Vacation Destinations

Do you know how many exotic and exciting places there are to visit in the world? Well, wherever your Spring Break may take you, I do have some hot spots I favor that you might want to check out.
  1. Carnival Cruise- Is there ever a better time than in the lush spring? As far as vay-cays go, this is way down on the spending scale and way up on quality. Entertainment, refreshments, fun, and so much more. The ships are exquisite and never ending. Not to mention WAY popular. (To prove it- It took me and my friend who had flown from AUSTRALIA about 10 minutes to run the length of the ship twice at full speed. How's that for never ending?) And BONUS- They recently set up a port in Seattle! They're everywhere!
  2. Victoria, BC- It might not sound like much and you would probably pick Vancouver over it if you hadnt been to either place, but I personally LOVE Victoria. It is an awesome (and surprisingly close- you take a special ferry from Seattle and you're there in 2 hours) city with beautiful sights. Many hotels are right next to ski jumps and they make the most out of you visit. Also, its a prefect destination for anyone, any time. In the winter, skiers can hit the slopes and at the bottom is a farmers market with authentic canadian murchandise. And, for all those cross country bikers, when the snow melts in the summer, they use the slopes for a mountain bike terrain with wild twists and jumps. Well, at least that was my experience.
  3. Southwestern Florida: It is just downright beautiful. All the palm trees and sandy white beaches- breathtaking. Go in the fall or spring- never the summer. WAY too hot. And there is literally a mini golf course every 5 miles. It's right on the Gulf of Mexico, and, though the water might be chilly, it is an ideal vay-cay for someone who is tired of rain and cold air. (The air is so humidly fresh there it has a distinct smell)
  4. DISNEYWORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do i even need to explain this? Or would you rather me shove you down an elevator shaft like they do in Hollywood's Tower of Terror? You tell me. ;)

Whichever you choose, I hope you have fun!
