Thursday we drove from Naples all the way through the Keys to the southern most US city of Key West. Yet another gorgeous sunset and some lightning to end our evening after exploring the town and getting completely DRENCHED in a sudden (shortlived) downpour. We literally just said “screw it,…
While Jeff was at his party, I was lucky enough to see a beautiful sunset. Passersby thought it would be nothing special as the clouds were dense near the ocean. Sure enough, past about 6:45pm, I didn’t see the big ball of fire, but after it set, not only did…
We really lucked out Monday night with our plan to go to the beach side restaurant here at the Ritz for sunset. It was cloudy enough to make things interesting but the horizon was absolutely clear. Last night, however, there was a thunderstorm prior to sunset and it was kind…
Here for Jeff’s business conference – luckily we have been able to have some fun as well. Tomorrow I have to spend the WHOLE day without my man. I think I will be ok; the weather is nice and I have some time booked at the spa as well as…
One of my favorite stops we will make in Ireland is going to be at what is known as Giant’s Causeway. It is a coastal part of Northern Ireland that was an old volcano. the mountain eroded away and what remains are the hardened rocks of the interior. They are…
The Blue Lagoon geothermal hot springs in Iceland are one of the most popular hot springs in the world. Rated by National Geographic as one of their bucket-list places to visit.
We are going to the I-lands, Ireland and Iceland! We just booked our flight to Reykjavik this afternoon and are extremely excited about it. I am sure you are wondering why we want to go to a frozen land during the coldest month of the year? Two words… aurora borealis.
United Airlines Mileage Pus Credit Card Jenn and I made it official, we have booked a trip to Ireland! We are very excited about our newly planned trip. It will cover the whole country in a ring self guided car tour. I feel the best part of it is that…
Today was mostly spent Kayaking. We took a tour with Central Coast Kayaks’ John through some awesome caves in Pismo. Here are some of the photos Jeff and I took. We also got a DVD of pictures that John took – an awesome included goody for the reasonable price of…
Jeff and I decided to take the day off today (and me the weekend) so that we could have another mini-moon. I told Jeff that I would plan everything to surprise him this time and while it was a LOT of fun planning, I realized in the process that I…
Photos from our most recent trip: We had a blast eating and drinking our way through the city. We never ate the same kind of food twice since there is so much to choose from! Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, English, American, Italian, etc! We even went to see how they make…
We are so incredibly excited not only to be having our first year anniversary in Las Vegas, Nevada (An-Nevada-Versary, or An-Nevada-Vegasry style as Monica calls it), but also, we planned enough ahead to get an awesome room (hopefully with free upgrade for Gold member status) at the new Autograph Collection…
Finally! I’ve created our guest book. Sadly, I think one or two people did not get a silhouette – for shame! Anyway, here is the link: http://www.jmporders.com/Albums/Jenn-and-Jeff/Silhouettes/
Room service for breakfast today, followed by the hot tub and a trip to the spa for our free couples treatment. I found it very relaxing and it left my skin feeling smooth and exfoliated – Jeff’s too, although he was a bit too out of his element to be…
No real plans today – we were lucky to sleep in till about 9am. After breakfast we took a camera free walk along Front Street to all the touristy shops looking for a trinket that Jeff could buy. After going back on the ship for lunch, we headed back out…
