Romance in the Air!

Most married couples, on the occasion of their wedding anniversary, dress up in romantic fancy clothes and go out for a romantic dinner. Or they travel to a romantic location for a romantic weekend.

I, however, was whisked away for an utterly romantic...

























...camel ride!

As you can see, a lovely time was had by all, although I now have a profound understanding of why some folks in the Middle East often seem a bit crotchety. Getting up and down on a camel is akin to enduring an earthquake, but not quite as smooth.

Happy Anniversary, Dahling! And thanks for 23 years of romance! And adventure!

    And they say bunnies look disapproving! Looks like fun in an interesting (but good) way.

    That is AWESOME! And to think for our 30th I was thinking about Cape Cod (original honeymoon). I like yours SO much better!

    Happy Anniversary to you both! I can't think of a better celebration then with camels and the minor earthquakes they provide. :)

    Chiming in with another belated "happy anniversary" wish! Y'all are just adorable. It is truly fabulous and heart-warming to read about you guys having such a fun, "together" sort of marriage. Does my jaded old soul good.

    Happy Anniversary!

    You look quite happy up on those camels. I'm a bit disappointed you didn't dress up in full desert gear for the occasion, but it looks like you're having a great time anyway.

    I rode a camel in Egypt at the great pyramids. I did not think I wanted to do such a thing but my friend was insistant.

    I loved it. It was one of the best things I did in Africa. And the photos I got from waaay up on a camel, at a distance from the pyramids? Wonderful.
