Wedding Bliss

Ok, I am back. I got married 2 weeks ago and had the honeymoon and trying to get myself all caught up and now I have a free moment to blog a bit. For everyone that was at my wedding, thank you! It was a wonderfully special day and really was one of the most beautiful weddings I can remember ever seeing. And to think it was mine. I owe that all to my wife. She had a great vision and made sure it was seen through. Thanks honey!
We went to Seattle and to Victoria, BC for the honeymoon. It was fabulous. The weather was outstanding and really there could not have been anything better. We took our time and did what we wanted when we wanted. She had no idea where we were going until Saturday night after the wedding. Her sister, whom did know, helped her pack for the trip. It was so much fun and she said that she could not have planned it any better herself. She thought everything was absolutely perfect. I thought so too!!!
One of the neatest things that we did was a whale watching tour. We actually got to see Killer Whales in their natural habitat. We were on a Zodiac boat and got to within a 100 yards or so of these whales. We saw probably a total of 5 whales. We followed them for about a 1/2 an hour or so and then headed back to shore. It was wonderful. Angela, my wife and another person on the boat, along with the driver got to see a humpback whale. They just happened to be looking in the right place at the right time. I was pretty jealous of that, but glad that she got to see it and experience it. I can only imagine how cool that would have been to see. Maybe next time.
I think her favorite part was probably afternoon tea at the Fairmont Empress Hotel in Victoria. I must admit it was quite a neat thing. We had tea and all the little finger foods that go with it. I have never drank that much tea at one time, I don't think. It was really good. Some sort of Orange and Pineapple flavored tea. Really good. It was pretty fun to get dressed up a little and surprise her with that. She had a blast and it really reminded her of when she lived in England. Since I have never been to England, I will just have to live vicariously through her, for now.

Well, I hope to, at some point in the near future, upload a few pictures of the wedding and some of our adventures on the honeymoon. Everything was just so wonderful. I had a great time meeting the rest of her family and friends. She has a great group of people that love and support her and I really would expect nothing different. She is truly wonderful.

Thanks for your time and I hope to be blogging again in the near future.
