Tahiti - Rugrat's first few days were spent on islands in the French Polynesia - those lucky little cell! Anyone looking for the magic elixer might try the South Pacific Chi-Chi. 1 part vodka
2 parts pineapple juice
1 part coconut cream
topped with a slice of pineapple & a cherry.
His first athletic activities included wakeboarding and surfing (well attempted surfing)
Orlando & Venice Florida - I was working in Orlando then spent a nice weekend with the great grandparents-to-be (they didn't know yet). The highlight was, as usual, dinner at Sharky's on the pier and true to its name we actually saw a fisherman haul in a 4ft shark right on the pier.
New Orleans - Before we knew "the kid" was a boy he was allowed to tag along on a girls weekend in the French Quarter. I skipped some tasty looking Hurricanes for the little guy.
Denver - A fantastic wedding in the Red Rocks amphetheatre visitor center...I hope everyone else enjoyed the food. Rugrat decided that oyster crackers were all his mom could eat for this whole weekend.
St. John, US Virgin Islands - Our friends Jon & Jess had a beautiful wedding on the beach. We enjoyed a small "baby moon" with nice dinners out and lots of beach time.
Rome & Frankfurt - Work trips...baby toured around the vatican city on a weekend in Rome but I don't think he really enjoyed the sights.
Pittsburgh/Morgantown - Family party and baby shower over the 4th of July
Rochester/Edinburgh/Newcastle/London - A work/personal combo trip. Stopped in Rochester for 12 hours to help celebrate Whitney & Brians recent marriage. Then onto Edinburgh for a last mini-vacation before the baby arrives and a weekend in Newcastle to be a part of Amanda & Paul's amazing wedding in a 13th century castle! Finally a stop in London for some final international work before travel restrictions set in.
Cleveland- Debbie & Brady's wedding - what a blast. Snuck in some fancy stroller test driving too!
Chicago - Julie & Jaime's wedding - another great one and at this one we realized by belly was now too big for even comfortable slow dancing!
I think that's an almost complete list of all the places this baby has already been - what a lucky guy!
