My Exquisite Honeymoon-P. 1

What you are about to read is an account of the happiest week of my life. 

We arrived in Denver Sunday evening exhausted and starving. Well, what were we to do but to go to the Cheesecake Factory?

It was so divine! We were incredibly hungry. Luckily, the menu is so big they have to bind it with spiral binding.

 Matthew took home a Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake Cheesecake and we left a happy, full couple. 

Beautiful, isn't it?

Monday

We decided to just enjoy being in Denver on Monday. That night we decided to visit A Taste of India.

It was so fun! Bollywood music videos were playing in the background and the food was so yummy!

 

That night, after eating our fill of chicken and vegetable curry, garlic naan, and some kind of deep fried potato curry thing, we found this car!

It says "Just Married!"

Tuesday

This was our wander-around-downtown-and-enjoy-the-sunshine day. We walked the 16th Street Mall, played on the pianos lining the streets, and watched the street performers. 

We went shopping...

 ...and walked the Pavillions..

 ...and ate the best dinner of our lives at Maggiano's.

 It was so cozy in there!

 And the food was delicious.

We left to find ourselves in a twinkling dusk as the lights on the 16th Street Mall burned through a soft rain that was falling.

Of course, we stopped at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory on the way home. Matthew got a peanut butter bucket.

I got an English toffee caramel apple.

Wednesday

Wednesday was going to be our zoo day, but the sprinkle from the night before turned into an all-out deluge. Instead, we decided to go to Cherry Creek! We rushed down to the bus station, grabbing a couple of bus tickets and a bus schedule on our way.

I found a darling headband...

...Matthew, a turban.

I found a cute hat...

...Matthew, a waffle wallet...

...and some excellent glasses...

And then, my dear, the incredible happened...

Matthew bought me a necklace from Tiffany's!

Gleeful doesn't even begin to describe how happy I was! It was such a dream come true!

After shopping to our hearts' content, we rode the bus home and scarfed our leftovers from Maggiano's while watching Monsters v. Aliens (which, by the way, was an absolutely horrible movie).

Like the rain outside, happiness continued to fall down upon us.
