the Homo-Mooners

well things seem to be shaping up quite nicely with regards to our San Francisco honeymoon. here are the details so far:
1. the airline has been booked: we're leaving at the ass-crack of dawn, the day after the wedding. honestly, if we could leave right from the hall we would. that's how much we're gagging for this trip.

2. the hotel has been booked:
Hotel Nikko. we've got a gorgeous looking room with a huge plush bed and fantastic bathroom, on the Club Floor. there's a wine bar only for those staying on that floor, and a fantastic looking restaurant with Japanese food. i'm guessing the sushi will be top notch, being right on the water and all.

3. (thanks to the Pampered Chef) we're taking a trip to a day spa! It's called International
Orange, and we found it on SpaFinder.com. We did so well in sales last year, with PC, that we earned a $250 gift certificate to be used anywhere we wanted (they gave us a list of 300 retailers). i've never been to a spa before. i'm not really into the whole "relaxation through massage and mud-wrap" thing (gimme an espresso and a good book and i'm fine), but stephen is, so to a spa we go! i'm sure i'll like it, i mean how bad could a place dedicated to one's total relaxation really be?

4. Alacatraz: ever since i read about it in Significant Others, i've wanted to visit. it just seems so cool and creepy. plus it would be a total trip to go for the infamous Night Tour and cling to Stephen like a cheap suit. i've heard you need to book a tour well in advance, but the only thing is, i can't seem to figure out how to get tickets. there was one site that our travel agent sent me, but it seems a little dodgy. we've got time to research it further.


i'm really psyched though. i mean, i know it's still 8 months away, but it's still gonna be some week. who knows, we could wind up like Maryann Singleton and never want to leave!

The Alcatraz Night Tour is SOOOO worth it. It's creepy and awesome - go on the one setting sail right before sunset. I'll try to find you the sight that I booked the tour on...
