ashleyw44's Pink wedding

Some days I just have to make myself stop thinking about wedding stuff and all the planning and I find myself thinking about the honeymoon instead. It is much more relaxing to think about!!

Adam and I discussed many different options for our honeymoon from Europe to Alaskan cruises to a cabin in the woods even to Beijing! Our friends and family think of us as world travelers which pleases me greatly but we are letting them down for our honeymoon. We met in Japan and have traveled to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand together. We each have done some other traveling before meeting each other: Australia, New Zealand and China for him, South Africa, Namibia, Mexico and Belize for me. Although our traveling expeditions are far from over, we decided to have a simple, quiet, (English) honeymoon. We are going to Portland!!! I am so excited about it! I have wanted to go to Portland for years and now I am finally going! I have heard nothing but wonderful things about it, save for the rain, but I love the rain. We are only about 6 hours from Portland here in Boise and it was one of the most enticing things to me about moving to Idaho. We are planning a quiet week there, although we learned that it's the week of the Rose Festival (whatever that is...), but we may make a day trip to the coast for some great seafood and deep sea fishing. We are both really pleased with our decision. Who knows maybe we'll go to Russia for our first year anniversary!
