So, the honeymoon plans have been made, (and along with them, most of my wedding responsibilities are fulfilled. I LOVE being male.)
It's a week-long cruise on the S.V. Yankee Clipper, sailing out of Grenada. It's a Windjammer Cruise, so instead of a behemoth of a floating hotel/casino like you normally get, it's a smaller sailing ship, that doesn't put you ten stories over the ocean.
Why take a cruise if you can barely tell you're on the water unless someone tells you? Besides, a ship this size and style == fewer people. I like that already.
Oh, and just because someone would think otherwise, no, I will not be bringing my laptop. There is no way in hell i'll be doing anything on my honeymoon that needs a computer.

Excellent choice! I have been on these cruises and it is a lot of fun; you really get a feel for the nautical aspect of things. Nothing like laying back on the desk of the ship at night looking up at the stars and hearing the crack of the wind in the sails.

Cool! I'd only ever been on day cruises to Nassau or personal boats, and Mel's never been on a cruise, so this is kind of a first for both of us, and I figured that the cruise should be a little more than a conveyance from point to point. Besides, she's a big-time "Pirates of the Carribean" fan, so a sailing ship works well for her.

Actually, I can think of quite a few things we could do that could involve a computer. But I'm sure you'd complain that they were "uncomfortable" and, as brilliant as they are, I'm not sure that Apple's Genius Bar would know what to do with a lube coated laptop...
:D

I think YOU'D be complaining about "uncomfortable". I'd just be wondering how I'd ever explain THAT iChat Video to people.

Enjoy, sir. I wish I could have taken the wife on such an excursion, but she spent much of a whale-watching tour in Provincetown indisposed. Neither of us is eager to repeat that experience, but I still wish I could somehow immunize her from her own physiology.
