Coronado Island and Port Aransas are looking pretty good...

It's where the cool kids go for Spring Break:

A friend of mine owns Sun Perch Villa on False River in Louisiana. It is located right outside Baton Rouge and is well reviewed. My wife and I will be going there later this month for the weekend. They are going to do a big ole crawfish boil while we are there.

If they choose this option, will you have them grab my Toto cassette (Africa) out of David Tullos' 240Z? It's in his new Alpine, can't miss it. Thanks.

That’s what we’re doing. We leave Friday night for Vegas. We had some airfare we had to burn so we booked 4 nights in Vegas with a sightseeing airplane tour to the west rim/skywalk. I’ll rent a car and visit Hoover dam and Red Rock as well.

I’m very familiar with Vegas as I’ve been there at least ten times with my last employer which has a large training facility there. I’ve done the full Hoover dam tour twice, and think it will be a great experience for my 11 year old son.

I'd stay away from the Grand Canyon this early, nothing like being on a motorcycle in 19 degree and snowing weather......

No help here. "Spring Break" didn't exist at my college in the 1950s--only REALLY rich kids could afford such frivolity/concupiscence.

This was free. Relieving it may take money.

Sounds like a good excuse to watch a lot of Girls Gone Wild videos on the big screen, for the sake of research.

Columbia would be my top choice right now.

Japan is really nice that time of year.

International travel isn't as expensive as you'd think. International flights are usually only marginally more expensive than a domestic flight, and American tourist destinations are flat out expensive.

Go somewhere like Vietnam, Thailand, Croatia, Colombia, save a few bucks because it's the off season for those places, and really soak in something different.

Fly into any large Mexican city (The closer it is would be cheaper) then go straight from the airport to the bus terminal, then hop a 2nd class buss without even looking at the destination. 2nd class busses stop anywhere along the road where someone wants on or off. You’ll have your warm climate and a very entertaining educational vacation, but that doesn’t sound like what you are looking for, but it would be for me.

Yes to these suggestions.

We are headed to Ft Meyers Fl. Hope it is nice and toasty.

Ft. Myers beach is nice. Pitchers seafood restaurant is good. Sanibel and captiva have beautiful beaches and are a very short drive and worth seeing them. The Thomas Edison house is also a must see.

My 67 y.o. Drum teacher is going to Florida for spring break.
He's also the drummer for John Kay & Steppenwolf. They're playing a concert for the spring breakers.
