Thank you for checking out our wedding/honeymoon registry website! Now, you may be asking yourself, "Why register for a honeymoon instead of kitchen appliances or fancy china or such?" To be honest, we're just grateful to have the warm thoughts of a caring community who supports our union & will take our phone calls when we need advice. Thankfully, at this point in our lives (that is, at age closer-to-forty-than-either-of-us-care-to-acknowledge), there aren't a whole lot of material goods that we really need in order to start building our household together. However, we hope we will always have room in our lives for travel & adventure. So, if you would like to give us something beyond your well wishes, then maybe you can help us see the world. You could give us the gift of a train ride across South Africa or a sunset view over Victoria Falls or a nice meal at a beachfront cafe or some other postcard-worthy moment...Besides, our memories of sun-drenched African adventures will be with us long after that toaster has stopped working & that fancy silverware has tarnished... So, thank you for checking out our registry, and remember that you needn't give us anything more than your prayers for safe travel...

We want to bring back amazing photos to share. The Olympus TG-850 is tough enough to make it back home...and it has a cool flipscreen so we can take lots of adorable "just married"-type pictures of ourselves in front of cool scenic backgrounds.

Madagascar, while immense and breathtaking, is not known for it's well-maintained roads! Due to our limited amount of time we hope to take some domestic flights to avoid the bone-rattling, 18 hour, cross-country, off-roadin' mud slogs!

Help us to enjoy a variety of cultural dishes while traveling through Madagascar and Southern Africa!

Madagascar is famed to have some of the most beautiful beaches. We hope to soak up our fair share of tropical paradise...
Gift Fulfilled
We hope to visit the West Coast of Madagascar, where we can stroll amongst the mysterious and immense Boabab trees.
Gift Fulfilled
Tsingy de Bemaraha Natural Park is a Unesco World Heritage Site. Full of otherworldly limestone spires, rope bridges, and exotic wildlife. Getting there is not easy. We'll need to hire a guide and a hardy SUV so we can explore the park for a few days...

Madagascar has one of the largest reef systems in the world. So, we hope to take advantage of this by scuba diving and getting up close & personal with all the pretty fishes : )
Gift Fulfilled
We definitely plan on exploring the rain forests of Madagascar. With so much biodiversity, we can't wait! Lemurs and fossas and sifakas, oh my!
Gift Fulfilled
We are very interested in the art & culture of the region. We will be visiting modern art museums, world-renowned architecture and many other cultural venues.

By bus or train or taxi or Zebu cart will criss-cross our way across tip of Africa. Perhaps, you help us cover some miles...

Victoria Falls is definitely on our bucket list. At 354 ft, it is nearly twice the height of Niagara Falls! We'll try to take pictures as we lounge at the very edge of the falls, in the Devil's Pool...if we can keep our hands from shaking too much...
Gift Fulfilled
Oddly enough, we are looking forward to swimming with sharks on our honeymoon [insert joke about marital spats, here]. Seriously, though - diving in a shark cage off the coast of South Africa would be pretty cool....
