Texas Weekend Getaway - Jet Away!

Hop a flight to see Historic Route 66 or Palo Duro Canyon or attend Tri-State Fair & Rodeo in Amarillo in September or Annual Mardi Gras Upriver Inc. in Jefferson in February. 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 Texas events like Annual Winter Night Ceremonials in Amarillo in February or Fifth Annual Chocolate Festival in Grapevine in March. A weekend is definitely not enough time to explore all of Texas, but what could be more romantic than hopping a short flight to have a romantic dinner and see a show on Saturday in Lubbock, and then enjoy brunch Sunday morning and heading home. Maybe a wonderful Amarillo 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 Lubbock."
