Honeymoon # 2

We will spend 2 nights in San Francisco, staying at The Handlery in Union Square; which happens to be right next to Saks! While we're there we hope to visit Alcatraz, see the Golden Gate Bridge, sample some fish at Fisherman's Wharf and experience the Californian way of life. It will be the first time either of us have been to the States, so we're really excited.


We then fly out to Honolulu. We will be staying in at the New Otani Kaimana on Waikiki Beach on Oahu for 7 nights. We're told Waikiki has everything, so we hope to have a varied week going on various excursions, including a visit to Pearl Harbor.

We will then take the "hopper" over to Kauai, where we will be staying at the Resort Quest Islander, which is situated beside a coconut plantation for a further 7 nights. We're told Kauai is much quieter, so we will be looking forward to a week of relaxation on the beach, as well as exploring the local area.

We will have a couple of days together after getting back home, to get over the jet lag and to do all the laundry before heading back to work!

Honeymoon # 1

Immediately after the wedding, we will be taking a few days out to go to Bath in Wiltshire. My dad has a holiday house there, and he's letting us stay there for a few days before we head back to work.

Our official honeymoon doesn't start until late August 2009. We booked with Thomas Cook, who were absolutely incredible, and I highly recommend them. We always wanted our honeymoon to be the most incredible trip, to the most incredible location; and we've found it! We will be going to San Francisco and Hawaii. The quote for the honeymoon surprised us both; coming in UNDER budget, and what's more; it was a twin centre holiday, staying in both Oahu and Kauai, with an amazing stop-off in San Francisco. The advisor was so helpful, and she put in so many hours finding flights and hotels for us.
