Do…keep it small. Too many cooks in the kitchen…too many
gals in a hotel room. The simplest task of getting ready to go
out could end up taking all night. Don’t…cram into small
spaces. We are all older now and enjoy our own beds. Book the
right number of hotel rooms or rent a home with enough bedrooms.
If going the value route at least make it a king bed if
girlfriends are to share. Do…bring some treats. Healthy or
otherwise. Your girlfriends will be sure to thank you
Don’t…overindulge. You do not want to spend the whole next day
of your much deserved vacation alone in the hotel room with a
headache or even a bad sunburn. Take precautions girlfriend!.
Do…pack plenty of aspirin and bottled waters. Before diving
into that hotel bed take 2 aspirin and drink a bottle of water.
You’ll thank yourself in the morning. Do…take careful
consideration of everyone’s financial situation. A luxurious
weekend at a 4 star spa or hotel sounds great but you don’t want
to contribute to anyone’s credit card debt. Don’t…overpack.
One tip is to stay with 1 color scheme for the weekend so
everything can mix and match. (FYI Black is always in)
Do…bring along a financially savvy person. There is always one
in the bunch they can help with tips, negotiating for better
hotel rooms, splitting costs, bargain shopping, they will talk
you out of that impulse buy, etc. If you do not have a
girlfriend like this really make a point of finding one.
Don’t…pack new shoes. Whether at a spa or resort hotel you’re
sure to do a lot of walking. Nothing ruins an evening like sore
feet. Do…make it a point to travel with the special girls in
your life annually.
