We were living in the CA Bay Area, and drove down to Monterey, where my uncle had gotten us a family discount at a medium-quality hotel. We had 3 days there, it was very nice. (We were penniless, and did the whole wedding and honeymoon for under $1000.)

Well, talking to the missus last night I think we’ve decided on Savannah after Thanksgiving and before Christmas. The whitewater rafting we are going to try at a later point.

Thanks for all the help - keep your honeymoon stories coming!

This won’t work for two different reasons - bux and time of year - but I’ll post it anyway. We did 4 days in Sydney, 3 days on [Heron Island](http://www.heronisland.com/) on the Great Barrier Reef, spent 4 days in [Tasmania](http://www.cradlemountainlodge.com.au/) , then drove both islands of New Zealand over the last 9 days of the trip.

We’ll never have an opportunity like that again.

We went to [Williamsburg, VA](http://gowilliamsburg.com/) for a week for our honeymoon. For our first anniversary, we did a 3 day weekend in [St. Augustine, FL](http://www.oldcity.com/). We haven’t gone anywhere else for anniversaries due to my husband’s job. We are looking at [Kennedy Space Center](http://www.nasa.gov/centers/kennedy/home/index.html) when we get a chance. We would like to do an [Alaskan cruise](http://www.alaskatravel.com/alaska-cruises/) for our 10 year anniversary in 2012.

We pick “different” spots, but they are always enjoyable.
