Holiday Travel - Virginia's December Getaways

December girl getaways in Virginia are awaiting you! Throughout the area, there are several holiday events planned, perfect for escaping the season’s stress and reconnect with your girlfriends.

Here’s a taste of what Virginia has in store for the holidays:

Candlelight Tour
Alexandria is filled with historic homes, churches and taverns. Grab your mom or best girlfriend to visit them aglow with holiday cheer during a Historic Candlelight Tour. For one weekend only, take a candlelight special tour of Carlyle House, Gadsby's Tavern Museum, and the Lee-Fendall House. During the tour, enjoy seasonal decorations, entertainment and light refreshments. The event takes place on December 12 – 13, 2009. Advance ticket purchases are highly recommended and can be purchased online via Gadsby’s Tavern.

Kwanzaa Workshop
Curious about Kwanzaa or if you want to learn more, reserve space for you and a girlfriend to attend a fun, interactive program at the Alexandria Black History Museum. The Kwanzaa workshop will review the principles of the holiday, and show ways to make Kwanzaa gifts and crafts. The workshop is a great way to learn about the African American holiday and best of all it’s free! The workshop is held on December 12, 2009 - for more information, visit the museum’s website at http://www.alexblackhistory.org/

100 Miles of Lights
In the mood for a roadtrip? From Richmond to Hampton Roads, southern Virginia displays a fantastic 100 Miles of Lights. The light show displays amazing holiday lights and decor, events and travel packages throughout various cities. Visit the light festival and accomplish your holiday shopping with great combination packages. The Best Western’s Williamsburg 2/night holiday package includes tickets to Christmas at Busch Gardens and a $20 Prime Outlets gift card with rates starting at $144/night.

This is only a sample of what Virginia has to offer during the holidays! For tons more activities to spend time with your girlfriends, check out Virginia for the Holidays.
