Need honeymoon ideas - help!

Hi ladies, ok, so I need some ideas here. Let me give you guys some background so you know why I'm having a tough time with my FI & planning a honeymoon. He won't leave the country. We are both very fair skinned and although I love the beach, he doesn't. Strike 2! We both get bored very easily. And to top it off, we don't love to fly (though at least I've got him to agree that yes, we will have to fly somewhere). So these were our ideas so far and I'd really love more suggestions since I'm not sure about these:

1) Disney World
2) Vegas (we've never been!)
3) New Orleans (could be fun?)
4) California (Los Angeles?)

Ideas, PLEASE!!! Thanks everybody I appreciate it!

I am doing one week in Disney World and one weekd on a Cruise. I have been to Disney World many times and it never gets boring. We are staying in the Polynisian which I have never stayed in. And we are also doing a package deal.

Just wanted to give you an idea.

What about flying into San Francisco, then rent a car and drive down the coast to San Diego. You can stop at wineries and stay at either B&B or spas along the way!

Vegas is great, but too hectic for a HM in my opinion. If you really want to go, then stop there on the way back from CA!

why don't you drive dwn to north carolina and south carolina and go to all the bed and breakfasts and plantations.

I know a couple of people who did this and they said it was great...

We're going to California Wine Country, staying in Sonoma County which is about an hour north of San Francisco. I'm not good on airplanes either, so this is even a stretch for me, but I'll just take some Valium and hopefully pass out for the whole flight!

Both my FH and I are 'doers', too... we like to see as much as we can and fit lots of activities into our vacation. So with where we're going, we can visit vineyards, spend a day in San Fran, go see the Redwood Forest, and lots of other things down the road! We'll be there in 33 days, if you can hold out until September I'll let you know how it was!!

Good luck,
Jill

How about a retro honeymoon? Poconos? Niagra Falls (is your FH okay with Canada)? I know these places sound like places our parents went, but I think they can still be fun. I just went to Niagra Falls two weeks ago and it was really fun.
