If you and your spouse had 5 days off in the middle of September where would you go?!?!

Las Vegas!

Palm Springs or Phoenix

We just had 1 night in Palm springs recently. We'd go back and check it out.

Nova Scotia

Maui

Vacations I find are usually super cheap to go in September and October, just when everyone starts going back to school and work. I've seen flights to Paris in those months for $150 round trip, Thailand for $420, 4 star all inclusives in Maya Riviera including round trip for $560, 7 days and round trip to Honolulu for $480, the sky's the limit for those months lol

We only have 5 days so I think Europe and Thailand are out but I do like the idea of hawaii

Wow! Where did you see flights to Paris for $150??

Yvr deals had it showing for around 150, also saw it on itravel2000 for around 250 and expedia once around 180. Just have to keep looking and checking, alot of the times they are flash deals, just like the $480 Honolulu trip at a hotel in front of a park beach that was 4stars. I actually lost out on that one because I had to help my mom pick apples, came back and the deal was gone only after 20mins, went back to 920 (which is still relatively cheap)

Tuesday, Wed and Thursday day time is usually cheaper than shopping on weekends I find.

Leaving on (flights) a Tuesday is generally cheaper I find than leaving on other days of the week

Family in Toronto

San Fran

Palm springs

Vegas

Seeing a lot of palm springs recommendations. Don't see much for activities for that area. Curious to know what you guys like about palm springs. May go there as well if there is lots to do besides golf and tennis

Palm Springs aerial tramway

Joshua tree national park

oregon coast!

Haven't been to either but those are what we wanted to go check out. If you have a rental cal you could pop over to Anaheim for a day at Disney.

or san Diego you will spend 2 days travelling so dont go far!

San Fran/Napa!

repositioning cruise out of van to san fran or LA!

Yellow point lodge on van island.

Portland or the Island

I agree with Portland

Port Townsend. I love the old houses, the antique stores and the waterfront/marina vibe.

Nevada

Enjoy Canadian Rockies! Lake Louise etc. Depends what your looking for?

Somewhere close so your not spending a lot of time travelling !

Maldives

We only have 5 days

Tifino then or one of the gulf islands. Galiano is our fav..

Cannon Beach, Oregon Coast

What a delicious question, Charity! Because I don't have infinite money or vacation time, I'm as much an armchair traveller as a real traveller. Planning is half the fun!
I've had excellent trips to BC's backcountry in September. Mosquitoes have been killed by the first frost, the fall rains haven't settled in yet and the parks and Crown land are pretty much empty. Try Wells Gray Provincial Park.

Okanagan Valley

Vegas, weather in sept is hot but tolerable and it’s low season so hotel rates are cheap and pools/strip aren’t crowded.

Get a nice Airbnb in Penticton or Summerland and do wine country. I have all the best patios I can recommend and now also a few good breweries. Even Dirty Laundry vineyard does craft beer now. Walk or bike the KVR trail and bring home some fresh fruit and tomatoes too. Perfect 5 days. We do it end of sept start of October for a few years now. A 4 or 5 hour drive and you are there.

Is money a question? There are SO MANY local adventures in BC without dealing with the exchange rate. 5 days is too few for Hawaii - I’d be tempted for sun to go to either SF, Vegas or Phoenix (air B&B with your own pool is soooo cheap).
Local I agree with okanagan wine country, whistler or come over to my back yard on Vancouver Island! I have a million suggestions over here

California.. west jet...Orange County ( Santa Ana)
Irvine, train to San Diego ( 1.5 hrs) one day.. can take a train to Santa Barbara too,( 3.5 hrs, beautiful and along the water) on Amtrak.. but Irvine is amazing. The spectrum.and close to Newport Beach and Laguna beach. Anaheim close..
3 hrs on west jet..
Not wasting time travelling.

For $383 you can get a direct return flight to Iceland! It's incredible and a place not many people go. You can see it in a few days....direct flights from YVR to Reykjvik!

Some days are cheaper

Maui

Vegas

Waikiki

Sparkling hill! And hit up a winery in Kelowna

Good choice !

I like the wineries in Naramata and Summerland more. The views around he lake are crazy

Okanagon- Naramata

Bermuda! Flights are cheap, short and the beaches are breathtaking! Hotels can be expensive, look into AirBnB

Osoyoos

The Okanagan.. do a wine tour, golfing, beaches, hiking, dine out, so much to do.

Paris

Disneyland. My husband and I went a few years ago before kids and it was amazing. Fantastic weather, short lines.

Palm Springs

Vegas

As far away from each other as possible

Boston!

NYC

Oregon coast.

Nashville!

From each other?

Cabo. ...... check out our place there. Give you the family & friends rate.
VRBO 388619. PM me or call. Get my number from BiBi.
It’s about a 4.5 hr flight from here. Our place is 2 blocks to walk to beach about 4 blocks to town.
There are several great restaurants all around & we have a full kitchen.
It’s very safe there as the government has sent a very heavy police presents to weed out cartel.

NY city. Go big.

Hawaii

Ucluelet/Tofino or the Okanagan Valley: Black Rock Oceanfront Resort (Ucluelet) + Spirit Ridge at NK’MIP Resort (Osooyoos) are romantic indulgences.
Haida Gwaii is still on my to-see list!

Costa Rica!

Only have 5 days

our last trip to Costa Rica was only 5 days and I was pretty ready to go home after that.
But another option could be Orlando, Florida for Harry Potter world and such

Thanks everyone some great ideas but I’m curious as there is so many Palm Springs suggestions, suggestions of things to do besides golf?!?!

Honolulu, HI
5 days off plus the weekend make up for a whole week! Just a perfect amount of time to relax and re-connect with each other!

Napa

Montreal!

Valle de Guadalupe!

Elisa YB
NYC

Charity try our vrbo site. Pm me & I’ll get you the number k. It’s in Cabo & sept migh5 be vacant.

Thanks terry but we decided to do a road trip through arizona

Depends how much of your five days you want to spend traveling. Maybe Tofino or head over the border to Portland.

Wine touring out of Kelowna

Sort of what I said but I prefer Penticton and the Naramata bench , Summerland for Dirty Laundry (one of 2 fave patios) and also access to south of lake to Nkimp and Road 13. So awesome. And the ability to walk the KVR right out your door.

To a his home town to visit his mom and explore Ontario which I have never seen
