Honeymoon

We toured around the Pacific. Here are some highlights...

Family Breakfast at the 'Broken Yolk'

Our first day as man & wife was a busy one. We woke to run & meet family for breakfast at Pacific Beach's 'Broken Yolk' restaurant. Where we also opened gifts & spent the morning with family.

Afternoon at the Disneyland Park
Our day continued as we grabbed our bags & headed for the big "D". No, not that "D", Disneyland!!! With Disneyland as deeply embedded in our relationship as it is, we decided it was a much needed stop. So, we spent the afternoon with Mickey & the gang.
First thing when we got there, was to get our mouse ears top hat & veil. As we boarded our ship for the Pirates of the Carribean ride, we were offered "The Romantic Cruise". Which was a surprise, turned out to be our very own boat. And as we left the park, we stopped at the music store, where I found the coolest bluegrass album, O' Mickey, where art thou. Not only did the guy working the counter give us his employee discount, he also played Beauty and the Beast for us. So, we danced there in the store.

Kauai Marriott Resort & Beach Club

Set on 800 lush tropical acres on Kalapaki Bay, we unwound by the spectacular pool and on the soft white sand beaches. The property encompasses all the land from the ocean to the airport, including a quarter mile of ocean coastline. The resort has two Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses, eight tennis courts, retail shops, four restaurants and lounges, a huge swimming pool complex with five jacuzzis, a full service spa, and an extensive collection of Pacific Rim and Hawaiian art.
During our stay in Kauai, we took a trip to the Hanalei Bay resort. Due to Jenn's love for the movie 'South Pacific', we enjoyed drinks at the resort's Happy-Talk Lounge, but we decided not to wait around for dinner at the resort's Bali Hai Restaurant.
We did take in an incredible helicopter tour of the island, and an off-road 4x4 tour of movie locations around the island.

Marriott Maui Resort
The Maui Marriott Resort and Ocean Club is a casual, full-service resort located on breathtaking Kaanapali Beach. The historic town of Lahaina was three miles away. The Maui Marriott Resort and Ocean Club recently completed phase one of an extensive renovation project. The front entrance was redesigned with a porte cochere added, new gardens and luau grounds were constructed, the lobby atrium and public areas were remodeled to include exciting restaurants, retail shops and water features and a spectacular new super pool was created featuring a grotto, island bar, multi-tiered waterfall, "shipwreck" water playground and zero entry sand pool. It was incredible.

Also, during our stay in Lahaina we took in the most authentic Hawaiian luau in all of the islands, the Old Lahaina Luau. It was not only a traditional luau feast and hula dancing … it was an evening of immersion in the culture of the Hawaiian islands.

During our stay in Maui, we drove around a lot of the island, snorkeled in Molokini (an underwater crater), and parasailed.
