Stay-Cation


Stay-cation is the new Vacation

For those of you who do not yet know what a stay-cation is, it's a home-bound or local Vacation!

This year Prince Charming and I thought it would be most economical to take a local vacation (stay-cation) and the kiddies are excited!

We live in the great state of Illinois, about an hour from the big city of Chicago. There are many tourist attractions and events we can plan to see and visit over these fabulous summer months.

Here are a few tips to plan a Stay-cation:
-Plan as though you actually are taking a vacation
-Research your destination
-Book a hotel
-Visit local attractions (for example): museums, wineries, zoo's, monuments, ball parks, amusement parks and water parks
-Finally, act like you’re on vacation (take pictures and buy a souvenir)

Enjoy!!!
