Fri 21 Nov- when we awoke and went for breakfast, the sea was much calmer. We decided to play Held and read in the Horizons Lounge. During and after lunch, we were approaching our port, Hamilton Bermuda. We sailed past beautiful tropical islands with lush vegetation, and fabulous mansions with yachts anchored in front.
After the ship docked, we disembarked and walked around the town. We found a flower shop where we bought Casa Blanca lilies for our cabin, and also picked up maps with tourist attractions. The GPS did not know about Hamilton, but we saved the ship's location so at least we could head back in the right direction. Hamilton is an attractive, clean town (a map and tourist info is at http://www.lookbermuda.net/bermuda.aspx?id=8002&client=undefined, and has a nice park downtown next to the library, the Par-La-Ville Park. We walked around for a couple of hours, then returned to the ship for the Quartet and then dinner.
We had dinner in the Polo Grill, a separate restaurant on Deck 10, which specializes in meat dishes. The view of Hamilton was beautiful; they have already started putting out Christmas decorations, and it is quite pretty. Stan had the 'Surf & Turf', beef and lobster; Kiyomi had the New York Steak; both were excellent; and we had Asti Spumante to go with it. For dessert, Stan had the special quintet of desserts, a little taste of five of the items on the dessert menu. It was a very enjoyable meal celebrating Stan's 66th birthday.
