BIGGGGGGG CHECK!!!!!!!!!

We just booked part of our honeymoon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are going to the French Polynesian islands for a 10-night cruise on the Paul Gauguin cruise!!!!!!! It's a small luxury cruise that only holds about 300-350 people. It's very different than typical cruises and it's an intimate ship, which is perfect for a honeymoon. Our cruise leaves from Tahiti and goes to Moorea, Bora Bora, Tahaa, and a couple of other islands as well! We can't wait!! Here is the link to the Paul Gauguin website: Paul Gauguin cruise

Sooo, so far we booked the cruise, and we plan on doing a 2-3 day pre-cruise stay in an overwater bungalow!!!! But our TA said that we will wait to book the hotel until the flight schedule comes out, which will be in the summer. FH and I are soooooooooooooooo excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is an expensive trip, but a trip to French Polynesia usually always is! But it is soooo worth it!! FH and I want to have a 'once in a lifetime' type of honeymoon because we have gone on vacation together numerous times and want something really unique and different from what we have already done. The great thing about this cruise is that allllll food and drinks (including alcohol) are included (which I have read is delish!!!) so it really helps with keeping additional costs once you're actually on the honeymoon down. I have read that food and drinks in French Polynesia tend to be extremely expensive, so it's nice not to have to worry about it (except during our pre-cruise stay )!!

WOW Congrats!!! That overwater bungalow sounds awesome!!

omg I am jealous! I heard it is so nice there!!!! My friend stayed at one of those overwater bungalows and brought back pics.. its soo cool!
