Morning all!

Hope you’re all excited for Bermuda Day and that you have big plans for the day off – if you are working on Friday, I hope you are being paid very well for it.  Either way, you can officially get back in the water now so let the summer fun begin!  Here is the latest listing of Bermuda events to get you started:

There are new exhibits now open at Bermuda Society of Arts (BSoA) in City Hall. Due to popular demand, the Onions Gallery will be extending their exhibit Heritage Month: Colours, Sights and Sounds of Bermuda, by another three weeks. This is a collaboration between City Hall and BSoA that coincided with the City Art Festival and has a focus on the beauty of Bermuda and the art it inspires. The Edinburgh Gallery will showcase Suspended in Time by Emily Bierman, inspired by dreams, memories and perception. Studio A is exhibiting At My Brother’s Birthday Party, a collection of works in acrylic by Amanda Perry and Studio B is displaying the work of Kayla Jackson, a student artists whose work is mainly illustration in mixed media, watercolour and acrylic. All exhibits will run until June 4th.

Happy May Day, Kids!

I declare that summer has come early – even though May 24th is still a few weeks away, I was very brave and dunked myself in the ocean at the weekend and it wasn’t too bad (after a few minutes of crying).  I have a feeling this is going to be a great summer with lots of things to do in Bermuda.  On that subject, thanks to all who have bought tickets for my Nothing to Chew in Bermuda Dinner Event on May 11th – if you don’t have your ticket yet, why not?  It’s going to be a lot of fun that you don’t want to miss.  Here are some more Bermuda happenings:

As I mentioned previously, Harbour Nights restarts for the summer season tonight and, due to the new route,  Lemon Tree Cafe will be right in the middle of all the action.  To celebrate, they will be offering a special Pub Night from 7pm until 10pm, with food including Lemon Tree’s Famous Pies (Chicken, Beef and Veggie), Wagyu Kobe Beef Burgers, French Bread Pizza, Sweet Potato Fries and Fresh Sliced Roast Beef Sandwiches. The Tiki Bar will be open from 5pm and serving beer, wine and liquor as well as our Electric (Fresh) Lemonade.  My personal favourites, the Famous Mini Donuts, will also be being served right outside Lemon Tree.  The fun doesn’t finish with Harbour Nights though as from 10pm onwards, DJ Uncle will be spinning the tunes.  For more  information, visit www.lemontreecafe.bm or email lemon tree@transact.bm.
