Bermuda Cruise

Hi, it's Brandi! I am just back from the 2nd annual Castaway with Jim and Frank. We sailed on Royal Caribbean's Grandeur of the Seas out of Baltimore, Maryland. This was a five night sailing to Bermuda. We had motorcoach transportation from Harrisonburg to Baltimore. The port at Baltimore is wonderful. We had hassle-free checkin with no lines! We had two days at sea and two days in Bermuda. The ship was great; just the right size. Definitely a good choice for first time cruisers. While in Bermuda we visited a few beaches and did an island tour. We enjoyed visiting Church Bay and Horseshoe Bay, they were both beautiful but very different from one another. Church Bay has a shelly beach but you can see the fish from the shore, great for snorkeling. Horseshoe Bay has a very long and wide soft white/pink sand beach, very touristy. Bermuda is British, very clean and upscale with lots of expensive shopping. I enjoyed Bermuda and would recommend it as a vacation destination.
