Weekend vacations (in the US)

[DreamGirlie]

Well the title says it all. I wanna find flight/hotel somewhere, anywhere in the US for a few hundred (not including spending money)...any ideas? Ive only been to the west coast and northeast..so i wanna do something different.

Miami, FL

There always good deals during the summer. Just avoid major holidays.

Also, since your in Boston, I would hit up Canada, either Montreal or Toronto. Plus, the exchange works slightly to your advantage.

i was gonna say miami too. nic fanciulli started a bi-monthly residency this year so your chances of seeing him together with sander are pretty good. check www.clubspace.com for more info on what dates he's playing.

Dennis Rodgers Bday party w. Alphahouse, St. Louis. 3rd Saturday in July. I'm playing a day party in some park with like 3 stages or something. Entire weekend is going to be a mess.

Other than that, i love chicago on the right weekend.

Cant beat San Francisco. Although it can be pretty expensive in the summer.

Re: Weekend vacations (in the US)

come to the outer banks of NC (if you like the beach) some beautiful unspoilt beaches, good hospitality, not too built up, and you can def find a bargain if you searh....i live in corolla in the north end of the island, it's beautiful and more remote here, and pretty close if you fly into norfolk, altho no hotels here...check out kitty hawk/nags head which is a lil further south...if you get a bunch of heads together, just rent a house for the week and do it up
my fav place in the states

Re: Weekend vacations (in the US)

OBX is great in August, and as long as you get hit by a hurrican September is even better because all the rental prices drop like a rock after labor day. I prefer Hatteras Island where it is much more rural than Nags Head/Kitty Hawk, it just takes an extra hour to get there.

I'm doing a week on the beach in Montauk next week and will try to get down to the OBX in the fall if I have time/money (yeah right )

Re: Weekend vacations (in the US)

I recommend Big Sur/Monterey/Pebble Beach area just below San Francisco....That has to be by far one of my most fav spots in the world. It's so nice and relaxing, espescially when it's overcast....and you can stop by Hearst's Castle as well and prob go through the Salinas Valley and try your hand at some fresh veggies n fruits n wine.
