This is the very flat beach leading up to the club house.
The ceremony took place up next to the club house.

Saturday morning Hanna's relatives hooked us up with a boat
ride out to Bird Island, to see the birds and sea lions.
Here you can see Cheryl, Steve, TJ, Joy, and Ming-Hui -
as well as our chauffeur.
|
|
Here's Paul, sportin his hat to keep the sunburn away.
|
|
Steve & TJ, enjoying the ride. See how flat that water is?
Made for a very smooth ride considering we're in the gulf.
|
|
This is bird island. Can you guess why it is called "Bird"
island? I'll give you one hint, it has to do with the color
of the rocks.

Our sister ship, with the cute little mexican boy and his
father standing on the bow.
|
|
The folks from the other boat got out and swam with the
sea lions. Some of the sea lions were pretty curious
and swam towards the people, but eventually one of
the two parties got scared and went the other way.
|
|
Katy & Joy tried to approach a sea lion, but they weren't
quite able to catch up to one before it got scared and
turned away.
|
|
Dolphins. And Dolphins. And more Dolphins Here you see how close the dolphins
got to the boats, almost within arm's reach.
|
|
This was the view straight down from the side of the boat.
I count at least 4 dolphins in this shot. To say we saw
a lot of dolphins is a severe understatement.
|
|
Katy and Cheryl took the hourses out for a walk on the beach.
|
|
It's finally time. The crowd has gathered.
I didn't mean to have my camera in
Sepia mode, but this image turned out pretty good nonetheless.
|
|
Photos had to be before the wedding because the sun was setting
as the wedding concluded.
|
|
I didn't get very many shots of the wedding in progress
as I was turned into a sheet music stand (I was back
behind holding the music for Steve to play the keyboard)
which proved to be a difficult task given the sea breeze,
but we made it.
|
|
And here's Marc & Hanna with the sun setting.
|
|
And a beautiful sunset to end a beautiful day.
