Saturday Drinking and Honeymoon Thread

Submitted by xtramelanin on

Mates,

Happy Saturday, Summer is here, obligatory 'What are you drinking' thread.

Drove by the farm down the road and my friends' daughter is getting married in 90+ degree heat, outdoors.  It is indeed wedding season and it occurred to me that it might be fun to have a honeymoon thread.  

So, today's bonus question is this:  Where did you go and what did you do on your honeymoon?

N.B. - This is a 'G'-rated question.  Hatter,  Dr.Jaws, a few of you others, this is not a question about your spouse's anatomy or their athletic prowess.  Show-offs. 

Hope you got out and enjoyed the heat today, maybe went swimming or were productive at your house.  Have a great Sunday too.

Vodka. Always vodka. I've never had a honeymoon but I have had two different brides to be pick me for an innocent kiss on their bachelorette parties. Fun times.

Not currently drinking unfortunately. Honeymoon is relevant to me though. Went to Norway and got back about a week and a half ago. It was awesome. It was also extremely expensive. Oslo is so great. Bergen is cool too and is beautiful. I recommend it but only if you are ready to spend a lot of money.

with about 1/2 of my football teammates 20 yrs ago at my buddy's ranch.  we fished, dove, rode horses, and of course had some adult beverages.  though it's been years since i've been there, i'd stay away from town.  

i recommend going north to a place called rancho leonero.  its about 60 miles from cabo, near a town called buena vista and i suspect your identity won't be an issue...dr. kimball.  lots to do, but not the night life craziness.   of course, maybe that's your thing.  congrats and enjoy.

We honeymooned in Cabo as well. Beautiful trip. We enjoyed the catamaran dinner cruise along the coast and out into the pacific. That ocean is so powerful. We also loved the bicycle taxi we took into town to Gordo Lele's. It's a little hole in the wall, but they made us the best tacos we've ever had. Also, if you like to golf they have some great courses down there. The wife went to the spa so I took off for a quick 18. Extremely hot but still nice.

Haven't started yet but soon to crack a Sierra Nevada Torpedo.

Also haven't married yet but the date is coming up. My fiancee wanted a Saturday fall wedding and as much as it pained me I agreed to it because she is pretty great. So we picked the date Oct 15th and I immediately checked the schedule and see Penn State. I think, well that sucks pretty big game to miss. Lo and behold through the miracle power of Harbaugh a week later our schedule magically changes and October 15th becomes the bye week. 

I am choosing to believe that this change was made soley because Harbaugh didn't want me to miss a game.

Just accepted a full amount offer for my house. Taking the pile of equity and buying acreage where we can build a small house and a huge yard for LSA Aught Dog.

We went to Bora Bora for our honeymoon, easily the most beautiful place I have ever been. It probably ruined all future beach vacations for us.

Currently out running errands, but I will be enjoying a refreshing Txakolina when I get back home.

Went on an Alaskan cruise. It was awesome. Most people don't realize, but the coast is a rain forest. Fun times zip lining in the forest as well as watching glaciers calve and seeing more bald eagles than we could count.

Older crowd, but that didn't matter too much to us since it was a honeymoon. After landing in Anchorage, we went to Denali for a few days. Absolutely amazing there.

Drinking Rampant IPA.

Went to NYC for the honeymoon. Had such an awesome time. Drinking Harp and Smithwicks at Irish Fest in Kzoo.

Me and Mrs. MGoBoz did the standard Cancun honeymoon all inclusive package. Got a free snorkel trip to Isla Mujeres and brought the old GoPro. Got some great underwater pictures. Also, for any of you heading there soon, highly recommend Xplor Fuego, which is a night trip to the nearby forest for zip lining, underwater cavern swimming, and cavern canoeing.

Honeymooned at Fiji.
We did Fiji type stuff.
Terrific diving reefs. Turtles are way bigger and way faster than I thought.
Advice take off your new wedding ring when in the ocean.
A resort employee found it after an hour of searching in the reefs.

Just got my hands on Forged Oak to complete my orphan barrel selection and bookers rye LE and 7 bottles of 2001 Knob Creek LE. I'm currently drinking the Knob Creek batch#2. Which is amazing.

My wedding is in September we are going to Hawaii
