THE BIG REVEAL!

We have a honeymoon! After 16 months, 2 tickets purchased and canceled to South Africa (only for the tickets to sextuple in price), 8 travel guides bought and poured over- we have a honeymoon!

For 2 out of our 3 weeks we will be vacationing in Costa Rica. Time at the beach, time by the volcano- everything I need. Relaxation, beach time, adventure, hiking, volcanoes and surfing! Perfect!

For our final week, we will be spending time in the Bay area! I've never been and San Fransisco continues to allude me. We've planned several trips and I never get to go...something always stops me. But we are going!

I love it... love the whole 3 weeks. I can't wait!

Wow, three weeks off I am quite jealous.

Have fun with the volcanos and seeing the jungle.

That sounds like so much fun...hopefully you two will be able to sit back and enjoy your time together and relax after all the wedding madness.

You will have so much fun! I loved going to both Costa Rica and to the Bay Area. (Actually I would looooove to move to San Francisco). You might want to do the Barbary Coast Train in SF- great walking "trail" through areas of the city. Have fun planning the trips!

Aha, a great land with virgin rainforest capped by San Fran!!! So fantastic. Actually, October is a great time to go to San Francisco, and we were told that the Pacific Coast Highway trip is lovely that time of year. Of course you know Leigh would love to provide a slide show of the area to help you plan the SF leg of your trip.

Hey! I found your blog through Linda's- Silly Little Mischief!

Saw you are going to Costa Rica on your honeymoon- I just had mine their a month ago! Super jealous you're going for 2 weeks!! We went to Tamarindo, Guanacaste, so if you are anywhere near there and want any info, let me know!! Although, we pretty much just RELAXED, by the pool, ocean, in our rooms-- eating lots of good food and enjoying all the wild animals! We were SOOO exhausted after the wedding! We're normally more adventurous, but all we did was a zip line jungle tour!!

You can see pics on my blog! Wherever you go there, I'm sure you will LOVE it!! I'll have to go back someday to do the volcanoes and all the other stuff I missed, but for what it was- I woudn't change a thing!!
