Other Weekend or Day Trip Ideas

 

A less expensive but nonetheless special getaway would be to a bed and breakfast in the country for the weekend. 

 

There are many such locations throughout the United States in the Northeast, Atlantic Coast, and Pacific Coast, and even in the middle of the country. 

 

Just go to your computer and use your search engine to find bed and breakfast locations in certain states or areas of the country and then investigate what there is to do in those areas. 

 

If your partner enjoys hikes and horseback riding, pick a place that has that kind of activities.  If you just want a cozy weekend alone, pick a cabin in the woods, far from cell phones and TV sets. 

 

Again, you want to think about what your partner likes and how the two of you will spend your time while you are away.

 

Rent a sailboat if you are near the water, or a paddleboat for something more old-fashioned and simple. 

 

Ø      If your partner likes to be with other people and do things with groups, you might choose a city tour instead of a country bed and breakfast. 

 

Take the double-decker bus around New York city to see where ‘Seinfeld’ locations were filmed, or go to the theater or the opera, or go dancing in one of the many clubs. 

 

Ø      OR, go to San Francisco and look out over the bay, climb or drive the hills and windy roads and view the grand old houses on Nob Hill. 

 

Ø      Perhaps Boston with its historic walking tours and magnificent Charles River crew boats is more up your alley. 

 

Ø      Or maybe you’d like to go listen to the Blues in Chicago and walk along the water and eat great food. 

 

Ø      Go to Memphis and visit the home of Elvis Presley and listen to great music and drink great home brewed beer. 

 

It’s all up to you and it is all according to what your partner might like.
