Now, when most people hear what's going on, their first re

Since you have to book so far in advance, the best resorts are always full when we have these disasters foil our plans. So unfortunately, it's not as simple as just getting our money back from a hotel and booking something elsewhere. Either we go now, or we wait until the resort opens up again.
So Honeymoon Foil #1: Hurricane Norbert strikes the day we're scheduled to fly down. Our resort was booked solid until the week of May 4th. So we said ok, this sucks but we can handle it...it will just give us more time to save up and plan the trip! And we'll be there for cinco de mayo!
Fast forward 6 1/2 months...we're finally a week away from our rescheduled honeymoon!
Honeymoon Foil #2: Swine Flue. Now the resort is booked through until October 3rd. Well...looks like we'll be going just in time for our 1 year anniversary (10/4)!
We decided we'd much prefer going when we can be 100% relaxed and have absolutely zero worries for the week. Trying to get over the whole frustration of this is difficult (especially when we were in the mindset of being on vacation next week), but as Wheeler and I keep reminding ourselves, we'd much rather have a happy marriage and no honeymoon than vice-versa. Hey, if the honeymoon never gets here, it can never be over right? ;-)
In the meantime, we'll just take a 3-day weekend and do some things around SoCal that we've been wanting to do and haven't had the time/money to do yet.

Now let's just hope the 3rd time really IS a charm...
