The snow is starting to melt and the temperature is finally above freezing. You know that that means: It’s time to grab your girlfriends and shake those winter blues! Here are five destinations and excursions to jumpstart your spring.

Puerto Rico
Taste the flavors of the tropics at Casa Bacardi in Cantano, Puerto Rico. Take an interactive tour of the production process and history of Bacardi Rum….and of course, get your sip on.

Costa Rica
Take your yoga class to the next level—the jungle. At Horizon Hotel in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, enjoy sun salutations and downward-facing dogs while you take in ocean views and listen to the sounds of nature (way better than the CD that your instructor uses at home).

New Orleans
Everyone heads to the Big Easy for Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest, but you can leave that to the masses.
Visit this charming city in the spring and take the Secret Gardens Tour; an intimate look at the horticultural jewels of the historical Garden District.

Arizona
Head to the desert to pamper and relax at the Sanctuary Resort and Spa. This world renowned spa is tucked away in the Camelback Mountains, giving you breathtaking views and—most importantly—peace and quiet.

Miami
There’s no way you and your girls can get togther and not sneak in a little partying. So hit up South Beach when all the top DJs and artists are there to get down, Winter Music Conference.  Five days of fab.
