The preparation for a vacation is almost as
exhilarating as the vacation itself. I love printing out the tickets and
confirmations while thinking about how much fun I will have on vacation. I
enjoy researching all the sights at the location I will see once I arrive at my
destination. When you want to plan avacation contact me!
Look at the article below for an enthralling
perspective on travel.
Christmas Away From Home - Times Are Changing!
The tradition of waiting at home for Santa's visit,
like all other traditions, is under going a change. No wonder then, that we
find more and more American families spending Christmas away from home. To
cater to the needs of those going out for a vacation before or during
Christmas, there is a variety of fun holiday locations we can look into.
In upstate New York, located in the Adirondack
Mountains, there is North Pole. Yes, North Pole, New York is one of the most
charming places to vacation during Christmas time for both young in age and at
heart. Open for five weekends prior to Christmas, the vacation packages offer
lodging and meals along with admission to Santa's workshop. With live music,
live glassblowers, puppet shows and other holiday entertainment it makes a
perfect Christmas holiday for you and your family. To top it all the Santa's Village
has shops where you can look for a memento from your Christmas vacation.
The next best thing to being in this North Pole is
North Pole, Alaska. The Alaskan North Pole Christmas vacation packages are
keyed up to give the genuine North Pole experience by including a visit to
Santa's house in North Pole. Further credibility is provided in shape of an
optional dog sled ride on authentic Alaskan dog sled, through the Santa's
village in the North Pole. It indeed makes for a once in a life time
experience. Like the North Pole, New York packages, Alaskan North Pole too
offers one or two night stay over the weekend. Accommodation is available in
the nearby Fairbanks and at the Chena Hot Springs Resort and also at the
Santaland RV Park. Shopping for souvenirs is easy at Santa House which also
houses a large store that stocks all types of gifts and mementos that you would
like to take back home. Irrespective of your age Alaskan North Pole offers you
the best for Christmas merry making.
Hershey, Pennsylvania is another place that you may
consider for a Christmas vacation if you are traveling before or during the
Christmas season. Home of the Hershey's candy, Hershey Park transforms into
Christmas Candyland, a month before Christmas when one million lights are lit for
the visitors. The staff at Hershey's Park joins in to put up animated displays
which are sure to enchant children and adults alike. Christmas Candyland,
during Christmas and the rest of the Park throughout the year, Hershey Park
make for a perfect escape from repetitive routine city life.
If you have watched the Walt Disney World parade,
televised ever year from Orlando, Florida, then seeing the real thing will be a
out of the world experience for your children. Seeing all their favorite Disney
characters adorned in Santa hats and Christmas getups during Christmas time
will delight not only your children but you too. There will not be a single
dull moment during your Disney vacation with special Christmas time shows the
like of Mickey Mouse's 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and Belle's Enchanted
Christmas Storytelling. Thousands of Giant Christmas trees, lit up with myriads
of Christmas lights ensures that no one, young or old, remains untouched by the
magic of Disney World.
For lots of fun at reduced prices, a visit to
Disney World during Christmas time is value for money, as the rates are far
lower than the peak season time. In contrast to the cold wintry Christmas,
Christmas in the Disney World is a different experience with temperatures in
the mid 70's. The charm and enchantment of Disney World is sure to compensate
for absence of snow and Santa's sledge.

Happy,
happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days,
recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler
back to his own fireside and quiet home!
