Where in the world?...part dos

I last left off where we had decided that a tropical vacation was the thing for us. One would think this would narrow things down, but there are a lot of beaches in the world. First we thought about Hawaii

Beautiful, but pricey. We knew we were going to splurge on our Honeymoon, and so we still  considered it. Hawaii also, for the most part, lacks all-inclusive resorts. But in the end, it was the travel time that nixed this for us. We didn't want to spend nearly 2 days of our trip traveling.

How about Jamaica?

Jamaica was a cool option because neither of us have ever been there. Also, the resorts are all-inclusive, winning! (sorry, had to). The country is beautiful but one major drawback- the resort we liked was family friendly.

Don't get me wrong, I love kids! Ryan loves kids too. My whole life revolves around working with kids, and for this reason it was very important to me to have a resort that was adults only.

How about Mexico?

We actually had never planned on researching Mexico, but thanks to my favorite website, Long Island Weddings, we stumbled across a resort that looked absolutely perfect.

Hmm, beautiful beaches, amazing scenery, dinner on the beach, all inclusive, and basically everything else you could want to be treated like the most important couple in the world.

Here is a snapshot of what we will be seeing come July. Looking at this picture (almost) makes me want to skip the wedding and just go earlier (but not really).

So maybe it's not the trendy #1 travel destination of 2012 (not quite sure if there is one of those), but it's us, and everything we love to do.

Where is the best place you've traveled? (anyone?)
