“BERMUDA, A QUIET LITTLE GEM”
………………In the late 80’s Jac and I used to frequent the island of Bermuda……The owner of Anne Klein, Mr. Tamio Taki, owned a beautiful very modern home on a hill with incredible views of the Atlantic ocean. He offered the house to us when ever we wanted it……The mode of transportation for most people on the island were mopeds or motorized scooters…There were three of them at the house, and we took them exploring all over the island which isn’t very large………The air flight from NY to Bermuda was only three hours so it was very convenient. Jac and I stayed at Mr. Taki’s home a few times. He had a permanent staff consisting of a cook, and a woman who took care of the house, and a man who took care of the grounds and pool……The beaches of Bermuda are some of the most beautiful in the world! The pink sand beaches are like walking on talcum powder. They say the pink color comes from pulverized shells……The men wear blazers with shirts and ties, and BERMUDA SHORTSÂ with knee high socks and dress shoes to work and out to dinner…..so when in Rome, or in this case Bermuda….do as the Bermudians do….In both pictures we were going out to dinner……The island is very British, and somewhat formal…..The Palmetto bugs are HUGE and plentiful! We used to stuff towels under the doors at night so they couldn’t get into the bedroom!…..The island also has a huge FROG population, and at night you could hear them croaking!…..All in all Bermuda is a little gem situated in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and is a wonderful, and often overlooked place to vacation. We had great times in Bermuda!
