honeymoon

If you was planning your honeymoon. Which country would you visit?
Which country is considered the most romantic country in the world?
For me its Italy Biggrin

sorry to spoil this topic, but do you know the origins of honeymooning? Its very far from romantic.

I can spill the beans if you like...

but travelling wise every country has its uniqueness, so it really depends on what your interests are... and wether you can get halaal food.

go on tell, i aint heard it before!

The most romantic place is considered to be paris

It goes all the way back to medieval times, and the practice of kidnapping women and forcing them to marry you.

The honeymoon period was to lay low, hoping by the time you go back, the woman you kidnapped and married is pregnant, so that the girls family will have to spare you. Now the pregnant girl was in no position to leave the husband either.

very romantic indeed.

lol judging by the glare my father in law gave me at my wifes birthday party recently you would think I've done just that ^

...our honeymoon is still up in the air, probably changing it to Jerusalem for sometime over the summer.

Lots of fighting resulted in that one - I still have the distinct feeling I've been tricked.

lol, You'll find out when you no longer have an option to put up any resistance.

Just don't frett. No point in it, as you'll just worry about something you cannot change.

Oh I'm not terribly concerned. She's been very good at this game for a long time - we've got an understanding. As long as there is no direct confrontation with my manly authoritarian stands on certain thing, and she sticks to behind the scenes manipulation everything is A-Okay.

lol. That seems to be the norm in society anyway.

The word honeymoon dates back to the 16th century:

"The first month after marriage, when there is nothing but tenderness and pleasure" (Samuel Johnson)

Ramz have you been to Italy before?

lol so two third world countries then. I can't stand paris... Italy is great - so long as you don't fall into the water at Venice (it's worse than the Thames) and are prepared to eat some pretty weird stuff.

Are you married now or still doing the meat market?

I'm still fighting off the desi free loaders in the meat market.

It's nice way of starting a life with your partner, many blessings to be achieved and prayers to be made for a successful marriage/future. You get to visit the blessed grave of the Holy Prophet (saw), what can be better than that....
