Plan the Ultimate Gal Trip
December 17, 2007. Yesterday, we discussed another great excuse for luxury vacation rentals – a guys golf trip for the winter. For all the same reasons, a gals spa and shopping trip makes perfect sense. After all, women of the world work hard all year long to take care of their children (husband included.) What could be better than a relaxing day of massage, mud bath and manicure, followed by a hunt for a new outfit or two (or three or four?)
When planning a gals spa and shopping trip, it’s best to get everyone involved early on. Organize a night out for dinner or drinks, and then offer the idea. Write a list of destinations on a napkin.
California’s Wine Country offers some world-class spas and shopping, and San Francisco’s shopping districts are only a hour away. The Mediterranean-like climate stays mild through winter. Miami also has equally fantastic boutiques and spas. Or, head to San Antonio and its famous Riverwalk, where stores display cowgirl boots alongside high heels.
When everyone’s agreed on a location, offer to handle the reservations and transportation. If anyone volunteers, perhaps you can spread the duties around. If not, have fun planning the trip!
