Finality

We took a lot of pictures of animals and things but not so many of people on this last leg of our journey. Sorry everyone who expected to make a cameo!

Our first stop post-cruise: Just outside of Mobile, AL, with family. Family with Ironman masks.



Next stop: Dallas, to visit the lovely Sara Phillips. This is her cat.





Albuquerque, to visit Mindy and Ryan.



Mindy and Ryan have great taste in beer.






Grand Canyon! This is Grand!






















We were planning to head to the west coast next, but decided, sitting by the campfire Thursday night, that the Grand Canyon was a great ending point, and instead made the big drive home Friday morning. And now, as they say, the honeymoon's over. We're so happy to be home! Thanks for sharing the beginning of our marriage with us.


(a little ps: this was the view from the bride's side of the wedding):

Back from the Cruise and a Few Things Prior

Atlanta with Laura and Michael: we participated in their August photo session. That is not real money.



Orlando: Becca's house. We loved her decorations and her bathtub, and of course her company. Also, it turns out some LEGO games are pretty fun.





Fort Lauderdale: the Franz residence. This is their great dog, Dublin. We had some serious euchre games that night.





Miami: Mark Norman and his lovely wife made us breakfast and let us park our car at their house. These are the mimosas we drank.



The boat! It's enormous.










This is Aldo, our guide for our horseback adventure. He was just as great as he looks.




The sign says "crocodiles zone." Awesome.



This is the picture Aldo took of us. I didn't even know you could get a photo this fuzzy from a point and shoot camera.







All geared up for the zip lines.



These were the sinks at the zip line place. They were the best sinks we've ever seen. Sadly, this photo does not do them justice.


Sunset from our balcony.



Towel folding. Bizarre but neat.
