Being that March has spring break, it would seem the powers that be feel we don’t need a long weekend in March (enter eye roll). However with the next 3 day weekend in T-minus 22 days, (Good Friday here we come) we felt it our civic duty to apprise you of the awesomeness that is only a flight away. And trust me, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how far one can travel over a long weekend.
