Honeymoon Series

We're still waiting for the digital copies of our wedding pictures so, in the mean time, I'm going to skip ahead and post about our Honeymoon. Thanks to some amazing wedding guests we were able to buy a new camera right before we took off for LA. I was so excited to use our new camera that I took over 500 pictures while we were at Disneyland. While you may be thinking that over 500 is minimal for a honeymoon I should clarify we were only in Disneyland 3 days ;)

Due to my excessive picture snapping I will have to post multiple times on our Honeymoon at the Happiest Place on Earth!

Our Arrival & The Disneyland Hotel

We arrived in LA on Thursday evening and we took the Disneyland Express shuttle to our hotel. It was so nice to be able to sit back and relax and not have to navigate through LA. I've always wanted to stay at the Disneyland hotel because it's the original, and I am so glad that we did. The Disneyland Hotel is amazing! Not only is it classic but you walk out onto Downtown Disney, which if your an adult that is the best because you have all the restaurants and bars right at your fingertips.

When we checked in with the front desk person, Silvia, upgraded our standard room to a Downtown Disney view room. Though we were on the fourth floor and looked mostly into a beautiful tree (it felt like we were in a tree house) we could here all the live music from Downtown Disney so it made relaxing in our room much nicer.

After we settled in there was a knock on the door, and to our surprise Silvia sent us chocolate covered strawberries and two glasses of Grand Marnier to celebrate our honeymoon. It was perfect - I love chocolate covered strawberries and the Grand Marnier tasted great! ;)

We then headed for a night out. We had dinner at Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen and listened to wonderful live jazz and blues music and then we headed to the Uva Bar in the middle of the District. It was the perfect way to end the first night of our honeymoon :)
