The colder it gets the more time I spend daydreaming about blue skies, sandy beaches, and tropical drinks. Really, if I spend the whole winter here in New York City it will be months before I get to wear one of my cute little black sundresses - a travesty! I'm working on my list of possible warm weather escapes and just received an e-mail from the fab folks at Budget Travel about a great deal to the Caribbean island of Curacao - book a trip before January 8, 2011 and your 4th night is free. Travel between January 1 - April 1, 2011 to qualify for this deal. Participating hotels include Super Clubs Breezes Curacao Resort, Hilton Curacao, Veneto Beach Resort, and several others.
