WE WON! :THE HONEYMOON PACKAGE

It all started with a tag on facebook  by two of my friends on a post that required individuals to share an embarrassing story about their first date inorder to stand a chance to win a wedding makeover and a honeymoon package....it was almost a month of 'annoying' friends to like my comment and help us win and long story short...we won!!! (Taking this opportunity to thank everyone who took time to like and share my comment, God bless you)

Forgive my brief introduction, I just want to get to the juicy parts of this story, It is a long story so I will split it into two; The makeover journey and the honeymoon....and because we have been asked alot 'How was the honeymoon?' and we have just been grinning sheepishly not knowing what to answer, I will start with the honeymoon....(Real reason:The quality pictures for the makeover are not ready yet..:-) )

So it would be the third place we would be staying at since we became Mr and Mrs, and we thought we had seen it all until we got to Amani Tiwi Beach Resort. This place is beautiful! I will let the pictures speak for me for a moment here;

This is us being all 'touristy' and asked our kind cab driver to take a picture of us before we drove in...The management allowed us in....;-)

We were then welcomed by these guys and again..being all 'touristy' we joined in the dance....(ignore the huge suitcase)

We were welcomed by a cocktail...may I say, this is all we drank throughout our stay here, it was too good to resist (forgive the lighting)

Someone got a bit cosy as we were being briefed  about our stay in the hotel....(Bado..hatujafika room Mr....)

We were then taken up to our room, including the big suitcase that you ignored up there.....Again let me let the pictures speak....

Ain't this fancy.....

The view from our room....

We then freshened up and went out to have lunch, the food confused one of us (I will not say which one of us) and ended up crawling after the buffet, the hotel offered a variety of foods from Indian cuisine to 'kikuyu' cuisine.....

Sorry no food pictures....I might have been confused....:-)

We then went off and had a friendly match(kinda friendly ) in table tennis to allow the food to digest......(we were all winners!! Lol I lost)

Did I mention that there was a long pool from the reception area to the beach front? Oh I didn't,,,,again I might have been confused by the food.....so after sweating it out at the 'court' we went in for a dive....oooh the Mr went in for a dive as I walked in the water and he taught me how to float and see under water....(He is a patient teacher)

As the evening set in, the pool area was changed into a dinning area, with tables around the pool and a stage set up for the evening entertainment......and they reserved for us a special table next to the pool......Picture time:

 The dancers

Our special dessert (ignore the bitten mahamri, aki tulijibonda!!)

My handsome date ;-)....

The night ended with guests being welcomed to the dance floor to join the dancing crew, and since tulikua tumejibonda!( we had eaten alot) we just sat there looking at the moon and chatting away......

So I will let the pictures speak for our first day here and My handsome date will be sharing on our second day on his blog soon ( HERE)....and if he doesn't say I almost won in playing pool...I have told you guys....I almost did....

They marked our door with these beautiful flowers.......(The 'do not disturb' sign maybe?)

 The lounge area of the room

Serious table tennis (Call me Enid Serena Williams Nzisa Ngugi)
