Kunyange zvazvo ngarava yacho "yakazununguka uye yakakungurutsa" mhiri kweAtlantic, dutu, zuva remhepo raiva raifadza. Vazhinji vedu vanofarira kufamba-famba havafunge kuti dzimwe nguva vanofambisa ngarava. Zvechokwadi, chinhu chimwe chete hachikwanisi kutaurwa nokuda kwekufambisa ndege!
Zvose zviviri zvemazuva egungwa (uye zororo rose redu) zvakaita sechibhururuka. Zvinogara zvichishamisika kuti nguva inokurumidza kukurumidza sei kana iwe uri muzororo, asi inenge ichiita sokukwezva iwe paunenge uri kubasa! Chikepe chiduku chakafanana neSeas Navigator hachina mhando dzakasiyana-siyana dzezvinhu zvakawanikwa pazvikepe zvakawanda zvakakura zvekutya, asi kuchine zvakawanda zvokuita. Vamwe vatasvi vanogadzira miviri yavo muchipatara kana spa.
Vamwe vaifambisa pfungwa dzavo nehurukuro kuBermuda, bhiriji yemutambo, jigsaw puzzle, kirasi yekombiyuta, kana chiratidziro chekuita. Kana pasina chimwe chezvinhu zvakataurwa pamusoro apa chichikumbira kune vamwe vatasviki, vanogona kugara vachiwana chidzidzo kubva purogiramu yegorofu, vanobatana neboka risina nyuchi, vanoenda kunzvimbo yekudhirosa, kutamba bingo, kana kugara pachigaro uye vanofarira bhuku rakanaka.
Chikepe chacho chaiva nechirongwa chevana, asi chaiva chinyararire uye chakakosha kiyi. Kushamwaridzana kwakasununguka kunowanikwa pazvikepe zvakawanda zvekutya kunonakidza kune vamwe vana nevechiri kuyaruka pasina chavanoshaya kubva kune Seven Seas Navigator.

Iyo Compass Rose inotanga kuzarura kubva 7:00 - 9:00 manheru manheru oga oga.
Ndinoda kukwanisa kudya apo ini ndinosarudza uye wandinosarudza. Kuzarura chigaro kunokubvumira kuita izvo chete.
Zvizhinji zvezvikepe paSeas Navigator zvinomwe zvine mabhecheni uye kuva neranda rekugara paBruddha kune imwe nzira yekurapa. Vane Seas Navigator vanomwe vakatengesa muchikepe paHamilton, Bermuda mangwanani. Ngarava yacho shoma yakakwana yekukwira zvakanaka mudhorobha Hamilton. Bermuda inofanana nemifananidzo yakaisvonaka nemifananidzo yandakaona yechitsuwa chacho. Kufamba muchikepe kwaifadza. Zuva rakanga riri kupenya pamusoro pezvivako zvekare zvechiwi, uye chinhu chekutanga chatakaona chaiva chechimiro cheBermuda uye kusashaiwa urombo kunoonekwa kune zviwi zvakawanda zvechiwikidzi. Aya maipinda mahombekombe eWamilton neSt. George akanyanyisa, asi Seven Seas Navigator igwa duku rakakwana kuti rifambise kuenda kumahombekombe.
Dzimwe ngarava dzega-cruise dzinofanira kukwira kuWest End yeBermuda pedyo neRoyal Naval Dockyard.
Bermuda chitubu-chitsuwa chakakwana chezororo, uye iri muAtlantic Ocean anenge makiromita 650 kumabvazuva kweNorth Carolina uye anenge 775 maodzanyemba kumabvazuva kweNew York City. Bermuda inoshongedza uye inokomborerwa nemamiriro okunze anononoka, mabheti ane makwenzi, vanhu vane ushamwari, uye makwara akaisvonaka egorofu. Bermuda inongova zviwi zvezvitsuwa zvakawanda muAtlantic Ocean, dzimwe dzacho dzakabatana nemabhiriji.
Zvichida mufananidzo weBermuda unonyanya kuzivikanwa ndewezvivako zvekare uye mabhandi madhishi akabatwa nemvura ine gungwa rinopenya. Zvinotarisirwa kuti mabheji haana kutarisa kuti pinki patakashanyira, asi zvirokwazvo tinoita sechinhu chinopenya mune mamwe mifananidzo yangu. Go figure.
Sezvatakaongorora Bhurudha, takakurumidza kuona kuti nei yakakurumbira kuenda kune imwe nzvimbo. Chiwi ichi chine nzvimbo dzakawanda dzakanakisa zvekutengesa uye zvekudya, asi dzakawanda dzinodhura. Munhu wese watakambotaura naye nechombo chedu akabvuma kuti kushandisa Seven Seas Navigator sehotera yakadzika ne "mahombekombe egungwa", yaiva imwe nzira inofadza kune imwe nzvimbo, uye zvakanakisisa zvehutano hwakagamuchirwa. Chikepe chechikepe pamakumbo maviri muHamilton uye St. George chakanga chakakwana.
Kunyange zvazvo vashanyi vasingakwanisi kukodha motokari muBermuda , kutenderera zviri nyore. Isu tanga tambofunga kuti taizobhadhara vatengesi; asi, patakaona huwandu hwemotokari muHamilton, dzose dzinotyaira kuruboshwe, takakurumidza kuchinja mafungiro edu.
Kutya chikoro muSt. George kana kuti kunze kweguta reHamilton kumaruwa kunogona kunge kwakange kuri nyore, asi ini ndakanga ndichinyatsoedza kuti ndiedze kufamba nemigwagwa yakamanikana, yakazara nemigwagwa yeHamilton. Apo patakaziva nezvebasa rakanaka rebhazi kuBermuda, izvo zvakasimbisa kuchinja kwedu muzvirongwa.
