I've been to Brussels, Antwerp and Amsterdam before and I loved them all. I loved Amsterdam the most though.

Now you just someone willing to marry you. :D

Heh, sorry, but I couldn't resist.

oh yeah... I am especially excited about Bruges too

Amsterdam's amazing, as you know; and for Brussels i'd say avoid driving there if you can cos its hell

bar that i have no advice... good luck and i hope you enjoy yourselves! :)

Now you just someone willing to marry you. :D

Heh, sorry, but I couldn't resist.


lol - that would be the ideal situation. :p

Actually I keep telling my woman that she must be insane and I keep giving her an opening to leave me while she still has the chance. She seems intelligent so this is quite out of character for her.

I love all the leisure time we get!

I've been to Brussels, Antwerp and Amsterdam before and I loved them all. I loved Amsterdam the most though.

My honeymoon was in Longboat Key, Florida. It was beautiful there. Every time I opened the balcony doors to let the steam out, We were stunned by the view. And that made us horny again...and the doors closed and... well, it was a vicious cycle. Suffice to say, we really had no opportunity to sightsee.

Your schedule sounds exciting, but (and this is meant as constructive criticism) I wonder if you are keeping in mind the true purpose of a honeymoon; To boink like horny otters.

I'd suggest you make triple certain there is enough time in that rather busy looking itinerary for plenty of ...you know. ;)

Amsterdam's amazing, as you know; and for Brussels i'd say avoid driving there if you can cos its hell

bar that i have no advice... good luck and i hope you enjoy yourselves! :)

I don't think we will even be renting a car in any of the places we go. I don't think we'll need to, public transport is awesome out there everywhere I went. And I covered a lot of ground on foot in Amsterdam.

There is a lot of free time for us. It sounds like it's all tours and sightseeing but it isn't really. But the boinkign like horny otters thing is done daily anyway so we get plenty of chances to do that... we don't get many chances to travel.

On that note we were talking and thought it might be a good idea to stop having sex for 1 or 2 months before the wedding for some reason, and at the time it seemed like it might be an exciting thing to do. Although later we were like "what the hell were we thinking coming up with a crazy plan like that?"

What do you guys think about such a thing?

cripe....can I come along on the honeymoon? sounds fantastic!

Sure, if you don't mind sharing the bed with us.

Woo! Never did that on my honeymoon! :)

Woo! Never did that on my honeymoon! :)

no deal - you gotta share the bed with us if you want to go :p

Take your time packing because it's not until late April.

The picture taking thing is not so much a problem because I don't want to ruin any pictures by having my ugly mug in it.

That's the spirit!

My wife and I did that---makes the wedding night all the crazier! Go for it!:D

I'm glad somebody commented on that.

How long did you go without and did you both also refrain from... er... um... taking care of business on your own as well during that time?

I vote no on that idea. Because it ends up lasting about 52 seconds when you finally resume activity.

But you can only perform oral sex for about 3 weeks and then on the honeymoon you will probably achieve the desired effect that seems like would happen if you abstained for a month. Oral for a month, no penetration, then have a blast on the honeymoon.

I booked my honeymoon for late April and was wondering if anyone that is familiar with the places I am visiting have any recommendations.

< snip extensive itenerary >

Kewl, doood! Sounds like a fantastic trip. I hope you have a great time. :)

Um ... are you sure it's a good idea to be posting your complete itenerary all over the Internet? Just wondering.

I like your plan!

At first we were like 6 months of no sex, then we said hell no! lets try 3. Then we were like flurk that and thought a month might be better. Then we figured out that we have no will power and would end up saying - let's just abstain for a day and still end up doing it in the limo on the way to the Arboretum (the place we are getting married)

something about the absence of actual intercourse, but still physically pleasuring each other orally can make the next episode of intercourse extremely intense, yet you both last for more than a few seconds. talk it over and maybe its the way to go.


my god....you must be contagious. now see what youve done.

