Since the silent auction begins one week from today, I thought I'd preview the trips I'm featuring! I don't know anyone who would make a quick decision about a vacation (I wish I did - those hypothetical people sound exciting and adventurous and kooky!) This preview will give you a week to think about your vacation desires... to check your schedules... to beg your spouse (hee hee!)... and google these locations and hotels and airfares if they aren't included.
I have readers all over the world - which stuns me, still. So while someone like me may not dream of flying to Monte Carlo - it may not be much for someone already in Europe! There's a lot of trips that hopefully will appeal to many, wherever you live. And I purposefully didn't include airfare on many of the trips because that's something that people can find deals on - or use miles - to make it more affordable.
Remember to register for the silent auction - which is open to EVERYONE and doesn't cost a dime! - HERE. And don't forget to purchase your ticket if you're coming to the event on April 5th! This is the last week for "early bird" tickets!
Happy vacation hunting!!
