I have been tasked with the grueling chore of designing a weekend getaway from Dallas using Membership Rewards points.
I know! I know!
It is pure torture!
I live 20 minutes from DFW airport and would like to come up with something fun, fabulous and a bit off the beaten path.

Where should I go? – On an Alaskan Cruise!
Should I travel by train, plan or automobile? – Plane to Seattle then boat on up!
What should I do when I get there? – Beat the heat! Relax on a boat
I think you should go to Eureka Springs AR. That is where I am from….well I am from AR! And it’s the cutest little town in the mountains with cute little shops. My favorite is the year around Christmas store 🙂
ROAD TRIP!!! Rent an AirStream and travel old Route 6 from California to Massachusetts! When you get to Cape Cod, let me know and I’ll treat you to a wonderful lobster feast!

Where should I go? I would go to Tuscany, Italy.
Should I travel by train, plan or automobile? Plane
What should I do when I get there? I would eat & drink & take lots and lots of pictures!!!
You should fly into Germany and take a tour of Southern Germany. The smaller towns are just beautiful and the people are incredibly nice. Plus, most of them speak English as a second language, so no worries on that front, either! Be sure to visit Nuremburg and Erlangen, two of my most favorite places. When we were there, we got cheap train/plane tickets to surrounding countries, too. You can very easily travel around Germany by train, too. Have fun on your travels!

Colonial Williamsburg, VA 🙂 If you appreciate history, it’s very fun!
I tweeted the giveaway, too! @jmroubinek
I would love to go the beach, maybe Myrtle Beach or somewhere in Floriday. We’re originally from the East Coast and I miss the beach the most. We’d probably drive. We have 3 boys ages 5, 7 and 12 and our last plane ride was NOT fun lol!
