How Good Is Your Memory?

1.As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.

honeymoon pictures

Our boat in the sunset. We're actually rushing back as fast as we can on our little boat that took us snorkling so that we don't miss the cuise ship! We got behind when we took that little detour to watch the whales!

This is us rushing back to our ship..thats our tour guide behind us..



I call this picture "Hi People" because to me and dan it looks like the whale is waving to us as he jumps..or she..i don't know.

This is Land's End (and also Rhett's head.)

Our tour guide went right up to the sea lions and was making noise, talking to them so they would wake up and move for us. Boy did they stink..

We left friday the 12th to mesa where we stayed with his sister leslie and her husband rhett.

We left san diego at 4, arrived in Cabo San Lucus on Monday, arrived in Ensenada Wednesday, and got back to San Diego on Thursday the 18th. It was a blast. Here are some pics.
