the goal was simple. go away for the labor day long weekend somewhere. anywhere. with a small luggage and my camera in tow, it would have to be completely last minute and random so i couldn't plan anything. and in keeping with the tongue in cheek title of this mini-adventure, i would keep the budget for the entire getaway to $1000.
here are the conditions:
* leave september 2, return september 6
* passport must be used
* cannot book anything until at least the day before i leave
* flight, hotel and all expenses cannot exceed $1000
after i had committed to making this my labor day long weekend, work was kind enough to send me to toronto a few days prior for business, making it easier for me to find a last minute destination from one of the major hubs out east. the only catch with this being a half work trip is that i had to leave september 3 instead, which was okay. and there we go...one person. one long weekend. one thousand dollars. the only question is: where would i end up?
