We're a little late on having our honeymoon but have lots of time to plan it.
Last April (2012), my then DFi was diagnosed with cancer and needed chemo-radiation plus surgery. A week later, I had a stroke and was hospitalized for two weeks. We missed our original wedding day while I was in the hospital but had a two-day window between when I got out of the hospital and before she started chemo. So, we got married! Clearly, neither of us was in any condition to have a honeymoon.
They say that when you're recovering from a major illness, it's important to focus on a future fun event. So, we've been focusing on having our delayed honeymoon just prior to our first anniversary. We should both be reasonably healthy by then.
We're booked for 4 nights in one of the honeymoon rooms in WL. (I understand that all four honeymoon rooms at WL are in CL and are on the top floor). After that, we're moving GL for 5 nights in CL. Our last day at WDW will be our first anniversary.
We've purchased a 7-day pass with both park-hopper and water-parks. We plan to attend whichever park has EMH in the morning or a water-park then retire to our room around noon. Depending on how ambitious we're feeling that day, we can head to another park, go mini-golfing, or just hang around our resort. Since we have no idea what our health will be, we decided to leave our options open. With all CL rooms, we're hoping to get the pampering we sorely need. With a 7-day pass, we can find plenty to do if we decide to.
Where else but WDW can know that you'll have a fun, memorable honeymoon without knowing how healthy you'll be??
BTW: We've been to WDW twice together and several times each before we met. So, we've got a pretty good idea of what will be available. I've been to the other parks (California, Tokyo, Paris but not yet HK).
