauti-Girls.
