The Day After

I am so afraid that I'm going to forget all the details of our wedding day and honeymoon. We're taking lots of photos, but hopefully, these blog entries will also help us look back on this special time in our life. There's an old Santana song "Hold On" that I've always loved, and it seems quite appropriate for my feelings now.

If you want to listen, just type in Hold On Santana to Google and you should be able to listen to the entire song through LaLa or other similar service.

Don’t rush me just this once

I want to make this moment last
Slow down the pace, there’s no hurry
I can’t let another pass me by again
Let me be the one to say when I’ve had enough

Just let me close my eyes, memorize
The way things are this minute
So when you’re gone I can go on
If memory can hold within it what I’m feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

CHORUS:

Hold on, nothing’s the same
Tell me why I feel this way
Life wouldn’t be worth living without you
All along I’ve been the pretender
But now that’s gone forever
Nobody’s ever loved me like you do
Nobody’s broken through

Got to concentrate, file away
Every last detail
Don’t want to lose what’s going down
I want to remember everything I’m feeling
Should time try fading or stealing something away

  

CHORUS

That said, here are some highlights from our first full day as a married couple:

• waking up to birds singing outside our hotel room
• walking along the beach near the spot where we got married
• grabbing a sandwich and having a picnic lunch at Asilomar while watching the waves and dogs playing on the beach
• taking a nap immediately after said picnic lunch
• visiting a plant sale and Casa Del Oro Garden
• having a beer at London Bridge and the waitress covering it for us

 I must admit we are actually both really tired, and came back to the hotel room fairly early tonight. But we don't mind at all! :)
