If you pass through Grand Central in New York today, you might catch a little piece of Bermuda during what's being called "Experience Bermuda" day. The Bermuda Department of Tourism will be offering commuters samples of Bermudian cuisine and tropical beverages, chances to win giveaways, and live performances--including Bermudian musicians and the H&H Gombeys Cultural Dance Troupe.

Stop by to win one of 50 round-trip airline tickets to Bermuda in a dance contest that will place participants "virtually" on the island, or get a picture next to one of the pink Vespa scooters that can be seen on the island. The day will end in a Bermuda shorts runway contest on a pink runway, where one lucky winner will walk away with a trip for two to the island.

It's all taking place in Grand Central's Vanderbilt Hall (just off the main concourse) from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. If you can't make it to the terminal, WCBS-FM will be broadcasting the event live from 6 to 10 a.m. on the "Dan Taylor Morning Show," and will be giving away vacations for two to Bermuda from February 13 through February 17.
