Daydreaming - The Honeymoon

Lately I've found myself daydreaming about our honeymoon - it's still a year away, but I'm guessing that time is going to fly by.  Originally Jeff and I were talking about doing something really relaxing and going to Hawaii or the Caribbean.  But then we were talking about it more, and thought that we might be missing an opportunity to take another big trip.  After all, when else will our employers be so generous with giving us time off, and when else will we have the means and lack of obligations to really go away?  The trip we took to Spain and Morocco last year was the first time I'd been outside of North America, and  now I'm really getting the itch to see some more of the world.  Here are some of my top picks:


South Africa - I'm not sure if I mentioned it on here, but before we were originally supposed to go to Zimbabwe and South Africa last fall instead of Spain and Morocco.  Our trip was amazing, but I'm still dying to go on safari and see the amazing scenery.  The vineyards around Cape Town don't sound too bad either :)


Italy and Croatia - Sure, Italy's on everyone's hot spot list.  I'm sure I don't have to tell you about the culture or the food or the sights.  But Croatia may not be on your radar - it has a stunning Mediterranean coastline said to rival Italy and Greece, and is much less touristy than other places in Europe.  Not to mention that I'm part Croatian and would love the chance to explore my roots.


Southeast Asia - This trip has been in talks since about 2009 when my brother first lived in South Korea.  He moved back there last summer with his new wifey, and this time I have to make it out to visit him.  While we're on basically the other side of the world, I'd also love to hit China and then head further south to check out the beaches in Vietnam and Thailand and maybe float down the Nam Song in Laos.

Where are you dreaming of visiting?  Are any of my top picks on your dream list?
