Royal wedding: security fears hit honeymoon plans
2011-05-01
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge – the Prince and Kate Middleton's new titles – revealed they would not be immediately travelling overseas for the traditional post-wedding break, choosing instead to spend time at an undisclosed location in the UK before the Prince returns to work next week.

The sudden change, announced on Saturday, came despite aides having said consistently that the honeymoon would immediately follow the wedding, and Miss Middleton shopping for sundresses and bikinis last week.

There was speculation it may have been prompted by security concerns.

The couple were originally believed to have booked a honeymoon in Jordan, where the Duchess lived for two years as a child.

The trip was thought to have included visits to the Wadi-Rum desert and the ancient city of Petra.

#3  I heard the honeymoon was planned for the Caribbean, where the Prince had served in the Royal Navy on drug interdiction and where Mum Di had taken them as children...could be a "working vacation"????

#2  Jordan never occurred to me as a romantic honeymoon spot (unless the Prnce has similar politico-religious leanings as his father.) I would think of Bermuda or Barbados maybe.
