\nI am not really a speed enthusiast. When Bruce told us our mopeds are arriving on our second day at Bermuda, I was not too intense about the moped until I actually turned the accelerator. It was one of those moment where I felt like I’m stepping out of the comfort zone and taking a bit of risk to trying things out, but then I realized, riding moped 40 km\/h is actually more comfortable than cycling at the same speed on a road bike. I really did wish the speed limit sign said 35 MPH, not 35 K<\/em>MPH.
\nResidents in Bermuda are nice. Every time we pass by someone, whether we’re taking a walk or rinding on mopeds, there is probably 85 percent chance that they wave us and say, “Hello!” It’s so often that even I, as a 2 day old Bermuda visitor, initiate greeting to Bermudians and feel some good juice in self-satisfaction. And even though we dominate the left side of road in our slow, nine mopeds formation, Bermudians seem to bear with us and did not make a single honk so far. Perhaps our group from previous years has a pretty good reputation. : )<\/p>\nAfter we finished our practice run around, we went to St. David’s. Thanks to the Sun being nicer to us than yesterday, we were able to do various activities. There was active light house that was open to the public, so we took some steps to the top. It was such a nice view that I felt this is one of a few chances that taking panoramic photo sounds suitable.
\n<\/a>We then took ourselves to the shoreline in Copper’s Island. Some of us went out for snorkeling, some collected corals and seashells, some others went to find more Geocaches nearby. I was glad the beach was simply beautiful, because I was a bit disappointed yesterday about how much trash ended up at the other side of island. I am not going to harangue about how trash destroys the ecology, but see, no one can get away from the problem of garbages.<\/p>\n
