Goodbye, for now

The wedding was fantastic, thanks to everyone who came and made it as special as it could possibly be. A HUGE thanks to the parents, who did way more than we could have ever asked. Both Kim and I realize how lucky we are. I feel especially lucky to have the friends that I do, not just anyone would travel across 2 states to be in a wedding. Not to mention traveling all the way from Michigan to West Virginia for a bachelor party on a holiday weekend. Ed posted a nice little blog on his myspace page that almost made me tear up. Almost, I said.

The honeymoon was amazing! A whole week in a Costa Rican resort with a different tour every day. We saw a volcano erupt at night, swam in hot springs while sipping pina coladas, cruised down a river surrounded by all sorts of birds, lizards, and crocodiles. We went spelunking in underground caves, chest deep in water in some places while hundreds of bats fluttered inches above our heads. And of course, we rocketed above the trees of the rainforest on ziplines. I took tons of photos (filled up 7GB of memory cards) and I'll be posting them to my flickr page when I get a chance.

We'll be leaving for Poland wednesday afternoon and will probably be offline for about a month, so this will be my last update for a little while. But don't worry, I plan on getting back in touch with everyone as soon as we get settled in. We're going to try that Vonage thing which lets you keep your old number. That way I don't have to switch to a wierd Polish phone system where all the numbers end with "ski".

It's going to be pretty hectic right until we take off for the airport, but hopefully we'll get everything taken care of that we need to. That includes sending Ed and Joe the T-shirts I got for them in Costa Rica. I didn't get Alan one because they didn't have the only one he would've liked in his size. Besides, he doesn't get a present until Kim and I get one from him. Jackass.
