Yes, it's been virtually an entire week since my last post. Well, only four days but according to some surf-crazed, newly-engaged readers with a propensity for the New York Yankees, Bermuda Shorts has been way too quiet as of late. I totally agree and readers, you indeed have deepest my apologies for the lack of tropical updates and island news—but my silence hasn't been without good reason. As my television career grows so do the opportunities that present themselves, like the "Best of Bermuda" show I've been filming for the past two weeks that will air locally this summer. I'll be sure to spread the good word once it's all up and running, but you can expect to watch yours truly drinking rum swizzles on the beach, hitting golf balls at Port Royal, SCUBA diving on the south shore, parasailing in Dockyard, sightseeing in St. George and much, much more. Which brings me to yet another reason why Bermuda Shorts is likely to be quiet until early June: It's time for Mountainfilm! That's right, the annual Telluride film festival is officially upon us, which means I'll be covering its films and filmmakers—plus artists, athletes and activists—for Outside Television very soon (I told you all about last year's festival here, but in case you need a Mountainfilm refresher course just check out this video). So don't be sad. Know that I'm busy doing what I do best and that I'll soon return with your daily dose of sunshine. In the meantime the first person who correctly guesses where the above photo was taken wins a prize. Leave your guess in the comment section below and whoever's answer is closest will be awarded something unmentionably cool. Go!

And We're Back...Sort Of

Photo of the Day
I'm happy to report that this picture was taken at Coconuts, the open-air restaurant at The Reefs Hotel & Club, which I'm also happy to report just completely revamped it's lunch and dinner menus. Given my new arrival I was only able to stay for a quick drink instead of a full meal, but considering the restaurant's new island-inspired options—like mahi mahi tacos, jerk chicken platter or the oh-so-Bermuda grilled rockfish sandwich—there's no doubt I'll be back soon to offer a full report. The other good news? I hear dinner at the casual beachside cafe will no longer be three-course prix fixe, which means all of you dessert-haters out there can finally enjoy an entree or even a simple appetizer within eyeshot of the crashing waves—easily one of the best spots in Bermuda to chow down (trust me, you don't get a view like that just anywhere). Stay tuned for more to come; in the meantime, have a Bermudaful day!

Photo of the Day
With local temperatures creeping up into the low 70's and long Spring days blissfully sunny and cloud free, I couldn't resist posting this picture, which was taken on South road in Southampton over the weekend. Talk about a Bermudaful day! In a related story, AirTran began flying to the island yesterday, so if you live anywhere near the Baltimore/Washington area I'd advise hopping on its website and booking one of the no-frills carrier's super-low flights ASAP. Don't believe me? Then check out this quick search for flights in April, with fares as low as $79 each way! Time to come bask in the Bermuda sun, folks.
