Hi everyone, we’re Sulphyria and Metherion (Sulphy and Methy) from Uranus, and this is a photo story of our intergalactic honeymoon on the beautiful planet Earth. Join us on this strange journey.
This is us on our wedding day. An absolutely magical day that we’ll remember for the rest of our long lives. Everything was perfect.
And this is still us the day after the wedding. The worst hangover of our millennial future lives. We feel terrible, but happy.
It’s finally time to leave. But we forgot that Methy is absolutely terrified of flying. You’ve failed as an intergalactic citizen. Anyway, the spaceship was top-notch, and we traveled first class... losers.
We had to go through an endless number of checkpoints, even though we had an intergalactic passport. We suspect that Methy's shirt wasn't helping; it needs to be changed immediately. Honestly, I don't understand why humans are so obsessed with documents and borders—aren't they all on the same planet?
And finally, we can begin our journey—first stop, the stunning Galápagos Islands. The best part is that, to avoid more crowded airports, this time we took an old shortcut. We flew into the crater of Cotopaxi in the Andes and landed at the base of Crucita, where our cousin Axl gave us a ride to the islands.. Long live emigrated families!
Mathy with his cousin Axl, a career officer with decades of service. We hadn't seen each other in quite a while.
How on earth did humans manage to build this structure? Actually, it’s just an old, abandoned intergalactic communications station. I remembered it being bigger.
That old rebel, Leonardo. He had a very clear mission: to help humans advance in the sciences without drawing attention to himself. But he enjoyed leaving hidden messages everywhere, so we had to bring him back home. Albert and Nikola were more discreet.
Sulphy wasn't too happy with my souvenir budget. We bought these two special T-shirts; as far as I'm concerned, that's all we need.
Venice, aaaah, one of the most romantic cities on the planet. Back then, even our consultants were baffled by the idea of a city built on water using piles. But it worked. Chapeau!
We discovered that the ruins of our old intergalactic airport have become a major tourist attraction. Talk about recycling.
We also found time for an official meeting with our delegation of Intergalactic Spies. Always very kind.
Some humans love walls...
...others love peace!
Humans are truly strange; they seem incapable of thinking as a single species, living perpetually divided into two opposing camps.
They have a natural tendency toward self-destruction. Maybe we should fix a few things in the next update.
