Honeymoon

Finally, I'm getting around to this one! Actually, it's been hard getting around to lots of things. We still have most of our Thank Yous to send out. I'd blame it on hibernation, but mostly I'm just a procrastinator and Jesse's too relaxed to worry about it. Anyway, we will. For now, some honeymoon pictures.

We went to the Moulin Wakefield in Wakefield, Quebec. It was a whoppin' 30 minute drive away. Far enough to feel like we could get away from the familiar, but close enough to travel stress-free. I can't comprehend the idea of getting on a plane and flying somewhere foreign after all the craziness of a wedding. Quebec is foreign enough for me. Enough tangents. It's picture time for reals.

Jesse "Tiny Bladder" Butler had to mark his territory on the way.

At first we thought the Inn left us something special. Turns out, some very thoughtful friends arranged to have these lovely treats for us upon arrival. Thank you Byron & Erica!!

We upgraded to have a jacuzzi tub, a much needed place for to relax after the wedding.

We rolled in the snow and jumped back in. Then another couple came and it felt awkward.

A full country breakfast was included for all three mornings. So good!

 

 

The dining room overlooks the falls. I like hash browns.

The falls/river. Our room also overlooked the falls.

On a walk to town.

Wakefield. We enjoyed coffee at a local cafe and were pleasantly surprised to find a second-hand shop upstairs.

more Wakefield.

Amazing gourmet three course dinners were also included in the three nights. Jesse has a stink face.

We went for a very chilly walk in the woods along some trails in Gatineau Park.

Goofy or handsome, you pick.

Kat managed to beat Jesse at pool on our first night there.

But then Jesse kicked her ass the rest of the time.

Kat doesn't mind (not too much).

In between course 1 & 2, we were given complimentary appertifs. Above is raw bison marinated in lemon juice.

we spent a lot of time relaxing. Already old farts reading the paper by the fire.

Our last stop before heading home.

Good times.
