BF Planning Surprise Trip!

royalasschergirl Cut Rock Total Posts: 112 Last Post: 5/23/2006 Member Since: 12/21/2004	Hey ladies!! I haven't posted anything yet because its seemed so far away -- but now the trip is getting close and I'm DYING to find out what's up!!!! My birthday was June 6 and we went to NYC for that weekend, but he said he didn't have a gift for me, and that what he wanted to do was to plan a trip and take me somewhere as a birthday present. He suggested 4th of July weekend, so we'll be leaving on Thursday, June 30th and returning Monday July 4th! He hasn't told me anything about it, and he says I won't know anything until I get to the airport! He knows that I am sneaky and i HATE surprises (hate them b/c i want to know NOW, not because i don't appreciate them!) so he's carefully planned everything at work and kept everything from home. He didn't use my frequent flyer number because he knew i'd look up reservations online, and he's even used 2 separate airlines so when i get to the first airport i will know the connection point, but won't know the final destination until the 2nd airport! UGGGHHHHHH!!! Don't get me wrong, i'm thrilled to have someone so romantic, and that loves me enough to plan something like this, but its ALL i think about!! I haven't posted yet because i decided i'd wait to put it on the board until i couldn't stand it anymore, so here it is!! I finally caved and had to write about it!! The only clues he's given me were from a travel book from the resort and he said, "the temperature is 80, there is a hiking trail called "adventures in paradise", it is an extremely hilly place, and there are broken bottle dancers!" I'm thinking Hawaii, but i have no idea!!! I wish i could wiggle my little nose and get there RIGHT NOW!!! Thanks for listening, have a great weekend, LIW!!!

royalasschergirl Cut Rock Total Posts: 112 Last Post: 5/23/2006 Member Since: 12/21/2004	ACOA--He IS a romantic -- our first date was a surprise as well, he took me to the Biltmore house, but i didn't know where we were going until we got there. He just said, 'i'll pick you up at 9am, wear comfortable clothes! We had the best time, he got the tickets in advance and it was just perfect!! Rube--- WHERE AM I GOING, WHERE AM I GOING?!! Blueroses --- We picked out the ring in January, and i know he's paid for it, and he said the setting has been made. What if this IS it?! I was thinking it was going to be in March when we were in Paris, London, Rome and Brussels for 2 weeks, but no dice! But he's told me it won't be for another few months, so i'm trying not to get my hopes up!! But no matter what happens, you better believe i'll tell you girls ALL about it when i get home, and i'll hopefully have some pretty pictures to post as well!

And if you think I'D ruin your trip after all this planning your BF has done, you're crazy. Have a great time! And if you happen to come across an asscher somewhere along the way, snap some pics!

blueroses Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,219 Last Post: 11/18/2009 Member Since: 11/15/2004	I wonder if he's trying to throw you off....this trip sounds like a PERFECT time for him to do it!!! (And believe me, I've been waiting to see your ring!! -- 2.63ct, right?) Either way it will be romantic and fun, but this sounds a LIIIITLE bit like it could be IT!!!!

royalasschergirl Cut Rock Total Posts: 112 Last Post: 5/23/2006 Member Since: 12/21/2004	matatora -- Yes, i did click it!! but i have to think, if we are only going for a few days (thursday returning monday) then we probably can't be going to hawaii?! I was thinking as a plan b maybe Bermuda, since its right off the coast of NC? (we live in charlotte!) Blueroses -- yes, its a 2.63 R.A., i just can't wait! Whenever I get it, i'll put pictures up right after i call my mom!! Its been 6 months since i saw it, so it'll be like seeing it all over again!!

blueroses Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,219 Last Post: 11/18/2009 Member Since: 11/15/2004	Bermuda sounds like a good guess--except that you'd probably be able to get a non-stop from Charlotte, and you mentioned changing planes? I wonder!! My interest is totally piqued!! It will be like a never-before-seen stone after all this time! How exciting (I went to Davidson, so I know Charlotte a bit......though it's changed a lot since I was there)

Rube Cut Rock Total Posts: 323 Last Post: 1/24/2006 Member Since: 4/11/2005	OMG, you're right, I am just being a terrible tease. Not my intention, of course. I am just like RAG with surprises! I want to know RIGHT THEN. So, although I do not condone looking everywhere to find out (and I cannot figure out how to post a link), I'll just tell anyone interested to do a little google search on the broken bottle dancers. I have only heard anyone talk about them in relation to one place before. But look at your own risk. Rube

I'm relentless...I always tell my bf I want a surprise and then usually I figure it out before hand. I'm such a little snoop when I know there is a surprise in the works. Your trip is going to be so much fun! That's really sweet that he's taking the time to do all the planning and everything on his own. I love when guys do that. But honestly, I dont know how you're handling this. I'd be waaay to giddy to concentrate on anything else if I knew that there was this huge surprise in the works. I think I have it figured out thoughyou should definitely stay away from google, what a true test of your will power! Fill us in when you get back, of course.

ANd I hope that it is, but if it isnt we still hants pics, just maybe silgjhtly less focused on your hand...

Tomorrow morning at this time i'll be on a plane to someplace somewhere!! I am very excited -- I thought briefly that this might be "the time" but he's basically given me every indication that its not -- and I talked to my mom this morning who told me to be prepared not to be disappointed if it didn't happen, etc., so i wonder if she knows something i don't. Anyway, i'm still excited, I know it'll be a blast no matter what but i have to be honest, I am SO READY -- i know you girls can relate. I have been waiting for 7 months since the ring has been picked out, i'm just super ready!!! Anyway, I won't be able to post again before we leave so happy july 4th to everyone, i'll let you know how the trip was and where we went as soon as i get back!!!
