the honeymoon post! (days 1-3)

*Note: This is in a few posts since there were technically 8 days of jam-packed honeymooning involved!

Day 1: Sleeping in the next day was WONDERFUL. We had all day on Sunday to get the last-minute honeymoon details finished before we left, and it was such a nice day to relax and enjoy being married! We had our first meal together at McDonalds...So romantic :) And then we took a bunch of stuff back to my apartment that we didn't need, and we finished packing for the honeymoon. Later for dinner, we walked down the street to Nicola's and took our dessert to-go and ate on our balcony in the honeymoon suite.




Day 2: On Monday morning, we woke up at the crack of dawn, and Mom drove us to the airport. We had to be there 3 hours early since it was an international flight...So we were pretty tired, but we got to read all of the scrapbook pages that people filled out at the wedding, so that killed some time :) The flight wasn't too bad because we were super excited. Once we landed, we got in a little shuttle taxi and drove to the resort. Driving through the town was a little scary because it was so poverty-stricken, but once we arrived at the resort, we were greeted with champagne and warm towels!


Then they sat us down and said that we had been upgraded to the PRESIDENTIAL SUITE!!!! We got the best room in the entire resort, and it was incredible. Most rooms had a very nice little balcony with a hammock, but ours was a HUGE wrap-around balcony that overlooked the sunset! We were sooooo excited. We mainly just spent the first afternoon getting settled and exploring the resort (as well as laying out on our private balcony).






Day 3: We were so excited to go lay out by the pool all day and soak up the sun. We enjoyed some free (everything was free!) margaritas and pina coladas, and just completely relaxed. It was SO NICE. We also went snorkeling and saw some incredible fish. I can't wait to get my underwater pictures developed! That night we got dinner at the Mexican restaurant and saw some fire dancers!
