It's now the stage to finally decide on our honeymoon location.Greece is a definitely it, as I've decided long long time ago. Greece - Athens will be a 1 day stopover and off to Santorini island. Of all the famous hotspots, Mykonos, Naxos, Crete, I've always had "santorini" in my mind, since I was in high school, when I was a serious fan of new age musician-Yanni. If you had seen his spectacular performance with his crew at the Acropolis and listened to his written song "santorini", you'll decide to visit Greece once in your lifetime.
So, what else... Cliff has never been to Europe. I can feel his interests to visiting Italy, vatican city ..etc since he's always bought Dan Brown's books at first hand. Paris is another romantic city, perfect for honeymoon, but, I had just visited Paris' 08~along with Holland and germany.
Well, I'ld love to visit Salzburg, birthplace of Wolfgang Mozart, and experience a full bloom classical tour!
Deciding the honeymoon spots also means finding a balance between both of our interests. What about Spain? Spain + Greece: Santorini sounds alright, we thought. OR Italy (Rome, Florence, Venice) + Greece: (Athens + Santorini island).
As we researched lodging in Santorini, I've become quite insistent on living in a cave house + a room with a view of the Agean sea! The more Cliff researched, the more he's willing to extend a 3 day stay to a week's stay at beautiful santorini, he's even willing to give up going to Italy Rome!
Lots more prep work to do! We could have joined a group tour and leave it all to the tour guide, but, it's been fun searching for information together till past mid-night.
