Diana, I am sure you will fall in love with Bermuda just as we have. We
were there on land packages twice in the 70s, then in recent years did 4
cruises there. When are you sailing? I am kinda behind on emails and
other stuff these days.lol

This is one time I hope you will write a review when you get home!!

To be correct Bermuda is an overseas territory of the UK. As such they
self-govern, have their own postage, parliament, premier and laws. They
have no seat at the United Nations but are represented by Great Britain.
Nevertheless, they have their own immigration, customs. Upon entering
your passport is not stamped as Great Britain, it is stamped as Bermuda.
They are in some way a hybrid between sovereign nation and colony. In
this sense both parties are correct.

Bermuda is an overseas territory, a colony, and a country. Just because
it is not independent does not mean it can not be called a country.

Dianna and husband board tomorrow for their cruise. A tropical storm is
taking dead aim on Bermuda, probably will hit tomorrow. They could have
an interesting crossing.
