Hola Honeymooners


We were seriously in paradise on our honeymoon.
 We went to Cabo San Lucas, and even though we had 5 hour layovers
 at the LAX airport it was so worth it. 
 Our condo was on a cliff, so you look out the window of our condo and can see the ocean go on forever. Then if you walk outside and down this path it takes you to the resorts private beach.
 I know my mom is the best for letting us use a week of her timeshare.
 We are spoiled.
We spent a lot of time on the beach which probably wasn't the smartest idea
 after a long winter in Utah. 
We looked like lobsters after the 2nd day.
 But it was so worth the relaxing day at the beach!
 The weather and water was so beautiful!
Chad speaks Spanish, which helped out a lot when we were trying to bargain deals, 
one time in particular when we were trying to find a good deal to go snorkeling.
 A “family” cruise, with unlimited tacos, and snorkeling, sounds awesome right?
 Oh yeah it was, but it wasn't exactly what we thought it was. 
We get on the boat and the guy says welcome to the boose cruise! 
Oops, too late to turn away.
 So we thought we might as well just laugh about it and people watch. 
While waiting for the tacos we thought to order a drink, but a virgin one of course. 
So Chad went up to order in Spanish so he would be sure not to put any alcohol in it. 
When we took a sip of  them, we  just look at each other.
 It  definitely had a little zing to it that burned the throat.
 So we just stuck to water.
We had some of the best Mexican food known to man.
 Holy cow it was good!
 I’ll go back just to each at this restaurant called Pancho.
 Mmm so good.
It as really fun seeing Chad get really excited about a few things that reminded him of his mission in Chile, like the bus rides we took to the city. 
Cram as many people as possible in the bus. I mean we could have avoided that and taken a taxi, but we wanted to experience Mexico, and we did just that.
 It was exhilarating and a little claustrophobic.
One of the nights we decided to get all dressed up and go out to dinner. 
Once we got to the city it was too hard of a decision where to go, so we went to 3 of them. We got an appetizer at one, entree at another, then dessert at the last.
 It was fun, we want to make it a tradition and do this every once in awhile.
While walking around the city somehow every local knew we were honeymooners, and no we weren't even showing any PDA.
 We would walk past and they would say
 “Hola Honeymooners.”
 I didn't mind it at all, I loved our honeymoon and I love being a newlywed.

 Waking up next to Chad every morning for the rest of my life is the greatest blessing.
 I really have married the most amazing man, I’m so excited for our future and what we can  accomplish together.
