Honeymoon!

You think that planning a wedding from start to finish would be the hardest part... Not so much.  

For us it was deciding if and where we would honeymoon.  

In fact, we didn't even BOOK our honeymoon until this week (keep in mind the wedding itself is now 29 days away!).  It was a process, especially since we had such a great relaxing vacation in August when we took a cruise to Alaska.  We had to look at everything from how long we wanted to be gone, how much we wanted to spend, and what we wanted to get for our money.

We had a BIG list of places we did not want to go (Paul had a lot to contribute, ha!).  It really narrowed our selection.  We first had decided to go to Kauai (by far the most amazing island I have ever visited) and stay on the north shore for 6 days.  Then we became undecided. Good thing we hadn't booked.  And then, mother nature decided to have a fit and there were several large earthquakes that affected Japan, also causing a tsunami.  Due to the nature of everything that has been going on in Japan, Paul thought it probably wasn't the safest time to visit Kauai, being that it is much closer to Japan.  I had to agree.  

A couple friends of ours had said that they had wanted to go to Cozumel and that it was a great deal and beautiful.  We checked it out and I would have to agree with our friends.  After looking at pictures and reading reviews online, it sounded amazing.  Considering we want to just relax on our honeymoon, but not get bored, this sounded like a great place.  Cozumel is part of Mexico, but is an island in the Caribbean.  I for one am excited to go and play in another ocean!!  We decided after much research and debate to stay at Cozumel Palace.  
I can not wait for 5 nights of all inclusive relaxation in such a beautiful place!!
