Honeymoon

No ambiguity in the title of this entry! Jon and I had a brief, low key honeymoon in Cornwall the weekend following our little wedding. It was a trip that had already been planned for Jon's birthday which was 3 days after the wedding. It was a nice relaxing long weekend. I love that part of the country and don't go as often as I'd like and wanted Jon to see it. We stayed at a gorgeous B&B in Penzance called the Summer House and drove around some of the sights in the area.

On arrival at the hotel the Lady of the House greeted us with congratulations which I thought was a bit strange as I didn't remember telling her it was a honeymoon but figured I must have and my baby brain had deleted that bit of information. But when she showed us to our room I realised how she knew. There was a beautiful basket of flowers from my colleagues and a bottle of Champagne from my boss waiting for us there. I was pretty touched and then laughed as I recalled how curious my office friends had been about where we were staying! They had given me a big surprise send off at the office complete with confetti, bubbly, cake and John Lewis vouchers so I hadn't expected anything like this. What lovely people they are.

We had a great time and I started having pipe dreams about moving to the seaside and spending warm summer evenings on the beach with the kids and a dog, but then I slapped myself until I saw sense!
