The Honeymoon... this post is by me, Ryan. Laura expressed that I have to do a post so here it goes. After our wedding we immediately had to change and get to the airport. I was in charge of our Honeymoon, if I would have planned it a little better I probably would have waited until the next day to leave. It was still fun. We got on our plane & took off to Los Angeles. When we got there we got on the "Blue Bus" and took a ride to our first hotel near Disneyland. The Hyatt. Thanks to Dad & Kate we were able to stay at the Hyatt. It was only a few blocks from Disneyland, and like I said, if I would have planned it a little better we would have gone to Disneyland.
While we were staying at the Hyatt we decided to get our rental car the next day. I arranged to get just a normal sedan and the lady at the rental car place was kind enough to let us upgrade for free and let us get our car a day early. We got a brand new Nissan Altima, nice car! So we got our car & decided to do a little bit of sight seeing. As you can see Beverly Hills was on the list. We took a ride down Rodeo drive. We didn't see anyone famous. While in Beverly Hills we took a little drive over to Hollywood. Hollywood is really not as cool as I thought it would be. While we were there we HAD to eat at one of Laura's favorites, California Pizza Kitchen.
Another day on our Honeymoon SeaWorld was one of our stops. Laura was so excited, look at her nice little outfit. Her bucket is full of salt water taffy. She is all set to go!!! SeaWorld was a lot of fun. We were surprised though. Even though it was Southern California it was a little chilly. I think it was only in the 60's.
After we left Anaheim we had reservation at a hotel in Pismo Beach. That is a really cool little surf town. Even that was a little chilly so we didn't get in the water. We spent a couple of days there. Our hotel was right on the coast, we had a great view of the ocean. It was a nice place, not a lot of tourists.
This Frog was our little 3 wheeled car we rented to cruise around town. We had to wear these sweet biker helmets! My Woman looks like a CHIP... (California Highway Patrol)!!
I couldn't help it, I had to test the waters. That's as far as I got. My feet got wet! I can't wait to go back and really get in the water. If you ever have the chance to get to Pismo, we recommend staying for a day or two. What a relaxing place to stay.
SAN FRANCISCO!! BURRRRR! After we left Pismo, we took Highway 1 all the way up to San Francisco. Highway 1 is really neat but I don't recommend it if your schedule is a little tight. It took us probably about 4 hours or more longer than I thought it would.
San Francisco was the last stop on our Honeymoon journey. As I mentioned before, if I would have planned it a little better, we would have spent more time there. What a really neat place to go. It is really diverse. We had to take a trolley car ride. We weren't sure how they worked and how we were going to get back to where we started, but we figured we would give it a try. The hills in San Francisco are really steep. We couldn't believe those old cable cars could make it up & down the hills safely.
Good job Ry! See, blogging wasn't that bad, was it?!
Ryan doesn't give himself enough credit. He planned a week long vacation all by himself and it turned out great! We had a lot of fun! Even though Highway 1 took us a lot longer than we expected, we saw a lot of neat things. We went to a lot of places that I had never been to before. Good job Ry!
Good Things To Remember
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. You have to agree that you are 'less' and that someone else is 'more' to feel inferior. If you don't agree, you cannot possibly feel inferior. You might know something less, or you might be able to do something less, but you ARE unique and hence simply incomparable.... Do not buy into being reduced to an object of comparison."
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brillant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." Marianne Williamson
