    I've been itching to travel for a while and work's been really crazy so we decided to take a long
    weekend trip to somewhere close to NY. We decided on Bermuda and what a beautiful island it
    is! The flights were really cheap from NY and it only took us hour and half to get there (so
    close!). Hotels were really expensive so we decided to rent an apartment from
    bermudarentals.com in St. George's town (Unesco Heritage Site). We loved the apartment and the
    town that we stayed in. It was a short walk to town center, restaurants, ferry terminal and the bus
    stop. There are no car rentals in Bermuda so we decided just take the buses to go around the island.
    You can rent scooters, but since we've never tried riding one before so we played safe. Exploring
    the island via bus was a great idea. We were able to see lot of different places and it was definitely
    an easy way to travel. Also, out of all Carribean islands we've visited, we felt that Bermuda was the
    safest. I would definitely go back sooner than later.
