A Trip with My Honey

Mr. Lace and I love going to Disneyland together. He only lives 15 minutes away so it's an easy trip for us.  Although we would've loved getting season passes (and we were tempted to a few times), we knew it wouldn't be worth it for us.  We opted for the Costco four-pack of tickets and went at least 10 times in the first two years that we dated.   

Don't laugh.  That's one of my highest scores!

Well, we got the itch.  After going to Disneyland so many times in such a short amount of time, we started dreaming big.  We wanted to go to the Mothership -- Disneyworld.  I'd been in fourth grade with my family, but remember very little of the trip except what I saw in old photos.  Mr. Lace had never been.  We never had the chance to go.

So, when a friend asked us about where we'd honeymoon, we looked at each other and it was decided -- we were going to Disneyworld!

I was super excited. Mr. Lace was super excited.  That's all that should matter right?  Right.  Well, then, why did I want to talk less and less about our honeymoon every time anyone asked? 

Typical Conversation #1

Well-meaning friend (WMF):  So...where are you guys going on your honeymoon?

Miss Lace: We're actually going to Disneyworld!

WMF: (faking an excited smile) Oooohhh. 

Miss Lace: (awkward smile and feeling terrible)

Typical Conversation #2 - modified to adjust for WMF reaction

WMF: So...where are you guys going on your honeymoon?

Miss Lace: Well, we've always really want to go to Disneyworld.

WMF: Disneyworld? (snicker) Aren't you guys a little old for that?

Typical Conversation #3 - further modified to adjust for WMF reaction

WMF: So...where are you guys going on your honeymoon?

Miss Lace:  We really love Disneyland so we're planning on going to Disneyworld.

WMF:  Oh...is that all? Maybe you should go somewhere else too!

It's to the point where I don't really want to talk about the honeymoon with anyone even though I'm totally excited about it.  I won't even dare mention that fact that I was hoping to go to Harry Potter Land! Again, everyone is super well-meaning and suggested going on cruises, visiting Miami, flying up to New York afterwards and even driving cross country to extend our trip and visit different cities along the way.  And it's true, there are tons of trips and vacations that Mr. Lace and I hope to take someday, but for us, Disneyworld is it. It's the destination and not some stop on the way to our real honeymoon.  

Where are you going on your honeymoon? Did anyone politely dislike your honeymoon idea?
