KY Bourbon Trail

We know going on the Kentucky bourbon trail is not your typical girl’s getaway, but we however are not your typical girls.  We thought the experience of waking up in a different city each day would be an adventure and we were not disappointed.

Our tour started out heading toward Nashville from Atlanta, our first stop on the trail was Four Roses Distillery, Wild Turkey Distillery, and Woodford Reserve Distillery. Yes, my friends we hit 3 distilleries in one day.  At these distilleries you get to take an up-close and personal tour of how bourbon is made.  Each tour last anywhere from 30 minutes to one hour and at the end of the tour you get to head to the tasting room where you will sample some of their best bourbons. Even if you don’t drink bourbon like us you will find the sampling to be the best part of the tour. Read more

Girls Weekend in Key West

Our favorite girlfriend getaway is Key West.  One of us lives in Georgia and the other lives in Tampa, so when we go to Key West we meet at Fort Lauderdale airport and rent a car to start our fabulous four-hour trip down to the Keys. We find it is easier and cheaper to fly into Ft. Lauderdale due to lower airfares on Spirit and Air Tran. Flights to Key West are usually not direct, so you may spend wasted time sitting at multiple airports, when you could be listening to Jimmy Buffett and chatting it up with your girlfriend as you drive down the road. Those flights also tend to be double in price as well, so our advice is to save money on your flight purchase (however you can) so you will have more to spend on the Island.

Once you arrive in Key West it feels like you are in another country but you didn’t even need your passport to get there.  The best places to stay are in walking distance to Duval Street.  Our favorite place to stay is the Pier House. It is the only hotel with a beach and we use the term “beach” loosely.  Key West is not known for great beaches; however, it is a great place for sunning and sipping. Read more
