Honeymoon Highlights

Everyone's been asking about the honeymoon so I thought I'd post about it.

For those of you who dont already know we spent our honeymoon in Los Angeles. Not the typical honeymoon destination, I know, but what else would you expect from us? There we visited museums, architectual sites (bet you cant guess why), and beaches, saw sunsets, and brushed elbows with celebrities.

The highlight of our week had to be our stay at the Roosevelt Hotel. I must note that we would not have found the Roosevelt without the help of my myspace friend Tyler Shields. We were planning on splurging for one night in a nice hotel and thanks to Tyler ended up here. But the best part came after being let down, disappointed and then frustrated. Our first room was nice, as it should be, but the A/C wasnt working, then the shower didnt drain. Not what you'd expect from a luxury hotel. They moved us to a second room that was the same as the first but with working a/c. The best part came when our keys to our new room didnt work. Upon returning the keys we encountered a hotel manager named Saye. Saye treated us like stars. After all of our disappointment he came through and rectified our stay. Saye moved us to a poolside cabana room, worth nearly three times what our first room was worth, but it didnt end there. He asked us to meet him in the bar where he bought us drinks and then he went a step further and had strawberries and a bottle of champagne sent to our room. We were so impressed we ended up staying a second night.

Our honeymoon would have been perfect regardless but this made it over the top perfect. Dominic are luckier than we even know sometimes. I'd like to take a second to thank the powers that be for all our blessings.
Thank you.

Below are a few pictures from our stay at the Roosevelt.
