Inspiration 2 June - Honeymoons and other things.

Greetings!

Grant has officially finished his 12 week challenge with Flight Centre and hasn't he done well?! He's lost:
  • 15kgs
  • 20cms from his abdomen
  • beats in his resting heart-rate
  • general sleepiness
  • some negative attitude towards exercise/activity
The first prize in the competition is $15,000 of travel with Kumuka. Apparently, $15k of travel with them is a lot of travel - check out some of their tours to Africa and the Middle East. Even though Grant's done really well, there's no guarantee he's going to win, which got me thinking about Honeymoons.

Traditionally, the Groom is supposed to organise the honeymoon, and Grant has said that he will, but I can't help thinking about it - especially if we were to get it for free! Ok. I need to stop thinking about him winning because I'm going to jinx it and then we'll get nothing :(

So, here are some honeymoon inspirations I've had over the last week or so.

Honeymoon ideas


Watching Getaway last night, and with Grant seeing some of the awesome holidays/tours there are, been thinking a bit about the honeymoon. Last night they had an awesome segment on Africa, in particular a Chobe Safari. The guy went from Botswana to Zambia over the Zambezi river - "the only place on earth where four countries meet: Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Zambia", to which Grant said something along the lines of "Suck on that Argentina! 3 countries? Africa's got 4!" ... Please allow for innacuracies in my quoting - I often pay attention to the overall sentiment rather than the actual words ;)
In terms of a honeymoon destination, I'm torn between wanting a lazy 'laxing by the beach honeymoon (preferably in an island like Samoa, or maybe even Greece ;) hehe) and an adventure honeymoon like an African Safari! In one of the segments last night, there were all these elephants fighting and playing in the water... it would be awesome to see them and lions, don't you think?

Got to love taking a "break" from work to check my RSS feeds. Just found the most gorgeous collection of luggage courtesy of Design*Sponge (see the full post here): Steamline Luggage. In particular, their Editor and Aviator series:

Preeeetty.... :D I like how they look kinda retro, '50's old school when travelling was a big deal and you'd hear of people going on their Great Tour of Europe or whatever..

Until later my lovelies.

*love love love love love*