Nice honeymoon trip :) The Netherlands are a great choice, Belgium and Luxembourg are even better. And I can know that, since I'm from that area (I'm dutch) :D And since it's late april, be sure to be in a major dutch town on the 30th of april, it's Queens day then :D

Do you have any questions about certain things, I'm quite sure I can help a little bit out hopefully?

I'll mention it to her and see what she thinks. She seems to be more against abstaining than not lately so she will prolly like the idea.

I'd like to get a first hand look at what I have done :p

What's Queens Day and what goes on during Queens day?

you'll see. i am coming along on the trip;)

We celebrate the birthday of our Queen (actually our former Queen, but we don't care). There are lots of festivities then and everywhere you go people will wear orange clothes. Especially the bigger cities will have lots of festivities. Also the Queen(and her family) will visit one or two towns/villages which will also have lots of stuff to do. In other words, one major open air party almost everywhere :D The parties actually start the night before because many people don't have to go to work the next morning anyway.

Edit: There is also Liberation Day on the 5th of May: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevrijdingsdag

you'll see. i am coming along on the trip;)


I'll have to post a photo essay of my trip on some adult forum somewhere then. :D

Oh ok thanks for the explanation. I'll be in Amsterdam on the 30th as well as the next day so it looks like I will be partying all night with you marvelous dutch people! I'll bring some orange (don't own any I'll need to buy something) to wear to fit in :p

is there some sort of dutch saying I can master that goes with the Queens day? Like - Happy Birthday Your Majesty or something?

Yes, there are:

"(Lang) leve de Koningin" - (long) live the Queen
"Oranje boven" - literally: Orange up

Ask some dutchie on your trip for the pronounciation :) Or find it somewhere on the internet.

Thanks!!!!!!!!

And well I never said the departure date as there are several near the end of April.
Ahh! Shrewd. Very shrewd! :D

awesome! will i be able to use Euros in all three of those countries?

I heard there are travellers checks like things but in credit card form... anyone ever heard of those? would that be the preferable thing to do when carrying large cash amounts?

Ahh! Shrewd. Very shrewd! :D

:cool:

but anyway it's not like anyone could give a shit less about me. so I don't think I need to worry about someone stalking me or wanting to con me (with the number of tourists there, I'm sure there are thousands of better targets)... I'm too poor to get any money out of. Although there may be some posters that would like to hurt me. Then again, I may be in a kinky enough mood to like it. :D

I love all the leisure time we get!

Dont worry about seeing those places, hit that man, hit that all night long!

Dont worry about seeing those places, hit that man, hit that all night long!

But I get to and have been doing that every night for four years now.

I don't get to travel to other countries but once every 5 or more years. Besides that will be going on every night regardless. The trip is mostly leisure time to do what we want with very few tour guidey like stuff.

Well crap! Not enough people signed up for the tour on teh date we wanted to go so we had to pick a different tour that was the next closest date (not it's two weeks after our wedding rather than one).

Now our honeymoon is London, Amsterdam and Paris. I'm not all that interested in Paris but it makes my woman happy so thats the plan.

I get married this coming Saturday! w00t!

I wanted to share a couple of pics because I like to brag about my wife and our wedding:

We haven't gotten all the pics back yet but I think these are a good representative sample.

We leave for Europe tomorrow! weeeeeeeeeeee

wow those are beautiful pictures!

you make a beautiful couple too. congratulations!

have a great time on your honeymoon. as if there is a chance you wont.

Have fun!
And for the part of the Netherlands: Skip Volendam, it's boring as hell.

Thanks! I loved the place we got married. As you can see we liked it natural and casual. Many people told us that it was the most beautiful and relaxing weddings they've ever been to. SO that made us happy.

Have fun!
And for the part of the Netherlands: Skip Volendam, it's boring as hell.

Thanks!

Actually we're going to London, Amsterdam and Paris now. The other trip fell thru. OH well I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Wow, great that you visit the Netherlands! I live there so...

If you're stuck or something, you know who to call! :D

Wow - the place you got married is gorgeous! Where was it?

Many congratulations and I hope you have a wonderful honeymoon and life together! :) :fluffle:

Congratulations, enjoy your honeymoon!

