It's quite simple! We were together at the time for 6 years and It was time. We flew from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina to Atlanta Georgia to meet up with my family, stayed for the night and then flew out the next day to start our once in a lifetime trip touring Italy with #insightvacations. All with the ring in my carry on back-pack with her trying to get into it every five minutes. She would try to go in it for headphones, snacks, sleepwear etc.

When we arrived I gave the ring to my dad to hold and with the traveling and walking and site seeing throughout the week, time started to slip away. It got to the last day and where better to do it than at the location of my favorite movie, Gladiator! It was like Fort Knox getting into the Coliseum with metal detectors at everyone point. My dad and I were handing off the ring like mission impossible back and forth getting it in without my fiance seeing.

Long story short 95-degree weather walking all over Italy for 8 days and seeing 9 cities we were tired and hot and I made her do one final hike to the top of the Coliseum for a "picture" and she was still as beautiful as the day I saw her. She knew something was up when all 31 out of 33 members of our tour group had their cameras out... you know the rest.

Thankfully she said yes, and I shouted, "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!"
