Here are some pictures from our anniversary weekend. We stayed at a cute little Bed & Breakfast in Cambridge, MD and the owners made fantastic breakfasts! The first morning we had spinach, mushroom, and gouda frittata (I don't even know what a frittata is, but it was gooood) and the second morning we had Belgian waffles!! Mmmm, my favorite!! Cambridge is a great, old historical town on the Chesapeake Bay and we loved walking around the marina and the antique shops downtown.
On Saturday, we kayaked through the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. When we were just starting out Brandon told me to "pace myself" because he didn't want to be doing all the paddling on the way back. He knows me too well ;-) He did end up doing about 75% of the paddling anyways, though. It was alot of fun but we were out from 11-2 and forgot sunscreen so we both got a little sunburnt. I was really confused as to why I kept getting sunburnt this summer until I read that pregnant women are much more prone to burning. Ohhhhhh, so I guess I better use sunscreen for the rest of the summer. On Saturday night, Brandon took me out to dinner. We found a great restaurant and ate like kings for only $22 each. He had steak and shrimp and I had a lobster tail. In DC, the same dinner would have cost us close to $50 each. I love small towns!!
On Sunday, we checked out of our B & B and drove to the coast because I had never even seen the Atlantic Ocean. We went to Rehoboth beach which was by far the most crowded beach I have ever been to. You could barely walk down to the water without stepping on somebody. But it was really nice to seen an ocean (any ocean) again. I ran and jumped right in. However, the Atlantic Ocean is much colder than the Pacific and there were rocks on the bottom. Also, there were just puny little waves, but hey, it was an ocean and I was glad to see it. On the way home, we stopped in Annapolis for dinner and walked around marina. All in all, it was a fantastic weekend. We had alot of time to talk, sit, relax, read, sleep, and just enjoy each other. Next year, (when our twins are 8 months old and scooting around the house) I think we'll be lucky if we even remember to say Happy Anniversary!
I told you I didn't paddle much ;-)
This is our precious little room at the B & B
This is my first time in the Atlantic Ocean, sooo cold!
This is the crowded beach, I have never seen anything like it. I don't think there are many beaches around so every single person from Maryland, Delaware, DC and Virginia has to go to the same one.
