*Free Raleigh, NC Getaway*

Believe it or not, I’ve never been to North Carolina. I know several people who live there, though. It’s one of the few states I have not yet visited! But I would definitely like to go there someday. It’s a great coastal state, and I hope to one day visit all fifty states!

Luckily, this fall is a great time to visit! Right now, you can go to www.visitraleigh.com (as in Raleigh, North Carolina) and register to win a FREE Raleigh getaway! This free getaway includes:
*One night accommodations for two at the Courtyard Marriott Raleigh Crabtree Valley
*$25 gift certificate to Bloomsbury Bistro

I know North Carolina may not sound like the most exciting place to visit. They don’t have major tourist attractions like Disney World. But experience has shown me that sometimes, the less-famous states can hold much more exciting adventures – and they cost a whole lot less! Right now is a perfect time for a fall getaway. You can spend Halloween enjoying Raleigh’s fabulous Celtic Halloween festivities. Raleigh just might be the setting of your priceless family memories!

Raleigh also has lots of history around it. There were a number of Civil War battles fought in North Carolina, as well as a few battles from the Revolutionary War. There are several museums in Raleigh, where you and your children can learn about art, science, and history in a fun and interactive way. So what are you waiting for? Visit Raleigh now!
