Rethinking the Honeymoon

We are anxiously awaiting the end of the semester and for Aaron's passport to arrive!  After some discussions and budget meetings, we think that while we would love to visit Montreal and Quebec City for our honeymoon, it would be extra awesome to be there in winter for the Quebec winter carnival.


Um, awesome!  (source)

So that would be a really fun first anniversary gift. (the traditional gift is paper - a plane ticket totally counts!)

As you can tell, I am longing for a get away in the much nearer future, and would like somewhere romantic-ish to go, but that isn't super expensive (ie: Paris) or isn't super typical (ie: crowded with tourists; ie: Cabo/Cancun)  Plus Aaron isn't really a beach guy at all, so I have to factor this into the equation.

Well it must be my lucky day/month/life because he has agreed to go on a cruise to Bermuda!!

And with luck, we will return home safe, lol  (source)

Insert Nerd Alert:  He thinks Bermuda would be interesting to visit because it is the second oldest continuously inhabited English settlement in the New World (after Jamestown).  This knowledge will win us Jeopardy! at some point I hope, lol.  

The cruise leaves out of NYC on June 3rd and is a week long, so we will get there in about a day and a half, and get to spend about four whole days on the island!  Win!  



Hello paradise!

So I am super duper looking forward to the trip, and it will be here before we know it! :D  (And now, Aaron won't quit singing Kokomo by the Beach Boys...ugh, lol)




Update 4/30/12: trip is booked!!!
