The exercise studio should be completed by now, plenty of books will be stocked in the Governor's Room for relaxing vacation reading, the resort shop will be open, the towels chilled poolside and the bougainvillea will have filled out. Oh, how pretty. Daniel's Head Village, Bermuda By Charles Monagan Daniel's Head Village is the talk of Bermuda. Taxi drivers, especially those from the resort's home parrish of Sandys, weigh in on it, pro and con. Regulars at the Mangrove Bay drugstore gather round to cluck their tongues and ask about it.

Bermudians do not like change, nor do they like to acknowledge it, even when it is right on their doorstep.

After all, in many respects it's just what Bermuda needs.
