Life has a way of just bringing you down. It is hard to stay positive with a smile on your face all the time when you are handling work, family, and all of those little things that make your life so complicated. But with all that in mind, it can be difficult to schedule a vacation for a week and take a rest from everything that is weighing so heavily on you. However, you can always just take a weekend getaway someplace close to you where you don’t even need to jump on a plane. Listed below are some ideas for quick and instant getaways that you can put to good use this weekend.
Camping in the Wilderness
Is there a more peaceful image than sleeping underneath the stars at night with animal sounds off in the distance? For many of us, the answer would be no. For some of us, it would be the last place you would ever choose to take a vacation. To each their own. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, the woods and a camping trip is the perfect place to make this happen. Plus, it is just about an inexpensive vacation as you will come across.
At Home Without the Kids
It is amazing how much quieter the house is when all the kids are gone. And of course you miss them when they are not around, but if they don’t disappear for a bit, then you never get the chance to miss them in the first place. Have the kids stay with the grandparents or an aunt and uncle for the weekend. Turn your home into your quiet sanctuary and catch up on all of those movies on Netflix you have been talking about watching for the last two years.
Stay the Weekend in a Local Hotel
There
is a very good chance that you have not ever spent a night in the local hotel.
There just hasn’t been a need for it. But perhaps for your getaway, a weekend
there could do you some good. You can use their pool, try out their sauna,
visit a couple of their restaurants, and have a great time with your spouse.
Plus, you can leave the room a mess and they will take care of it for you. If
you would like to do it up a bit more fancy, book a room in the Hôtel Gouverneur. The amenities there will astound
you and make you wish that you never had to leave.
