Weird, Wacky & Wonderful Summer Vacation Ideas – for Cheap

Well, the first one isn’t all that weird…

Los Angeles is quite the bargain these days for travelers – that’s according to USA Today.

Certainly there are plenty of cheap flights there this summer: it took me all of two seconds to find this cheap flight from New York to Los Angeles and this cheap flight from Dallas to LA using FareCompare’s Deal Finder – both flights are priced at under $250 roundtrip.

Once you’re done exploring the splendors of LA, why not drive up the coast to the town of Gilroy – home of the famous Garlic Festival. I’ve heard this annual July event is a lot of fun – and where else will you get a chance to sample garlic ice cream?

Since I’m in a festival frame of mind, anyone for the Road Kill Cook-Off? That’s in Marlington, West Virginia – and no, the food does not contain actual road-kill – the recipes just call for the kind of creature one might find…uh, in the road. Fly into Charleston, WV – I found this cheap flight from Atlanta to Charleston, again for under $250.

A final thought – Australia is on sale this summer – a terrific country filled with terrific people.

    Hi,

    So it isn’t cheap, but it is a different vacation idea – if your readers want to build their own motorcycle while on vacation in Central Florida, they just need to contact us. We work with them remotely to pre-plan the bike build, pre-assemble, and machine any parts needed, then the vacationer comes to our shop for final assembly and can then claim that they “built their own bike” – all our bikes have 17 digit VIN numbers, so they can actually get real insurance (like Progressive) and register them without a lot of hassle.

    You can email us for more info on the vacation offering…
