Children: Delaney, 6 years old | Need a Christmas idea | | OK, so this is our first Christmas as a married couple and I'd like to do something fun together. I was thinking we'd get away for a couple of days to somewhere. Like, we took a 2 day trip to Niagara Falls a couple of years ago and it cost like $200 (plus gas and food). I'm looking for something similar to that...someplace within driving distance of Cleveland (Niagara is 5 1/2 hour away) that we can go and have a good time that won't kill our bank account.
Any suggestions?

You can spend a mint. You can spend nothing. Its more about the time. The falls sound nice.
Me and DW have not been anywere alone since DS was born.

Where they turn a wooded area into a Christmas wonder land, with Santa, elves, reindeer etc and there are little cabins for people to stay over for a couple of nights. |

Children: Delaney, 6 years old | Re: Need a Christmas idea | | No, our daughter is staying at home. I like the idea of the cabins...ironically, I was just looking at them, and still have a browser window open! Amish Country Ohio Romantic Honeymoon or Anniversary Cedar Cabins Berlin OH

Children: 2 boys - 8yo and 3yo | Re: Need a Christmas idea | | how about Windsor, Ont. or Football Hall of Fame?
(Def, not keokuk)
Would she like either of those?
Maybe research B&Bs and Inns like an hour away or so, doens't matter where, just away. How nice to just be able to sleep in, enjoy a leisurely coffee in the morning, just sit by the fire for a a few hours... |

Children: Delaney, 6 years old | Re: Need a Christmas idea | | Windsor would be fun because we both like to play blackjack. Pro Football Hall of Fame is like an hour from here and I wanted to get a little further away, plus she hates sports.
