From February 15-18 is Vail Legacy Days, a four-day celebration of the history of the town. Check out Vail Village when you come down from the ski slopes and enjoy casual to upscale dining spots as well as hundreds of boutiques and shops.

Verona, Italy

Verona is a gorgeous medieval city, making it a fantastic place to celebrate the Valentine’s Day holiday in a romantic locale, where Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet met and professed their ill-fated love. Grab a cocktail or glass of prosecco at a café on the Piazza Bra. Check out beautifully preserved baroque buildings at the Piazza dell Erbe. Don’t miss the Torre del Gardello clock tower. Up for a hike? You can grab a spectacular view of the river and the city by hiking or taking the funicular to the Piazzale Castel San Pietro.

Don’t miss the Hotel de Glace – whether you plan to stay a night or just tour the building. The hotel is created with 500 tons of ice and 30,000 tons of snow and is the only ice hotel in North America. It is open from February through March. Some of the rooms feature hot tubs, themed décor and fireplaces! Guests stay warm with layers of clothing and insulated sleeping bags!

Many tourists enjoy visiting the swimming pigs on Big Major Cay, which swim out to boats when tourists arrive. It is a mystery how they got there but everyone enjoys them nonetheless. When visiting the Exumas, you can expect to see lots of colorful fish, barracuda, spiny lobsters and spotted eagle rays. On land you will experience many seabirds, sea turtles, iguanas and more.
