Clintons' Bermuda Vacation Details: Local Paper Reports Hand-Holding And Candlelit Dinners

As the Obamas caught most of the media's attention with their Vineyard vacation, a former first couple managed a more low-profile beach getaway. Bill and Hillary Clinton traveled to Bermuda last week where, The Bermuda Sun reports, they spent time at the beach and ate buffet breakfasts. They also celebrated Bill's 63rd birthday, which was on Wednesday, with "a candle-lit dinner on a private beach and watched the sunset with waves lapping at their feet."

The paper reports the Clintons were pretty lovey-dovey and camera-friendly, holding hands, posing for photos and talking to locals. The former first couple stayed at Cambridge Beaches resort in what sounds like a pretty sweet suite. "The cliff-top [pool] suite had its own plunge pool, panoramic ocean and sunset views, a whirlpool bath and high-end Bose surround-sound system."

Bill made some time for a golf game at the Port Royal, and the couple met Premier Dr. Ewart Brown and wife Wanda, Governor Sir Richard Gozney, Lady Gozney and U.S. Consul General Grace Shelton for cocktails at Horizons resort in Paget, where the group "spent just over an hour at the bar terrace of Splendido restaurant 'talking politics' on Thursday evening. Mr. Clinton drank tea and diet coke, saying he had a sore throat, while Mrs. Clinton drank gin and tonic."

The last time the Clintons were in Bermuda was 30 years ago, at Horizons, where their daughter Chelsea was reportedly conceived. According to The Bermuda Sun, "The Clintons were given a quick tour of the property and Mrs. Clinton commented to her husband 'look darling, it's so romantic.' They were 'very keen to see the room' they had stayed in 30 years ago, but unfortunately didn't have the time."

They were scheduled to stay until Saturday, but flew back to Washington on Thursday due to Hurricane Bill.

I wish they would move to another country...and start their commie like policy...o yea...we are the last country the Statist needs to poveratize

[Bluebell123]

I've always been a fan of the Clintons. They seem to have a complex relationship and they probably do love each other on some personal level. They are both articulate and brilliant and represent the US well. Here's hoping for another Clinton White House soon.

[beautyontheinside]

The complement each other very well in many aspects. All relationships have rocky times...but I think with Hillary's running for office and becoming her own person it really opened their relationship up.
Kudos to them for sticking through it.

[AlwaysFair]

2016 at the earliest..

[Eres]

My eyes actually misted. They deserve happiness, finally.

[2Bfair]

hook, line and sinker.

[lbicomber]

You? Falling for a silly anti-Clinton delusion again?

Happens all the time.

[janeycat]

well....i like them both

remember that " first stone " thing that Je.sus talked about ?

[2Bfair]

what did HE say about serial adultery?

[lbicomber]

Interesting that you capitalized "HE". At first, i thought you were referring to Je sus, but then I saw you capitalized it and realized ....

... you were talking about Obama again.

[eshalom]

2BFair,

Oops. You've got the wrong person. It was the Kennedy boys who had serial affairs - you know, the clan the Obamas and their supporters worship.

[bensisco]

I hope this story is true. I always wanted them to get it together and be a true power couple.

[1butterfly61]

hope that they had a nice time together.

[PlanoBlue]

I'm happy that the Clintons are enjoying some down time. We need our SOS fresh and ready for all the battles ahead of her. And Bill works hard on his humanitarian efforts across the globe but mainly in Africa.

Two good people doing good for our country.

[2Bfair]

did you mean: two people good at doing it to their country for personal gain?

[placpje]

It doesn't read that way.

Why the problem with comprehending basic English?

[fresno500]

I would imagine she put him through hell during the Monica thing. It's good to see them show each other some affection.

[papajoemama]

Right...She put HIM through hell...that's an interesting take on it...

[chulanow]

We will always LOVE the Clintons.....glad to see they are having a well deserved vacation.

[MamaMoroni]

I think Obama SENT her away!

[2Bfair]

The article says "The last time the Clintons were in Bermuda was 30 years ago, at Horizons, where their daughter Chelsea was reportedly conceived." Now where would that tidbit have come from, if not from the Clintons themselves. or there spinners?

