got home saturday night from our wedding and honeymoon, was a great time and things went for lack of a better term perfect.
the wedding was held on the beach in north carolina and we went to disney world for the honeymoon, i have alot to post so i'll do it in parts as the timeframe was over 12 days
PART 1.......
we left early wed the 24th, we took michelles honda crv, average gas milage but no worries....ran perfectly cruising at 80-85mph the whole trip.
we spent the night at my sisters in broadway nc which is about dead center of the state, thursday morning we headed through wilminton to carolina beach.
the nightime didn't really rain much, watching the full moon over the ocean and heavy patchy clouds made for some awesome views of the moonlight illuminating over the water in patches.....i had never seen the moonlight like this.....here are some pics..
saturday mornings sunrise looked to be a good sign....

friday and saturday morning (wedding day) it was raining pretty good though, enough michelle was freaking out a bit, but i had things covered, the rev who married us actually had a beach house just up from where we were and he offered his home in case it was raining too hard, we were fine with a light sprinkle.....but this gave us the backup plan.
so the time comes and we decided to go for it on our beach outside the hotel, but it started raining harder, so we decided we should take some "dry pics" before we headed outside, the rev's wife was handling all the photos.
we got done with the pics and decided it was time, the moment we opened the door to head out to the beach it literaly stopped raining and the sun came out........weird i thought.....with the associated sign of relief.
the ceremony went over without a hitch.
we had a small group of guests (which is what we wanted)....but a glance at the hotel balconies showed we had probably about 100 people watching from afar
when we were done the photographer wanted one last shot of us walking up the boardwalk and waving "bye" for the last pic of the photo package......it was at that time the rain switch turned back on.....so the timing could not have been any more perfect, along with everything else.
sunday morning we got up early and headed down the coast, this portion of the trip started off with a coffee on a ferry ride from fort fisher, then down through charleston sc and on to disneyworld, michelle wanted disney....so that's what i gave her.
i had never been there, she was there a bunch growing up but she had no idea what was in store for her......nor did i....kinda
disney will be part 2....i'm done typing for tonite........lol
