The Love Boat

Sara and I decided to spend the nine months between engagement and wedding saving our pennines in order to go on a great honeymoon. If we were going to ever accomplish our lifetime dream of going everywhere in the world, we'd have to get a good start on it from day one. The day after the wedding we hopped on an airplane to Los Angeles and soon thereafter boarded Royal Caribbean's Radiance of the Seas for a seven day cruise through the Mexican Riviera. Man was it awesome!! If anyone out there in cyber land is trying to think of a good honeymoon destination, there is nothing better than a cruise. Don't even let the word "camping" or "cabin" cross your mind! We did a lot of eating and loafing; best vacation ever.

Our first port of call was Cabo San Lucas, and I loved it! We decided to go a la carte with our excursion that day and hired our own little taxi boat driver. He tried his best to throw a bit of a tour in the trip, but mostly he just repeated over and over again, "And thees eez where da ocean pacifico meets weet da Sea ahv Cortez". And then we got to the beach right there at Land's End and I successfully dropped our camara into the pacific ocean (or was it the Sea of Cortez?) Fortunately, my camara was worth a few pesos less than the name-brand Oakey sun glasses that Sara purchased only moments before. I loved Cabo!!

This here picture is of Sara and I a few yards away from the yacht we were going to buy. They said it actually belonged to Cortez!
