Plan ahead now for a cruise to Bermuda in September. The average temperature will be a balmy 75 (high 84, low 75). Bermuda located is far out in the Atlantic, over 800 miles due east of Charleston SC. Although the hurricane season runs from June to November, hurricanes usually give Bermuda just a glancing blow because the ocean at this latitude is not as warm as the Caribbean. Royal Caribbean offers a cruise leaving from Baltimore on Saturday, September 14, and returning on Thursday, September 19. Ocean view cabins cost about $831 per person (double occupancy). Cabins with a balcony run about $1,296 person (double occupancy). All cruises fill quickly, so don’t delay. You can book directly with Royal Caribbean. If you wish, you can make reservations with your own travel agent or use my favorite agent, Shillelagh. If you want bus transportation to the cruise terminal, or for more information, call Carolyn Buttolph at 703-842-3177 (email her at ckbuttolph@aol.com).
