Honeymoon in Miami

Soon after the wedding festivities Rafa and Jasmyn were whisked away on a plane to spend over a week in Miami, Florida for their honeymoon.

It was a great time! Lots of sunshine and the Beacon Hotel right on the beach that Jasmyn's Dad arranged was amazing. Ocean Drive was at our frontstep where we made many evening walks. Across the street we rollerbladed along the beach. We ate delicious seafood at Joe's Stone Crabs and visited the beautiful Vizcaya mansion and gardens. One night we went to a recommended dance place..he he..where we ended up feeling like part of rap music video with jamming hip hop music and almost all very cool looking african americans who did more watching from sofas than dancing.

The honeymoon we joked for the first few days was more like a "moon" because during the day we were meeting with Jasmyn's family and also doing excursions in the van to places like The Everglades and the Keys with Rafa's family (who also spent some vacation time in Miami before returning to Santiago). It seemed we only saw each other only when we drew in for the night. Yet the time with family was amazing. Jasmyn´s family on her Dad's side threw us a huge wedding celebration where we relaxed by Uncle Stephen's pool, ate Shortie's BBQ and even got to cut wedding cake again. It was a beautiful time.

We are so thankful to have had such wonderful weather and a lovely time in Miami!
