Living the good life!

From now on please address me as Mister. I am now happily married to
the woman of my dreams and we are having a wonderful honeymoon in
Hawaii on the big island. Now most of you would not consider having an
allergic reaction to sunscreen and turning half-red without being
sunburned to be a good time. But alas, you do not know my wife. She
is definitely a glass more than half full kind of girl. She covered up
with cortizone cream at 6am to get us to my deep sea fishing trip on
time with a smile on her face. We sat down and ate a delicious lunch
at the Harbor House since we got skunked (but great company from the
Fire Hatt crew and saw 2 pods of pilot whales to make it a successful
trip) and were by that time famished. Only then did she decide it was
time to go find a doctor as benadryl and cortizone cream did not seem
to be working. Turns out the fancy spf 85 spray on sunscreen was the
culprit and the first uneventful beach day was because the skin had to
be sensitized from first contact before it would react. "Contact
dermatitus" was the diagnosis. The recovery process has begun and we
took advantage of room service sushi at sunset that was arguably
better than the sunset cruise we took the night before since we have
such an amazing view from our room. We have taken to reading/blogging
from our room/balcony after enjoying room service brunch and will be
more than ready to enjoy our Luau tonight and still have three more
days in paradise together. I am a very lucky man with a most wonderful
wife and we cannot wait to start our lives together (well, except for
this honeymoon thing!).
