- What else should we be thinking about / considering?
thanks
I should also mention that we are in our early 30's and are not familiar with cruises / boat trips.
I have a friend who used to work on these boats and he has told many horror stories about trips in the fall with the storms of the north sea. So unless you trust your luck or have very good stomachs, I'd suggest something completely different for your honeymoon. Really.
