Posted: November, 18 2014
With record breaking cold temperatures sweeping the United States this week it's hard to accept that this is just the beginning of what will most likely be another brutal winter. Instead of hunkering down and dealing with the cold from now until next spring, how about planning a little bit of a getaway instead? We're thinking some place with sun, sand and fruity drinks with paper umbrellas. If this sounds better than layering on the long johns, boots and your winter coat and hat, check out these great Caribbean and Central American getaways below.
