With the wedding in the works & plans coming along quite smoothly, We have now started plans for our next phase of our new life together...the honeymoon!
We first thought that we had a free three day stay at any of the Marriott hotels...unfortunately that ship has sailed and that offer is no longer available to us. This now translates into a honeymoon is TOO much money! Well...at least a "tradtional" honeymoon has proven to be quite expensive.
So...what now? I'm honestly not very disappointed...in the end we are proud to say we are paying for everything ourselves and are blessed to still have money in our pockets at the end of all of this.
So here are a few things we are considering, until we save up for our one-year anniversary and take a big vacation. (Keep in mind that Option 1 is probably my favorite!)
1. Staycation. We might get a fancy-schmanzy hotel in Anaheim (thanks to that great site from priceline!) and go to Disneyland and eat at the Blue Bayou and Ariel's Grotto,and other touristy type stuff...and the next day visit San Diego Wild Animal Park, and splurge on safari rides and backstage passes.
2. Santa Barbara. Which is beautiful and romantic, I hear. But might take up lots of ouur gas money and we'd have to get a hotel here for our first night and then there for a few more...but well worth it, maybe?
3. Stow away in somebody's luggage and head off to a beautful Hawaiin island!
I also don't really mind option 3. Sound kinda fun!
