We went to the Greek Islands for our honeymoon (posts to come, super sorry!!!), a destination which was solely my choice, so it was only appropriate that the husband picked out our big summer trip this year, which is also our one-year-anniversary trip.
Hawaii, specifically KAUAI and MAUI.
That was an easy choice for him; I must have trained him well 😉
So we’re off to Kauai and Maui for a few glorious weeks in the summer. Â This cannot come soon enough.
Here’s a few highlights of how we’re planning on spending our days in Hawaii.
RELAX on the gorgeous Hawaiian beaches.
See the sunrise above Haleakala.
Go snorkeling. Â Many times.
Take a helicopter ride above the Na Pali coast
But before Hawaii, I’ll most likely spend a long weekend visiting a friend in Washington D.C. Â I can’t wait to see her and explore. Â Free museums, awesome architecture. Â And hoping some cherry blossoms are still out in May!

And here’s where you come in.  I have a $300 travel voucher from Delta, which I got when our original flight to Athens was cancelled.  I need to book it by June, and am at a loss of where to go.  Something super affordable from NY, and probably travel in July after Hawaii?  It’s basically the only time off I have from work…  Where should I go in July?!?!  Any suggestions would be helpful!
We have a wedding in Montauk, NY in the fall, so we’ll most likely be spending a long weekend out there. Â Possibly some lobster eating and sand castle building.
After this frigid weather in NY this winter, we ultimately decided that a getaway in December is necessary. Â We’re thinking of either Riviera Maya Mexico, or Costa Rica. Â I’ve always wanted to go to Costa Rica, so we may end up going there, although everything is obviously up for discussion. Â Cuddling a sloth and prancing around in the rainforest seems like way too much fun.
