Sunday night party

I used to have a goal, that I would go to at least one new place every year. The last couple years I've blown this out of the water- this year alone I've added West Virginia, Georgia and Tennessee as new states I've been to. So my 2017 goal is to get out of the country, because not counting Tijuana (and I don't), I've never been. And in truth, the Alaska trip means I'll be spending a couple days in Vancouver, but... if I'm being really honest, Mexico and Canada just seem easy as an American. I can just walk over the border using a passport card, though you can see the above linked Tijuana post to see why I'm not in a hurry to do that again.

So, I'd like to do something in addition to Vancouver. A while back I told a friend that once I'm done with Disney we should look up Groupon deals and whatever's cheapest, we should go. So tonight I got bored and started looking up Groupon Getaway deals, just to see what's out there. Mainly what I'm finding is that you can do all-inclusive trips for pretty cheap if you're okay with someone else making your itinerary. I don't know that I know anyone who's done a tour group through something like this, but I also feel like if it wasn't reputable I'd have heard about it on the news by now, you know? Also aside from European tours that are slightly out of my price range right now, it looks like we'll be a little limited to Mexico, Jamaica, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. Which is fine with me. I have no problem hanging out on a beach as long as I also get out to see the area beyond the hotel/resort.

Also, thanks to Groupon, I want to go to the Galapagos.
