What would be a super cheap, low key place to take my bf during spring break '10 in the U.S.?
This is going to sound crazy, lol, but I just won $2500 on a lottery ticket. No shit. I've been dreaming for the last 2 years to bring my bf to the states. He lives in Uganda (we met during an internship I had where he works 2 summers ago). I didn't think I'd be able to bring him here until after I graduated college and the whole shebang. I've already got this year and next year paid for through scholarships (I also found out I won another $1500 scholarship today!!) and so I'm thinking to hell with it, I'm only going to live once...and this is something I've always dreamed of being able to do. All of that said, I go to school in south-central Colorado and I would fly him in to New York. I check all of the time on flight prices and, after accounting for roundrtip airfare, visa fees, getting him to the embassy and airport, and all of that, I'd have about $500 left over (super low estimate). I make $500/month while in college and could easily save another $1500 towards the trip, for a total of $2000 to pay for airfare for me wherever we'd go, busfare for him to get to where we go (I'd fly him in a few days early), hotel, expenses, and food. Thoughts on where we ought to go? I'm cool with sleeping at a Motel 6 and the fanciest restaurant in town being Red Lobster--I was raised on those kinds of vacations. I don't want to go to your typical SB destination--aka, any place with a beach, drunken teens everywhere, and no hotels less than $150/night. Here are the things I'd like: hotel fare for <$120/night (for one week) good public transportation or many things within walking distance decent sights if in the city, or cheap-but-romantic if in the boonies cheap, low-key atmosphere. I'm open to pretty much anywhere, though someplace east of CO is preferred since I'll most likely fly him into NY. Thanks!
