Weekend getaway


Present- September 2015

"You look amazing!" My husband greeted me with a whistle and soft kiss. I melted into him and pulled his neck down for more. Clearly ok with it he moved his hands to my waist and drew me closer to him. When his tongue entered my mouth I moaned and pulled away.

"As much as I'd like to finish this we've been at it since lunch and I'm now starving." I fixed my dress which he had managed to lift to my waist. We were on a short weekend trip and had just finished getting ready to go eat. My loving husband had actually surprised me with this trip to a small island called Catalina. It was cute how he told me, he woke me up at 5:30am, that wasn't cute he knows I'm not a morning person. But he managed to awake me enough to hand me an envelope with two ferry tickets. My mother was in town already and he confessed to sending her out here to watch the boys for the weekend.  The tickets were dated for that morning so we hurried to get ready and make the drive north to catch the boat.

We've been to Catalina a handful of times and each time we loved it. On the ferry ride over I was so excited to spend some much needed alone time together.  Once docked at Avalon Harbor we made the familiar yet always exciting exit, stopping for a moment to look overboard taking in the clear water and the bright orange Garibaldi swimming beneath. I was eager to get in the water so we put our bags in the lockers and walked toward the beach past the casino, which is actually a ballroom and theatre no gambling there.

We had brought our own gear and quickly got in the water. After snorkeling for a couple hours we got out and grabbed some Pina coladas, the delicious cold fruity flavor was just what I needed,  I love vacation.

We cleaned up and changed in the restroom and headed to the realtor to get the condo keys. Since this weekend was a surprise I didn't know where we were staying and on the cab ride over I was very glad to be heading outside the city to a large condo complex built into the cliff. The villas were bright white with spanish tile roofs. The advantage to building the villas so steep was the breathtaking views of the ocean.

We walked down the long flight of stairs and found our home for the next few days. The entrance was nicely decorated with a large photo of the island on the left and several smaller pictures of beach scenes on the right. I set my bag down and hurried to the best part, the view, opening the dark wood french doors I took in the miles of ocean in front of me. Closer to the beach it was a lighter green which darkened to deep blue further from the shore. I couldn't wait to jump in again but was interrupted by soft kisses along my neck and shoulder. I shivered and It didn't take long before we moved to the bedroom and were panting from exhaustion. The first time that day was quick, my husband teased it was because he spent a good part of the day staring at my ass while snorkeling. I pushed at him and that began a playful wrestle which then turned into another round. This time we were slow and took our time feeling every sensation. A few orgasms later I was starving. And that's what brings us to now.

 I had showered and put on a tight green cocktail dress, it was short and was high in the front with a bright gold zipper in the back. My husband had put on jeans and a nice light blue button down with the sleeves rolled up. We headed up the numerous stairs to our golf cart, another perk of staying here.  The island had very few cars since there was a limit on how many cars were allowed. So most everyone used golf carts.

We breezed down the hill and I drank in the ocean breeze. It was warm out and the wind in our hair was refreshing. We passed by a zipline where someone was flying down screaming with excitement, they may have an incredible view up there but you can't convince me to go on that, no thanks. We also saw a couple deer hanging out by the trees. The drive to the restaurant was short and we were quickly seated and sipping on avalon ice tea, their version of the long Island.  Dinner was amazing,  dinning on scallops and swordfish and some cheesy jalapeƱo lobster dip that was hard to stop eating.

"Man I love vacation," my husband said as he spread more dip on a slice of bread.

"Hehe,  me too! Thanks for doing this,  I know things have been busy and we really needed this."

He reached for my hand and intertwined his fingers through mine.

"Babe, anything for you. We both needed this. I came home late last week, the kids were complaining about something and you were running all over the place, you were so cute you had some flour on your cheek. When I kissed you I was going to wipe it off but I didn't. Even though our busy world is adorable on you, that's when I knew we needed this. So I called your mom and got her to come watch the kids.  The rest fell into place and now I'm here with my favorite person getting tipsy and stuffed." He patted his flat stomach to emphasize he was full. I giggled a little, and leaned in to kiss him. I intended to just give him a quick peck but I couldn't help holding it and deepening it. Before we made a scene my husband asked for the check and we hurried back (as fast as the little cart would take us.)

We spent the rest of the night making love and eventually passed out in a sweaty and blissful tangled mess.

We awoke late and spent the day kayaking and snorkeling.  We beached the kayak at a rocky shore where only a couple other people were at. There was a large rock protruding out of the water about 20 feet from shore so we got our masks on and explored around it. I saw a small stingray and a plethora of fish. We started swimming further from the rock, I looked over my shoulder and just saw the deep. I love the water but every once in a while I get a little creeped out when I can't see what's out there.  I looked at my now pruney hands and decided I was ready to go back in so I tapped my partner to tell him. He raised his head and just then something popped out of the water behind his head. I froze and tried grabbing him toward me. He held me tight and we looked to see that it wasn't a shark but a small seal. It snorted and looked right at us. I'm not really scared of seals but it is a little weird swimming next to them so I gripped tighter on to my husband. The gray and white spotted mammal turned away from us like we were a bore and swam off. I started laughing when I told him what his face looked like when I yanked him.

"You eyes were so big, hahaha."

"You can't blame me your face was whiter then Casper, what the hell you freaked me out." He was laughing too so I knew he wasn't mad.

"Well I was shaking in my flippers, come on let's get out for awhile." We headed back in the kayak and spent the rest of the day lounging around, with a couple naked "naps" in between.

Our last night we heated up the grill and threw on some fresh fish and potatoes. We stayed on the balcony soaking in the view and breeze. I was sad to leave tomorrow but also missing the kids. I leaned into my man, I was completely at rest and happy. It was the perfect way to spend our weekend.

  1. This is magical! I can't believe you are able to live that kind of life. Where do you find men like that?! That want to keep you around and spoil you because I'm certainly not finding them in Alberta.
    Love you blog by the way. I look forward to reading more of your experiences and adventures.
