Did You Remember To Stretch?
| | That's right - it's Olympics Time again! You should be stretching! Regardless of your feelings and opinions about China, and it's governmental, ahem, challenges, you must admit that the Olympics bring an air of excitement and a feeling of worldwide sportsmanship and camraderie - however temporary. The driving force behind Holiday Golightly, Miss Kerry Rupp, is in Beijing as we speak (write) - and she is probably stretching! No one wants to cramp up at the Olympics! While she won't be competing in anything more strenuous than Attempted Menu Reading, or Synchronized Currency Exchange, we're looking forward to the firsthand reports of the Opening Ceremonies. What YOU can look forward to, in our jolly newsletter, is our interpretation of Olympic events, and some cringe-inducing puns. On your marks...get set...GO! |

Wrestling with myriad choices! I said there would be bad puns, and I meant it. We have revamped the home page at Holiday Golightly. Have you seen it? Adorable, no?
And with the form, comes the function: we have made it easier for you to browse the getaways, based on theme. Each theme has it's own fancy page, with related blog posts and getaways. "I wanna go to a spa", "I wanna go shopping", "I wanna go to the beach". We have solutions for you. And a suggestion to enunciate and speak like an adult.

Yes, yes, we understand there is a strain on the economy. Hmph. Stupid recession. Luckily, we have the target in sight...
and our shrewd arrows of frugality are poised to hit the target of any and all Girlfriend Getaway travel deals being offered by various hotels and resorts worldwide. Check our On Our Radar section for deals.
But, if you're like most of us, you are waiting for the economy to bounce back before traveling again, and substituting shopping for your vacation. You'll appreciate a little guidance with your online shopping.

Summertime means vacations, and vacations mean travel. Usually. Or at least they should. Were you at JFK this past weekend? For random reasons there were a LOT of flight delays. No one expects delays, no one is prepared for delays, and no one enjoys delays. Unless you have something to do... Our Top 10 Things To Do While Stuck At The Airport will give you a few ideas that don't include Cinnabon.
Okay, that's a lie. They do include Cinnabon. We're just here to help you get over those traveling hurdles. We can further exacerbate the land of pun-dom by pointing out that our Top 10 lists also fall under the Decathalon category.

No bad puns here - we're actually talking about the Danskin! Triathalons have become increasingly popular with girlfriends everywhere, and can be an excellent bonding experience, as well as a challenging competition.
Fun runs and charity walks are all well and good, but it takes a bona fide athlete to actually process her entry form for the triathlon.
Whether you're sharing the events, with one girl running, another girl biking, and yet another girl swimming; or if you're hardcore enough to take on the trifecta of exhaustion all on your own, we salute you!
We'll be front and center at the Seattle Danskin on August 17 to cheer on the bona fide athletes. We may even walk a block or two from where we parked.
