Here's a GREAT idea if you can't think of a gift for Valentine's Day. Plan a romantic get-away to a cozy Bed and Breakfast. The good news is Valentine's Day is on a Thursday this year; that means there will be less traffic as you drive and you may even get a bargain on the rates because it's not a weekend.Many Bed & Breakfasts will offer special Valentine's Day packages which may include flowers and candy in the room or dinner for two at a local restaurant. Check with the Innkeeper and ask about specials; if they don't offer flowers and candy they will probably be happy to arrange it for you. Most Innkeepers I have met were all very helpful and happy to go the extra mile for their guests.
VERY IMPORTANT
In order to have the full effect...you need to plan this on your own and keep it a complete surprise until you arrive at your destination! Also remember, most Bed & Breakfasts require a two-night stay for the best rates, so plan on taking a day or two off from work.
Remember, this is a ROMANTIC holiday...so leave your laptop at home and turn off your pager and cell phone. It's all about romance.
Try to arrange to do something completely new on this trip. Perhaps horseback riding, or a relaxing day at the spa together. Again, the Innkeeper should be able to suggest some things like this in the area.
Here is a Worldwide Directory of Bed & Breakfasts.
Enjoy your Valentine's Day; and if use this idea, be sure to come back and comment about it here.
