If you are used to warm or hot weather holidays every year, give yourself and your family a treat and take a cold weather holiday. Completely new worlds of experiences await you and there are many new things to try.
There are advantages to cool weather holidays not available at any other time of the year:
• You get to buy all new gear and clothing for you and your family.
• Visiting a place during the winter that is considered "off- season" often has deeply discounted rates.
• Take a sleigh ride for the first time. Setting up a "Dr. Zhivago" rescue is a romantic adventure.
• Ice fishing in a cabin or outside is something unique.
• Learn how to snow ski. Most lodges rent gear, so you do not have to buy if you decide you do not like it. There are people who travel to ski lodges just to sit around the fire, drink hot cocoa and socialize.
• Stay in the Ice Hotel in Jakkasjarvi, Sweden. The entire hotel is built from ice blocks and so is all the furniture. The drinking glasses are carved from ice cubes.
• You will make new friends while you have new adventures and take pictures hot weather cannot offer. Icicles covering a pine tree in the early morning sun is breathtakingly beautiful.
• There are many new things to learn such as snowmobiling, ice skating in the open air and sledding down a hillside.
There are places to go all year long for cold weather adventures. Alaska, Canada, and Europe have places to go for those escaping the hot weather. The scenery is incredible, and often pristine. Cold weather holidays are rejuvenating.
Instead of sitting in a hotel room trying to escape the heat during your vacation, take a cold weather vacation and stay indoors only when you have to. Enjoy talking with the family, playing games and drinking hot chocolate.
Travel agents are more than happy to help you find a place on the road less travelled. Let friends and relatives brave it out on crowded beaches; surrounded by strangers, sweat and few parking spaces. You will experience a sense of contentment when you are surrounded by clean, open space and clear skies.
You may find your cool weather holiday costs less than spending your time baking in the sun. Spend less time in traffic jams and waiting in line for something to eat or drink. Your hotel room will not be bombarded by music from the beach all night long. Cold weather holiday goers tend to be a friendlier, quieter crowd of people. Have fun and new adventures on your cold weather holiday.
