A Guest Column by Jessica Zen
I stopped by Family & MWR’s Leisure Travel Services office to get some information on weekend trips...and here’s what I learned. You can easily get away from Alabama by taking a short trip to Florida or Georgia, both within driving distance for a mini vacation.
If some quality time at the beach is what you crave, head down to Panama City Beach, where there is more to do than just lay in the sand. After some fun in the sun, head to Gulf World Marine Park, which is fun for the whole family. It offers dolphin, tropical bird, sea lion, and reptile shows, along with shark and turtle feedings, and much more.
Tired of the beach? Atlanta, Georgia has a lot to offer. The Leisure Travel Center offers an Atlanta City Pass for $69 that allows you to save 45% on trips to the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, and Inside CNN Studio Tour. The pass also includes admission to: either the High Museum of Art, or the Fernbank Museum of Natural History, and either the Zoo Atlanta, or the Atlanta History Center.
Looking for more of a thrill but still want to stay in Atlanta? Meander on over to Six Flags Over Georgia and get your adrenaline going on the new Sky Screamer, their tallest ride ever at 24 stories high.
Want more information? Stop by the Leisure Travel Services in the Building 5700 and talk with the knowledgeable staff. They can truly help plan a vacation to remember!
