2 nights here is almost as much as our mortgage....what the heck?

Our 10 year anniversary is still 6 months away, but we decided to look online at room rates for the Ritz-Carlton in Laguna Niguel, CA. Why there, you ask? Brian proposed to me on the beach below that Ritz-Carlton. After accepting his PROPOSAL we thought it would be fun to come and stay for our 10 year anniversary. It sounded so far away and figured by then we would be raking in the dough. Unfortunately that "money tree" that was supposed to be huge and full is still a little shrub.

After checking prices on the web we were blown away and very disappointed that two night there would be like paying our mortgage for one month. Can you believe it? I guess we will have to save our pennies and maybe for our 50th anniversary we can go. By that time we probably won't enjoy ourselves as much because we will be OLD.


If you know a way to find cheaper rate on the internet PLEASE, PLEASE let me know.

I totally remember that you guys said you were going to stay at the Ritz for your 10 year anniversary. I can't believe how expensive it is...I can' believe you have been married for 10 years. the only website that I know of is hotels.com
