Dream Getaways That Can Happen in A Weekend

Although 2 week vacations are awesome the trouble is that it's often so hard to get away that they rarely (if ever) happen. But why delay that trip to Paris or Buenos Aires til who-knows-when? A long weekend, which is much easier to do for most people, can be more than enough to have a fabulous time in an exotic far-off location if you do things right. Vienna, Milan, and even Sydney are realistic possibilities. Why take the chance that a trip to your dream location might never happen when you can be there later this month? 1, 2, or 3 nights is better than none at all, right? I'd say so.

I'd recommend the Holiday cruises on the Queen Mary 2 by Cunard. Just got back today on their Labor Day Cruise and had a fabulous time. Planning on going on their President's Day cruise from NY - the Bahamas which is a great Valentine's Day surprise.

I have been on a few of these and they can be relaxing. If your flights are on time they can be great. If you don't have the time, but have the money, why not do it. I have gone done south (Guatemala, Mexico, Ecuador) for most of these trips but if you have overnight flights, east and west can also be good.
