Long Weekends, Short Trips
Hey, we love to take long weekends around here. And Travel + Leisure apparently loves them too: this month's issue blows the lid off 12 destinations that aren't too far away from anywhere. The cover story breaks down places to stay, places to eat, what's good to see and do and gives us "insider tips." Here's a couple of T+L recommendations that got us thinking about booking some tickets:Whistler: First and foremost, it's easy to get to Whistler, flying into Vancouver's great airport. Once you're in town, you don't even have to hit the slopes, as there are more art galleries and restaurants than you can shake a ski pole at. Shoppers take note: T+L likes the Path Gallery for First Nations sculpture.
Fez: Royal Air Maroc has direct flights from Casablanca, which means limited stops before landing in this imperial city full of riads and marketplaces. T+L recommends Riad Fes where you can make like royalty in the ornate courtyard.
São Paolo: Tired of Buenos Aires and Rio stories yet? Get ready for the SP onslaught. There are slick boutiques and bossa nova record stores all around, and since it's summer down south, the paulistanos are set to party.
