Louisiana Weekend Getaway - Jet Away!

Hop a flight to see Louisiana Boardwalk or Old Ferry Landing in Port Allen or attend Festival Acadiens Bayou and Creole Food in Lafayette in October or Folklife Festival in Monroe in September. Just because it's a weekend doesn't mean it won't be memorable. The important thing to remember when considering far away romantic travel with only a weekend to spare is to find something specific you especially want to experience while you're there. Consider checking out some of the great Louisiana events like Cotton Festival in Ville Platte in October or Tamale Fiesta in Zwolle in October. A weekend is definitely not enough time to explore all of Louisiana, but what could be more romantic than hopping a short flight to have a romantic dinner and see a show on Saturday in Shreveport, and then enjoy brunch Sunday morning and heading home. Maybe a wonderful New Orleans resort offers a great weekend spa package for two, giving you just enough time to relax, unwind and connect with one another. The best thing about weekend getaways is they help give us great ideas for future travel destinations. Imagine when you're coworkers ask you "So what did you do this weekend?" you can say "Well, on Saturday I had lunch... in New Orleans."