I agree-the brief glimpse those pics give us show a very casual and comfortable good time. Beats a tight tux in a hot church anyday. My next wedding will be on the beach, in the surf. I'm just waiting for my next wife to be born.

C'mon-I should be able to see some "soiled bride" shots.

Have a great trip my friend !

Yes, thats exactly what I was goign for. I wanted everyone to relax and have a good time. There were many sighs of relief when I told them not to dress up and come casual and comfortable.

We had no wedding party or anything like that.

Her dad put it best "simple but meaningful"

We were first talkign about the beach but every place we found on the beach was way to expensive.

Maybe I'll share the naughty pics with blanked out naughty parts just to be evil.

Thanks again.

Remember-if you're doing things right, your "naughty part" should almost never be visible. :p

We leave tomorrow! WHen you come save us, please wear a super hero outfit.

Well, have a nice trip! I'll try to find a super hero outfit, but I think I'll wear a white shirt with NS Members/Newly Weds in Trouble Help ;)

You could become the resident saver of the day for all NS'ers that travel to the Netherlands. Perhaps we should build a giant lamp to shine a symbol (the NS all seeing EYE) on the clouds for you.

Oh and I am not sure which Airline it is... our travel agent booked it and I didn't pay attention. If I werent at work I'd look at the tickets.

Well, it's probably KLM or their American partner North-West Airlines.

Yeah, we could that...

Actually a nice idea! Make a new thread in which people can offer help to the tourists among us. Would be nice :fluffle:

De Haar Castle
Maastricht
Bastogne

Orval
Dinant
MonsBruges

*snip*

Day 3 - Amsterdam sightseeing & at leisure First highlight is a canal cruise in a glass-topped boat. Next, a visit to one of the city's diamond-cutting factories. Then, with a local guide, we visit the Rijksmuseum before a sightseeing stour. Later, an excursion to Volendam with a cheese and clog-making demonstration. Tonight, a dinner of Indonesian specialities. (Buffet Breakfast / Highlight Dinner)

You're doing all of that in one day? Blood-y hell!

On another note, Bruges is a very lovely town. Make sure you sample plenty of the Belgian brews. I particularly liked the dubbels & tripels.

I had to take pictures of the names on the side of some of the buses in France!

Welcome back, Sumamba!

Hope all went well and you had a great honeymoon.

The honeymoon doesnt have to end, just because you're back home.
Keep romancing the little lady and do unexpected nice things for her.

The payoffs are tremendous.

Thanks! It was marvelous. I have a link to my ladys livejournal where she wrote about what we did (but not at length - just a quick overview) if anyone cares to read it. Pictures are much more fun.

I've been back since Sunday but the Honeymoon sure hasn't ended. I always put my woman up on a pedastle and do what I can to make her happy.

Seriously, congradulations on getting married. From the pictures, it looks like you must have had a great trip! (Brussels is underrated as far as I'm concerned, but then I have relatives there...) anyway, congrats.

Thanks! Europe is so beautiful. I miss it. I'm ready to go back ASAP. THe only thing I missed here at home was my cat. Coming back and looking at the buildings and parks here is so dissapointing after having been in Europe for a couple weeks.

glad to share

I'd share pics of many of the adverts on teh streets of Paris, France that were of topless women (or completely naked) and such (for educational purposes only so that we may learn of cultural differences) but I think it might get me banned. Oh well.

Glad you enjoyed the pics


There were about 300 of them but many were redundant or too risque for people (some of them as wella s this board) we are allowing to view, plus it was takign forever to upload them all so we shared about 70ish only.

And explain in detail, as well, I'm sure...

Really? Hmmm... Out of respect for PM, I am not even going to think unpure thoughts of you.

You naughty, naughty girl.

Nope. Just pure thoughts. Not even contemplating the manipulation of your smooth,sweet-scented flesh. No thoughts of chasing and catching....



:D


All kidding aside- I'm glad you're a good sport with a good sense of humor.
You're one of the few that brings some fun in here.

yeah-we're comparing you to a very rich and delicious -sticky sweet- dessert, where you have to lick everything clean when you're done.

If you're even able to finish...it.
