How to See the Best Sites in Acadia National Park (in 3 Days!)
Sometimes a long weekend is all we can fit into our busy lives. I live within driving distance (OK – 11 hours) of Acadia National Park but had never been, so I decided to make my dream a reality. From beautiful coastal views to exhilarating hikes, Acadia did not disappoint. Even with the short amount of time, we were able to squeeze in SO many activities.

3 Fun-Filled Days in Beautiful London
If you’ve been to London before, you know that 3 days is just NOT enough to see everything. Unfortunately, that was all the time we had on this trip, as we were there for a wedding and on to other countries after, so we decided to squeeze in as much as we could in 3 short days. If this is your first time to London, we definitely recommend staying longer, but if like us, 3 days is all you have, consider this itinerary for a nice variety of activities.
How to Budget Your Time in Shenandoah National Park
Looking for a great escape during these unprecedented times? Shenandoah National Park is just 75 miles from Washington, D.C. and is bursting with nature! From the endless vistas to the fields of wildflowers and countless wildlife, you will find a reprieve from the daily pandemic life! It’s the perfect getaway for families, friends, couples, or even a solo traveler. Shenandoah is known for its fall foliage, so naturally we went in the beginning of November.

Shenandoah has so much to explore, but it’s our hope that this guide will help you make your perfect itinerary.

How to Spend a Long Weekend in Tennessee
Every year, we try to take a long weekend trip sometime in the fall. We typically choose our destination by cheapest/best flight we can find. Knoxville happened to have VERY cheap flights through AllegiantAir, so our decision was made for us. We would rent a car, check out the foliage in the Smoky Mountains, do a road trip to Nashville and be home in under 4 days.
