Paul's Adventure

Hey everyone-

I'm writing this a little late, but it has been a little busy since getting home.

As most of you know, I got married on July 7th, 2008 to a wonderful girl Becca. We were married on the beach at sunset in Jamaica and then had another 3 weeks to enjoy each other and travel. We stayed in Jamaica for a week and enjoyed every moment. We stayed at the Couples Swept Away resort, which if anyone is thinking of going down to the islands we would highly recommend this place. We did everything from snorkeling (both day and night), to kayaking to reading on the beach. The atmosphere was so relaxing and the people were so great. As they always told us..."No promblem Mon!"

We then started off on another adventure and flew to San Diego, CA. Our plans on this leg was really not to have any. We rented a Dodge Charger, had a GPS that sometimes worked, and a goal that we need to get to Oakland by July 25th to fly home. It was so much fun sharing the experiences with Becca. Even though I grew up in Southern California, I hadn't done 90% of what we did so each day, we were able to see, or do or try something totally new which I know we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We surfed (which I did lose wedding ring #1), and rented Beach Cruiser bikes, and went to a famouse Arts and Crafts festival called the Sawdust Festival (where I purchased ring #2), went to Disneyland, walked around Hollywood, camped along the Pacific Ocean, white water rafted in Class IV rapids and stayed in an old mansion in Napa Valley. Wow, that even felt like alot to type!

We are now back, trying to set up a home (as I am realizing is different than just a house I used to set up:), and getting back into the swing of things.

I hope that all of you get to meet Becca soon. I of course will be happy to show pictures, which I am trying to figure out how to put on my new iphone (wedding gift from my mom). I look forward to sharing stories with all of you soon.

Paul
