The Honeymoon

For our honeymoon, Matthew's parents sent us to Bora Bora.  Major thanks to Will & Teresa for sending us to paradise after our wedding!  Bora Bora is the most BEAUTIFUL place on earth! 



Bora Bora is south of Hawaii, and is in the shape of a circle, with lots of islands surrounding it.  The islands are actually the top of a volcano, and are surrounded by a lagoon.  So we weren't on the ocean, we were actually in a lagoon which is why the water is so pretty!


Once we landed at the airport, a shuttle boat whisked us away to our resort!


I'm telling you...the colors are unreal...


Welcome to the Intercontinental Resort and Thalasso Spa!


Got my flippers on.  (Mount Otemanu in the background is actually the center of Bora Bora.) 


Nothing like a good pair of goggles.  And that hammock over my left shoulder? 
Yep that was mine all week.


Our king size bed over looked the lagoon.


The bathroom.


Our bungalow had a balcony, then a lower platform you could swim off of and lay out on.


Matthew fed the stingrays.  I did not.


Sunset in Bora Bora.


The food was incredible.


So was the desert!  3 different kids of Creme Brulee!


Smile Matthew!  
(Shortly after this trip Matthew agreed it was time to send this hat home to be with the Lord.)




These were the pool boys, they brought you towels, drinks, gave demonstrations, 
and kept us laughing all week!


Over-the-water chapel.



Matthew found a hermit crab.  It took 5 minutes to take this picture because I 
was scared of it and kept dropping it.

The pool!


I loved the pool.
