Here's what your wife would say if she was reading this thread.


New York is where I'd rather stay
I get allergic smelling hay
I just adore that penthouse view
Dahling I love you but give me Park Avenue.

Fly to Phoenix and stay with Delt. I love Phoenix.

If it was me, I'd take her to New York.



If you want something completely different, go to Santa Fe and get a hotel on the town square. There are some great spas there for pampering oneself, and if you stay downtown it's a very unique city. It's also small enough that four days is a reasonable amount of time to spend there.

I was wondering what an expensive vacation must be like, too.... I don't think we spent $3000 on our two trips to Orlando combined.

You must've been stealing your food from small children or something.

Ok, if you fly its going to cost you $300 per person round trip, and thats cheap.

So thats $600

You got to stay some place thats not a rat hole. Lets say $150 a night, 3 nights thats $450, so lets say $500 with taxes.

So we are at $1100 with out doing anything.

$100 bucks a day for food. Could it be cheaper? Yes, but we like to go out for nice meals when on Vacation. Lets say $300

$1400, plus any activitys

OK maybe I should look at doing this for $1500

More power to ya... it's just funny to hear that it's "cheap" compared to all the ways we tried to save to go on those trips while on a college budget. I love to travel, so if I ever get a job that allows it, I'm sure I'll spend lots and lots of money on vacations ;)

Rental car, souvenir t-shirts and refrigerator magnets, entry into some shows or exhibits or something, and you'll spend more on food than that. Maybe $2,000, but more likely $2,250.

Exactly. To me, "cheap vacation" means "within driving distance." For $3k, I think I'd be going on another cruise. :)
