The Proposal


Hello!  This is my first post for this blog, and I may as well start at the beginning of this adventure.   Earlier this month (June 2nd, 2011 to be exact)  My then boyfriend surprised me with a trip to Discovery Cove.  It was one of the best days ever!  More on that day below,  I guess I should actually start with how we met.

We met online 4 years ago in June 2007 through a site called "Hot or Not."  They had the option where you could say "Yes" or "No" if you would like to meet someone.  Tony has told me that my picture appeared a couple times and he put no because he thought I was "out of his league"  Luckily, my picture showed up again and he said yes.  The rest is history.
Cut back to June 2nd, 2011.    We headed down to Orlando on June 1st.   Tony had planned the whole vacation for us.  All I knew was that we would be going to Aquatica & Universal Studios,  and that our friends Beth and Gabe, whom have Universal annual passes as well, would be coming down on the Friday night.   Tony and I headed down to Orlando on Wednesday.  On the drive down he told me one of his surprises, that we would be going to Discovery Cove on Thursday.

Discovery Cove was amazing.

First we visited the Aviary and Coral Reef before our time slot with the dolphin swim.
After that we went in the lazy river they have.  Towards the beginning there is a cave you swim through with waterfalls on the outside.  Once inside there's a secluded cave part on the side with a hole in the top where you can see the bamboo.  It was a very awesome setting.  When we first went into that part Tony was getting aggrivated and making comments about it being crowded.  I suppose I should have wondered something because it was only 2 other people in there at the time and he was getting upset lol.  Once they left he proposed to me, and I say Yes! :c)  He then told me that our friends actually weren't coming down, that was just part of the story so I wouldn't catch on.  Very sneaky, but very good lol.  We spent the rest of the day at Discovery Cove.  The vacation was awesome, Friday afternoon we headed to Universal Studios, Saturday was Aquatica and Sunday we headed home.
