   Extractions: Bermuda Bermudian culture is a blend of British and African heritages. The British influences predominate in institutions, including the form of government, educational system and legal framework. Judges still wear powdered wigs, bobbies direct traffic, cricket is the most popular sport and a pint of ale at the local pub is a common way to cap off a day's work. English is spoken on Bermuda and the majority of islanders are Christian. The African influence is more subtle but can be found in island music and dance - particularly in music of African origin, which comes via the West Indies, such as reggae and calypso, and also in the rhythm of Gombey dancers. Gombey dancing is the most interesting art form unique to Bermuda. While it has roots in West African tribal music, Gombey dancing also incorporates influences from Christian missionaries, the British military and, most visibly, American Indians, from whom the Gombey dancers have adapted their costumes. To the uninitiated, the Gombey dancers may just look like wildly costumed characters jumping up and down to loud music, but in fact the dancing is carefully choreographed to specific rhythms and often portrays biblical stories. The dancers traditionally take to the streets on Boxing Day and New Year's Day. Although no local artists have shaken the world with their talent, Bermuda can claim ties to a number of significant writers and painters who either lived, worked or vacationed on the island. They include Eugene O'Neill, Noel Coward, James Thurber, Peter 'big tooth' Benchley, Georgia O'Keefe and Winslow Homer.

The history of them has been greatly missing and only mentions the hostile relations between them and the Virginia Company. Geologists have concluded that Bermuda came into existence after a volcanic eruption over one hundred million years ago. Even though the soil is of volcanic formation, yet it is surrounded by coral reefs that protect it from natural erosion. There is a steep drop off beyond the coral reefs as the water is about three miles deep. The water within the coral reefs area is fairly calm, dreamily blue-green and transparent, and the beaches have a lovely pink cast. The Bermudan culture is a combination of British and African heritages. The British have had their greatest cultural influences in institutions such as the form of government, educational system and the island's legal framework. The English culture is highly prevalent in the forms of clothes, uniforms worn by judges and police people. The international game of cricket is widely played on the island. The majority of churchgoers are of the Anglican religion. The African influence is more subtle but can be found in the island music and dance, especially in music of African origin, which comes from the West Indies, music such as calypso, reggae and also in the rhythm of Gombey dancers.

   Extractions: IF A BOAT builder from St. David’s or the leader of a Sandys Gombey troupe had been told 100 years ago that their expertise was to be preserved on a wafer thin plastic object called a disc, they might well have dismissed such a notion as pure folly. But that is exactly what CedarBridge social studies teacher Anthony Wade (pictured, right) has begun doing. Using the latest technology and the enthusiasm of his students, Mr. Wade is currently preserving Bermuda’s heritage and culture digitally. “Digital Bermuda, as the project is called, is a collaborative effort between XL Capital and teachers like me,” Mr. Wade told the Bermuda Sun after receiving a certificate of recognition from XL for participating in a series of summer technology workshops. “Students can go out and look at aspects of Bermuda culture that are both alive and not alive.” Explaining that the project took root as an off-shoot of his senior one social studies class, ‘Preserving Our Heritage’, Mr. Wade said: “As part of the class, students have to research their family backgrounds using a web site that I found (www.rootsweb.com/~bmuwgw/bermuda.html) while I was visiting California. It’s based in Bermuda, and in addition to having a collection of very old Bermuda maps, it also contains genealogical information on many of the families who arrived in Bermuda to live. It lists the boats people arrived on and things like that — even how much money some of them had in their pockets.”

    Extractions: For almost 500 years, ships have collided with this Atlantic Island outpost, resulting in the world's greatest undersea collection of nautical history. At some sites, shipwrecks are almost piled one on top of another, allowing divers to explore multiple wrecks on the same dive. An aquatic museum, history comes alive as you swim amongst these marvelous treasures. As the island is almost completely encircled by a barrier reef, Bermuda also offers superb reef diving, coral grottos to explore, tunnels, archways and caves. The reefs (and shipwrecks) are populated with reef fish and marine varieties seen in the Caribbean plus some indigenous to Bermuda. The Island Experience As an added bonus to diving the historical shipwrecks of Bermuda, the Bermuda Dive Operators in cooperation with the Bermuda Department of Tourism are offering The Bermuda Shipwreck Certificate Program. By diving any of the 18 designated Shipwreck sites with any of Bermuda's five dive operators you will be awarded a signed Bermuda Shipwreck Certificate providing a brief history of the wreck documenting your dive. Sample Wrecks Program: Cristobal Colon The Marie Celeste has one of the most interesting histories of all the wrecks in Bermuda. She was a civil war blockade-runner. A 207-ton paddle wheel, steamer. During The American Civil War, the north states tried to block any ships going to the south and thus prevent the south from being able to keep their war effort going. Bermuda used to act as a warehouse for any ships running the blockade taking guns and ammunition to the southern states. In return for this facility, the vessels would bring back cotton and cash. A very picturesque ship which has been engulfed by the sand, leaving a bow section, two boilers, both paddle wheels and the engines visible. Some of the stern section can also be seen. Occasionally, passing hurricanes will expose more of the deck. One of the paddle wheels is upright and totally encrusted with coral, making it an excellent subject for photographers.
