I'm so excited to be making my first Diamond Destination blog entry. As a foreword, I'll be sharing with you all the details you need to plan your trip for each location we feature and a few tips I've learned along the way.
First stop RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA!
Now to be honest, I have been here twice in a little less than a year so I should have posted this a while ago but I enjoyed myself so much it was worth going twice.
TRAVEL:
We flew Frontier both times because the cost for a direct flight was $30 each way. This is an a la carte airline so you pay for each amenity or service offered but with such a low base price who cares right?
HOTEL:
We did suite with a full kitchen including microwave, stove, oven, dishwasher, full refrigerator, toaster and more. We had access to a pool, weight room, hot tub, tennis courts and a basketball court during our stay. We also have FREE dinner and complimentary beer and wine Saturday and Sunday night. I used my frequent traveler card to earn point and spent about $100 a night.
Once we landed last year we headed to an African American Festival for food and soul music. My favorite picture from that afternoon is post on the right in this blog page. We did everything FREE and really enjoyed the city. The museums downtown are great for a day, the hotel was perfect for down time and the cities has lots to explore.
