Prince & Princess for a Day


I had gone to Boldt Castle years ago, however, going there once again was like the first time.  They've done so much work to the place.  The romantic 'Heart Island' provides the saddest love story ever told.

Geoff and I both enjoy travelling to different local areas around where we live.  There's so much to see already in our own Country.....let alone our own Province!

The day was gorgeous and sunfilled with a gentle breeze that kept us cool enough while visiting the castle.  We entertained the idea of getting married at the castle, but, we want simple, and the castle would be too elegant for the type of wedding we are looking to have.  Campground, marshmallow, crazy guitar people singing around a campfire is going to be it!  I'm anxious to be married to my prince, and I don't need a castle to say I DO!

I haven't written on here much about weight loss these days.  The reason is that the weight has slowed down quite considerably and basically there isn't much to report.  I am still going to the gym as much as possible and seems that the pounds are not coming off, but the inches still are.  The only explanation for this would be that while working out, I'm building muscle which weighs more than fat, and I'm toning, therefore losing inches around the places I really want to lose them.

It was really neat how I didn't mind Geoff taking shots of me at the Castle.  I actually enjoyed having my picture taken for once.  It's a big change for me to have my picture from head to toe taken of me.  Prior to my surgery, I didn't allow anything below my neck most of the time.  I'd crop the pictures.  Now, I'm who I am, I still have faults, still have some hang ups about parts of my body.  After massive weight loss, there is no escape from skin sagging, except for plastic surgery.  The important aspect of the surgery, was primarily to be healthy!  And that I am!

If you have your passport and want to take a boat cruise to Heart Island, I definetely recommend it.  Take your loved on with you to share a romantic and loving experience together.

Cheers,
