You know what's great about living in Bermuda? (Besides all those gorgeous pink sand beaches, of course. That was Horseshoe Bay over the weekend and yes, the sand is that pink). Holidays. You see, in addition to celebrating typical holidays prevalent in countries like the U.S. and England—like Labor Day for example—Bermuda has a whole host of other celebratory days where locals get the day off. In July there's Cup Match, a two-day cricket tournament that turns into a festive (and boozy) four-day weekend, and in April, the island relaxes on Good Friday and Easter Monday, which is why this post is about to come to an end. It's 74 degrees and sunny and I my friends, am headed to the beach. Happy Monday!
