Today's Prompt: A picture from your favorite vacation.
So far, our honeymoon in Aruba was the best vacation yet. This isn't just because it lasted 2 weeks (though that did make it quite amazing in itself) but because we were just us, doing our thing, relaxing and drinking and having a good time celebrating our marriage. This photo is one of my absolute favorites of Jason and I. It was our first night there and this restaurant was right next to our hotel, so we thought it would be perfect to check out since we traveled all day and didn't want to seek out anything too far. The restaurant is actually up two flights of stairs and completely open air, so you can see the ocean really well. We got upstairs, got seated, ordered our drinks (tropical fun ones since we were on an island!) and they brought us these huge glasses, a full liter, of mixed drink deliciousness... each! We had a great dinner, another round of fruity drinks, hopped off our stools, and then felt just what was in those drinks besides fruit. Rum.
Lots of rum. We stumbled away giggling and reached the top of the stairs to get back down to the street. Oh crap. We did not think this through. Holding onto the handrails and giggling even more, we made our way safely to the street and to the sign that is behind us in this photo. I had to have us pose for this photo, on the first night of our honeymoon. Jason's shirt is askew, my hair coming down from it's clip, our faces are flushed, and my smile is bright. It was such a great night, a happy memory, and an amazing vacation.
