Whisk Your Loved One Away for Valentine’s Day
You may tell your special someone that you love them every day, but something extra might be expected on Valentine’s Day. Why not take your loved one’s breath away by whisking him or her off to one of the most romantic locations on earth? 
Paris, France, simply shimmers with romance. A simple evening’s walk along the city’s narrow streets and wide boulevards can be enchanting. In the historic city center, you can stroll past the Louvre, the Palais-Royal, the Pont Neuf bridge and the Tuileries Garden; or, visit the Canal Saint-Martin neighborhood, where footbridges gracefully arch over a canal that feeds into the Seine. Stop in at a bistro or café for dinner a deux, and you’ll have a memorably romantic evening.
The impressive public squares of Rome are perfect for lovers. In the busy Piazza Navona, public displays of affection are welcome – perhaps even expected. Hold hands over a pair of cappuccinos at an outdoor café, in sight of majestic sculptures, fountains, churches and palaces. The ruins of ancient Rome also go well with declarations of eternal love and devotion – you’ll find some of the most romantic along the remains of the Appian Way.
Closer to home, Quebec City is the capital of Quebec province in Canada and one of the oldest cities in North America. The Old City is full of historic structures, as well as charming restaurants, pubs, galleries and boutiques. Stroll the boardwalk for lovely views of the St. Lawrence River, the Laurentian Mountains and the Ile d’Orleans. Visit the Old Port and Place Royale, built in 1608; and the Plains of Abraham, site of a 1759 battle between the French and the British.
There are many other romantic spots around the globe – Venice, Acapulco and Bali, to name just a few. If your budget or schedule doesn’t accommodate international travel, you can surely find romance closer to home, too.  Whether you’d like to travel halfway around the world or straight to your area’s best bed & breakfast for Valentine’s Day, contact Barbara, Farrina or Rashmi at 281-480-1988 or www.travelleaders.com/future. |
