    We are going to one of the Excellence resorts in Cancun, either Playa Mujeres or Rivera Cancun.  We were at the one in P*nta Cana, and loved it so much that we want to go to another Excellence resort.

    3 days in Disney World followed by a 7-night Disney Cruise to the Western Caribbean (Key West, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, and Disney's private island in the Bahamas).  Loved every minute of it so much we're going back this summer.

    Most of the islands in the Atlantic will have hurricanes... get travel insurance... My parents were married 9/15 (in 1979) and have taken several anniversary trips in Sept.  They have never had a problem, but its a chance you take.

    We are going to Fiji for a little over 3 weeks and plan to island hop, explore, and snorkel.  The zipline sounds really cool.

    The cruise was actually a terrific thing to do during hurricane season.  Rates are discounted because people get cautious, but a cruise ship is a good place to be during a hurriance if one pops up - unlike a land-based vacation, you can actually sail around the hurricane to avoid it!  We had to do this on the first night of our cruise...other than some rough seas that first day (which according to the crew weren't really bad at all) it didn't impact us at all.

    I'm going to Aruba!  AND... Aruba is out of hurricane zone.  One of the big reasons we picked it.  We're doing an all inclusive (there are 3 I believe) but I hear that the food is amazing no matter where you are.  I just didn't want to have to budget for food & booze, so I did an AI.
    Paprika: I like it when you burp in my ear. It really turns me on.

    We went to Disney for 5 days and Jamaica for 7 days.    Loved Disney, disliked Jamaica .. the resort was great, the island was not.  The beach was amazing, but that was the extent of it - wandering off the resort property was a very scary thing to do.

    We're heading to Sandals Grand Antigua for 5 days/4 nights. I'm not sure what excursions we'll do, if any, because for the most part, we'll be relaxing for 4 days without a 2 year old running around...

    We'll *hopefully* be heading to disney/florida the following summer for a family vacation to take the kiddo. Unless of course, I'm KU. :)

     Well, looks like I'm the only non-island honeymooner here! We're headed off to upstate New York for a week. I'm a mountain lover and not as much a beach/hot weather lover. I would really love to be going to Italy, but that kind of trip is not in the budget. Should be really relaxing though! Everyone have fun on your Honeymoons!

    We're going on a week-long cruise.  Turks and Caicos and Half Moon Cay and Nassau in the Bahamas. We're riding horses on the beach and kayaking. I simply cannot wait.

    After much obsession, we decided on 5 nights on Puerto Rico for beach relaxation (at Rio Mar Wyndham) followed by a 7 night cruise of the Southern Caribbean with stops in St Marteen, St Lucia, St Croix, Antigua, and Barbados.  We didn't want to spend a ton on the honeymoon (since we're paying for the whole wedding) and I feel like I got a really great deal.  Cannot wait!