Why is it, the Cltintons and the supporters love to share sefl-serving intimate details of their marriage, but go bizzerk about invasions of privacy when the details become public, or lies are revealed, that are not flattering to the Clintons' marriage or their integrity?

[placpje]

Don't know who revealed it, and neither do you .... hence the real reason for the question mark at the end of your accisation.

That being said, the Clintons can choose to reveal (or not reveal) any details of their relationship they see fit without waiving the right to keep other parts private. See how that works? Just because you're still obsessed with BC's $ex life doesn't mean anyone else is. Well, ... besides Ru$h and H@nnity.

Hmmmmm, .... wonder why that is ....

[2Bfair]

good to know. But sometimes what they choose to "reveal" about their private lives is dishonest ... they lie... like in the 60 Minutes inteview on January 26, 1992, or lying under oath about affairs, when you are charged with sexual harrassment. These are not private matters, as much as you would like to claim that.

Btw, you prove once again the only defense of the Clintons is a personal attack against anyone who criticizes them. I have not interest in the Clinton's marriage or what it entails, or Bill Clintons legendary sex life. I do care about integrity in public service and holding those who violate public trust accountable. They are shameless.

[wreckdiver]

Actually, there have been many unsubstantiated rumors about Chelse@'s conception in Bermuda 30 years ago, such as J0e Klein's smear book quoting an anonymous source who claimed BC r@ped HC on that trip. Of course, Klein's book was thoroughly debunked by Medi@ M@tters, J0e C0nasan, and Al Fr@nken, just to name a few.

You Clinton-h8ers do love your silly fantasies.

[2Bfair]

placpje, why are you posting in the same thread now as wreckdiver? Trying to give the illusion of more support to your attack mode Clinton defenses. Will the your lbicomber id be here too. What about your fleet of "yman" ids? oops they got removed?

[2Bfair]

yikes, the Clinton spin machine goes into overdrive. No one wants to dig up all their dirt, just to stop their public distortions and lies.

[2Bfair]

The report says "The paper reports the Clintons were pretty lovey-dovey and camera-friendly, holding hands, posing for photos and talking to locals." I have no doubt the Clintons were "lovey-dovey" for the cameras and photo ops. Does this mean Bill needs an ailbi again?

[placpje]

Really?

Do they discuss these things with you regularly?

Can you make any more c0wardly accusations in the form of a question?

Is the reason you always do that because you watch too much F0x Newz?

[2Bfair]

oh please. Every action and word of the Clintons is calculated for self benefit. I think Bill is scating on thin ice again, and needs to look happily married as a cover. tick tick tick

[Elkims]

Maybe they will conceive again and have the son that some people want POTUS to have.

[illinois4O]

Oh please!!! I think he'd be very happy with a GRANDSON, not a son at this point!!!!!!!!!

[tabatha]

Good for them!

[iwant2no]

God bless them! It takes a lot to be in public office, and to keep ones sanity.

[2Bfair]

peddling influence to high bidders for mega millions seems to help them deal with the pain of it all.

[placpje]

Sounds serious ... will you whine as much when 0bama gets out of office and does the same?

[duze]

Or cheating Peter Paul.com. Bill fought tooth and nail to keep this quiet during the primary. He actually had two kids removed from a rally he gave in Virginia because they bought the subject up. Check Youtube for:The Video Hillary Doesn't Want You To See, and find out what was really going on during her race for the NY State Senate. Seems her close friend Charles Rangel had much to do with that also. Rangel is in it up to his eyes. The Ethics Committee is all over his lies about his financial disclosures and guess who is right in the middle of it?

[Rosanneofpgh]

Of course, YOU are privvy to their thoughts and decisions, arent you, unfair??

[all4hill]

They deserve to be happy, and to be loved. They are amazing humanitarians, and I love them both. I will always be a supporter.

[StopSexismNow]

Ditto!

I am definitely a fan of all4hill!

[2Bfair]

It is so curious to see someone with your moniker so frequently and effusively praising Bill Clinton, of all people.
