Honeymoon

Wishlist

Help us create our dream wedding and honeymoon experience with any amount of donation!

• “Leonardo Express” tickets

  Take us on our first land adventure into Rome from the Fiumicino airport! This will be our first adventure on public transport on our voyage!

• Dinner in Rome

  We will be arriving in Rome the evening before our cruise and will need to (of course!) sample the local cuisine! Will it be cacio e pepe? Carbonara? Amatriciana? We can't wait!!!!

• Coffee in Rome

  Did you know that Italians generally order their coffee at the coffee bar and drink it STANDING? Stay tuned as we figure out this and more customs surrounding one of our favorite things!

• Train tickets to the cruise port of Civitavecchia

  After we spend an evening and an early morning sipping coffee and making kissy face in Rome, we’ll head to the cruise port of Civitavecchia to board our cruise ship, the Norwegian Epic.

• Audio-guided visit to the Pantheon

  We are going to explore the best-preserved ancient roman building in Rome! Help to know all the secrets by using a translation-app style audio guide and ticket!

• Pizza - OF COURSE!

  When in Naples - - - We'll be grabbing slices or pies or BOTH from the birthplace of modern pizza!

• A visit to the Royal Palace of Naples

  The Royal Palace of Naples was the seat of monarchical power for three centuries! We'll be checking out the hall of gardens, the staircase of Honour, and all of the Roman, Spanish, & Austrian history!

• Sfogliatelle and other fun pastries!

  After watching hours of videos on Naples - Kristin became OBSESSED with sfogliatelle- a pastry which is a symbol of Naples! Your donation may save Jose from 3 hours of "did we find one yet?"

• Transportation around Barcelona

  There are so many places we want to see in Barcelona - and a short time in which to do it all! We are going to use transport as much as possible while we are there!

• Parc Guell

  We are super psyched to tour Parc Guell, covered with architecture by Antoni Gaudi and maintained as one of the largest open garden spaces in Spain.

• Fun money at Raima

  We found Raima watching videos of Barcelona - the tour guides were touting the bar on the rooftop of Raima but we looked it up and found Raima is the largest stationery store in Europe! Four Stories!

• Lunch in Barcelona

  Barcelona has so much potential for great food! From Bombas to croquettas and Paella to Spanish sausages and Manchego - -HOW WILL WE CHOOSE?

• Marche Forville (Provencal market)

  Does produce taste different in France? We'll find out and tell you! Marche Forville is Cannes' most loved market. We are looking forward to strolling through and sampling the selections!

• Petit Train de Cannes

  A fun way to adventure through Cannes to visit Le Suquet, the Chateau de la Castre and the Rue d'Antibes. We'll also be in Cannes during the film festival, so we may have some celebrity sightings!

• Browsing in Cannes

  La Croisette and Rue d'Antibes are known for haute couture in the French Riviera as 'the' places to shop. But there are tons of tea salons and small boutiques throughout....what will we find?

• French Cafe date

  You know...there are pastries in FRANCE too....we should probably do some quality checks there as well!

• Train from Livorno to Pisa

  Just a quick jaunt by rail gets us to the city of Pisa, where we can check out the leaning tower and Piazza dei Miracoli

• Tuscan lunch date

  Ribollita? Cantuccini? Cannoli? Yes PLEASE! Tuscany will not be complete without a food stop!

• Florence 'window treatment'

  Wine windows evolved in Florence in the 16th century as a way to safely serve wine to customers during the Black Death. We can get wine (or gelato!) from one of these awesome places!!!!

• Pisa monuments tour

  Sliiide to the left! Sliiiide to the right! It's time to visit not only the leaning tower, but the beautiful Cathedral, and the Opera del Duomo Museum!

• WiFi for the cause!

  Our cruise ship offers Wi-Fi passes to help with booking tickets and managing plans (and sending awesome pics to our website!).

• Spontaneous gelato!

  Random and spontaneous acts of gelato may occur at any time!

• Room at the Inn

  We'll be looking for a room in Rome for the night before our cruise sets sail!

• Flapping our wings!

  We have a long flight from Orlando to Rome! Help us flap our wings!

• Passports

  Kristin has never had a passport (GASP!) and Jose will be renewing his before our grand adventure!
