Honeymoon in Paradise!

I was answering someone's question about what my husband and I did for our honeymoon 26 years ago, and I thought to myself that the full particulars might make a good post! We flew down to Miami and boarded a Royal Caribbean Honeymooners cruise - no noisy children! We had a stateroom with a porthole facing the outside, so we had a magnificent view the whole time. We would spend our days out on excursions to the different ports of call -- Haiti and some other small Caribbean islands, Jamaica, and Mexico. Then at night, we would do some fine dining, so fancy that one of the three waiters at our table would fluff your napkin out on your lap! After supper, we would catch the off-Broadway-type entertainment in the lounge (always excellent) and then go back to our stateroom. We had such a fun time and have talked for 26 years about doing it again when we retire. This post is already too long, so I'll tell you about my nightie hilarity in part 2!

I am glad you enjoyed your honeymoon cruise. We also went on a cruise, but my husband did not like too much.

@gtdoss No, my husband does not suffer sea sickness, but he got very bored, he did not particularly enjoyed the life on the ship.

Did your husband have sea sickness? I did for a couple hours of the whole cruise, but it was very mild.

What great memories. My husband and I just went to the next town down the road from our town for our honeymoon.

We were both in our 30s when we got married, so we had a little money saved up for a cruise, which we had both really wanted to experience.

I never thought I would enjoy a cruise, but we have a second one booked for next month. Your honeymoon sounds like it was perfect!

That is so true! Like I said, 26 years later and we still think about it.