Bhumuda bhasi system yakakodzera, uye mabhasi akachena uye air-conditioned. Mabhazi anomhanyira anenge maminitsi gumi nemashanu uye anofarira kuva nenguva chaiyo. Mabhii emabhasi anozivikanwa nebhuruu (mabhazi anotamira kuHamilton) kana pini (mabhazi anobuda kunze kweHamton). Iwe unofanirwa kuva nechinje chaicho kana bhasi chiratidzo; mutyairi haagoni kuita shanduko. Zuva-zuva rose rinoshandisa, kunze kwekuti iwe unongoronga kukwira imwe nguva. Iko huru yebhasi yebhasi iri mukati mokufamba kufamba kwemafambisi emvura.
Zuva redu rekutanga muHamilton, Bermuda raishandiswa kuongorora guta guru uye kuguma kumadokero kwechitsuwa chacho. Hamilton iguta rinoputika, uye imwe ngarava, Immer of the Seas, yakanga iriwo pachiteshi. Nzvimbo yedu yepamusoro yakatarisa kunze kwechikepe, saka taive nemafungiro makuru emafambisi egungwa, speedboats, kayaks, uye mamwe mabasa epachikepe. Vafambi mumasitei pa-starboard kurutivi rweSeas Navigator vanogona kunakidzwa kuona vamwe vatashanyi vachifambidzana pa Front Street iri pasi kana kuongorora zvipfigiso zvakawanda zviri pedyo nechiteshi kubva pakunyaradzwa kwevanomwe vavo Seas Navigator suite. Takatenderera guta ndokufamba kuti tione iyo yakakurumbira pink Princess Hotel. Vabereki vangu vakanga vagara imomo muma1980, uye hoteli yekare yakange yakaisvonaka sezvakaitika kare.
Hapana mumwe wedu akanga ashanyira Bermuda zvisati zvaitika, saka takasarudza kupedza zuva redu rekutanga kumhenderekedzo tichitsvaga chitsuwa chacho. Takakwira bhadhi yepamusoro yebhasi, tichishamiswa pamabhishi anoyevedza, nzvimbo dzokugara, uye dzimba. Hatina kukwanisa kubudirira kubudirira uye kuchena kweparadhiso iyi yechitsuwa. Zvose zvinokanganisa uye kutendeuka kwemugwagwa unoomerera uchienda kumadokero kunoratidza chimwe chinoshamisa gungwa. Takatakura nhumbi dzedu dzekutengesa nyoka, uye pakupedzisira dzakaguma pane zviduku, zvakanakisa gungwa kumaodzanyemba kwakadziva kumadokero kwechitsuwa chacho. Gungwa rakanga rava pedyo, uye takakonzera kukurukurirana nevarume vaviri vaibva kuVancouver, Canada, avo vaigara muchikepe chechikepe pachiteshi chengoro.
Zuva redu repiri kuHamilton, takatora Seven Seas Navigator hafu yezuva zuva snorkelling shore excursion pane kamukati anonzi Restless Native . Imwe makamera yakashanda yakanakisisa mutsva, makisiki anopisa, uye mutungamiri wedu aive mudunhu reBermuda uyo akatipa ruzivo rwakanyanya pamusoro penyaya yeBermuda nevanhu vayo.
Iyo nyoka yekutinhira yakanga yakanaka, uye kutonhora kwemvura kwakanga kwakarurama uye kwakanaka zvakajeka. Paiva nemapako mazhinji ematombo pamwe chete nehove yakazadzwa nemakomster. Ronnie ainakidzwa nokukanda mabhora efufuti kubva pasi yakadzika yejecha. Takafunga kuti pane imwe gorofu iri pedo, asi mutungamiri wedu akatiudza kuti vanhu vakawanda vaifarira kushandisa gungwa sekutyaira! Yaiva igungwa guru, uye ndinorumbidza zvikuru kune ani zvake anofarira snorkeling uye kufamba.
Pashure peusiku huviri muHamilton, Seven Seas Navigator akaenda nechikepe mangwanani eSvondo mangwanani kuenda kuSt. George kumabvazuva kweBermudha. Chinhu chokutanga chatakaona muSt. George chaive Guta Ciriri akamira pachiteshi kuti atikwazise.
Guta reSt. George rakasiyana chaizvo neHamilton. Icho chiduku uye chiduku, asi zvakakodzera kukosha. St. George ndiyo yaiva guta rekutanga reBermuda, rakatanga kugadziriswa nevashambadziri vomuBritain vakaputsika muna 1609.

Iko maonero kubva kuFort St. Catherine ariwo anoshamisa.
Isu takadzokera kumashure nechikepe nenzira yakasiyana-siyana yekufamba, tichiuya munguva yekudzoswazve kwechirango cheumwe wevakadzi vemo vaizove dunked nekuda kwekunyengedza kwake nguva dzose, makuhwa, uye huwandu huzhinji. Muremeti weguta uye meya vakagara pamusoro pedare ravo rekutonga, uye isu tose takashamiswa nemari yake.
Ndaifara chaizvo kuti yakanga isiri ini, kunyange zvazvo gungwa rakanyarara munguva yezhizha raizozorodza.
Mushure mokunge dunking uye kudya kwemasikati tichigara, taifamba-famba pedo neSt. George. Sezvo yaiva yeSvondo, mabhizimisi chete aifamba akasununguka, asi izvozvo zvakanga zvakanaka nesu. Takafadzwa nekufamba uye zviratidzo zvinoshamisa zvatakaona.
Zvakawanda saHamilton, vanhu vose vatakasangana navo vakanga vane ushamwari.
Vane Seas Navigator vaifamba kubva kuSt. George uye Bermuda kuenda kuNorfolk manheru masikati neSvondo.
