Home for the Holidays?
Not this Year!
By Deborah C. Gerbers
When the winter holidays roll around, most people think of family fireside chats, Christmas trees decorated with lights and ornaments, baking cookies together, and staying warm and cozy while the snow falls down magically outside the window. But, not everyone celebrates the holidays at home like this — destination holiday trips are gaining popularity as a way to spend the holidays together, away from home, in a vacation setting. If you’re interested in swapping your thick sweater-socks for sandy flip flops, and winter parkas for shorts and sundresses, read on to see how a destination holiday vacation might be fun for you and your family!
