The past 4 days are a blur... between wedding showers, rehearsals, dinners, ceremony, and reception we have been in a whirlwind. Couple that with trying to work in some touristy trips around the island with Chuck's niece Deb and her daughter, Lauren, we are ready for a quiet day today. We plan to visit some museums (air conditioned I hope) to unwind in today.
I had never been to a beach wedding and I was more than impressed with the beauty of it. WOW -- what a memory -- out in nature with the palm trees gently blowing from the ocean breezes, the deep blue ocean lapping on the shoreline, the view of the volcanic hills in the background, it was SO special. It was a 4:30pm wedding so we had light from bright sunshine, to the sunset, dusk, and darkness. Nice variety.
Here are a few photos. I took a bunch, but of course there were few that were very good. I haven't mastered Photoshop yet but I aspire to do that one of these days. Some of you won't recognize anyone in these photos -- but Chuck gave away the bride, so you can find him easily. Oh, and the groom is 6'10". Chuck's niece is about 5'4".
We are going to the Big Island tomorrow afternoon and our little house is a secluded one right on the beach. We have good 'ole dial-up there so probably won't send more pictures from there unless we go to a Starbucks or something...
