Happy Monday, y'all! I hope you had a great weekend getting in the Christmas spirit. If you read my post from Friday, you know that I vaguely mentioned Kyle and I were planning something. Well, that something is a Graduation Trip! (Sorry if it got you excited about a pregnancy announcement. We've still got a few years to go on that one!). Since Kyle and I both didn't take a high school or college graduation trip, we figured a post PT School trip would be our last chance to celebrate a milestone before we had kids. So we are hoping to plan BIG, y'all. Like Europe big (we've both never been). But unless one of those travel deal sites comes through for us, my Europe dreams will probably be crushed. So you can bet I've done my fair share of stalking the likes of Groupon, Living Social, and Travel Zoo nearly everyday, but they have yet to come out with a deal for a European destination past March 2013. So if we can't make Europe happen, here are the domestic alternatives we're considering:
California: We're thinking about hitting up LA and San Diego, then driving up the Pacific Coast Highway to San Francisco. Between the two of us, Utah is the farthest West we've ever been, so I think we're both due for a visit to the West Coast.
The other option we're thinking about is Yellowstone. My feelings toward this are kind of meh, but I do think it would be neat to see all the national landmarks and beautiful scenery in this area of the country.
So in the meantime, if y'all know of any good sites that offer travel deals like Groupon Getaways or Living Social Escapes, please please send them our way! Or if you've planned a big graduation trip before and have lots of advice to share, we are all ears. As thanks I will make you a batch of my red velvet cookies and promise to take lots of pretty pictures of wherever we end up going (how's that for motivation?)! ;)
WOW!!! So cool! I think Sam's going to get a Graduation dinner as celebration! Your's sounds way more awesome! Hopeful that some crazy awesome deal falls into your lap soon because Europe would be amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks girl! We are thinking maybe the spring Europe deals won't start coming out until January/February, so we'll see!
DeleteWe have a lot of friends who have rented cars and done a Castle B&B hop through Ireland. Crazy cheap (as far as European travel goes) and you set your own itinerary!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to do that, and I've found several Ireland deals that would be absolutely amazing. But for some reason Kyle doesn't want to go there. Party pooper!
DeleteI may be a little biased, but Cali is pretty awesome :)
