Washington D.C. & Southern Virginia Getting There

Southwest Airlines departing Dallas Love Field 7:15 AM

Thank you for visiting my vacations on a budget blog.  Our family enjoys travelling, but a budget is necessary. I created my blog to help others plan their next vacation. Over the next several weeks I will post a travel tip from our vacation to Washington D.C. & Southern Virginia in October 2017.  Don't forget to subscribe to my blog so you do not miss any of my posts about our trip to a place a nation was born! This week the blog will provide tips on getting to Washington D.C. without "breaking the bank". 

Washington D.C. & Virginia Introduction

Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog.  I created this blog for families who want to travel while not "breaking the bank".  My husband and I are both teachers, making a budget all the more important.  Our son is 13 years old. We want to show him as much of this beautiful world as we can before he heads off to college.  I guess our wanderlust can best be summed up as "Life moves pretty fast.  If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." Ferris Beuller. Our journey will take us to Washington DC for a second time and southern Virginia a first time. So come along with us on our journey to a place where a nation was born!

Hello! Thank you for visiting my family vacations on a budget blog. My family loves to travel! However my husband & I are both teachers making a budget all the more important.  We have one child, our son is 13. I want to show him as much of this wonderful world as I can before he is grown. This summer we visited the Pacific Northwest for our family vacation.  We traveled July 11th-20th throughout this beautiful area of the United States. July & August in the Pacific Northwest are known for dry & moderate temperatures, it only rained on us once & that was on the way to the airport at the end of our trip!  In this blog post I will tell you about our two days at the Oregon Coast: where we stayed, things we did, & travel tips to help you as you plan your next vacation. The Oregon Coast was our last stop on our vacation adventure. Checkout my previous posts from our Pacific Northwest vacation to learn about other great places to visit while vacationing in this part of the country.
