Let spring break commence!
Spring break starts for our kiddo today and when I asked him on Friday what he wanted to do this week his reply was, “Rest!” I don’t blame him. High school life can be really stressful so, if all he wants to do this week is chill, I’m totally okay with it and will support him all the way.
Besides we don’t usually go anywhere for spring break except for that one time that we visited my friend in Maryland. Also, those times that the hubs and I explored a few must-see places here in the city. Let’s walk down memory lane, shall we?
Getaway to Baltimore
It was in 2012 when a friend of mine who I grew up in the same neighborhood with and went to the same high school in the Philippines invited us to her second child’s Christening. She was working as a nurse in Baltimore at that time, but has moved to Sacramento since then with her family.
We were there for a few days and our first day was spent at the Christening and celebrating. The following day was spent exploring the must-see places in the city. We also visited a battlefield on our way home. I’ve shared them all here before so check them all out below

Must-See Places in Asheville
There are a lot of fun places to visit here in the city and we visited a few of them on spring break a few years ago. Check them all below.
I’ve shared some ideas here for spring break family fun other than traveling just in case you needed them, and I think other than a little spring cleaning for me, we’re going to watch a lot of movies here at home. The kiddo also made a request for chocolate crinkle cookies so, baking will be on my to-do list this spring break as well. Not bad at all.
How about you? Have you had your spring break yet? What’s your idea of spring break adventures?
My grandkids are on spring break this week too. The teen also said he wanted to rest. Baseball season just ended and prom was Saturday night so I know he needs to catch up on sleep.
I hope you have an amazing Spring Break! Ours was back in March and we mostly hung out at home. We did venture out to Target a few times 😉
We have never been to Baltimore is one place we really want to go visit. Heard and seen some great places to visit.
yay for spring break- these seem perect for my little guy who loves all things cars and trucks ha so id love to see what he would think of going to something like this when he gets older!
I hope you have a wonderful, relaxing Spring Break! It sounds like you have some great plans made. Have lots of fun spending time together!
Sometimes you just need a break. Spring break is a very good time for kids to just sit back and relax. It sounds like you do have a nice restful spring break planned. I definitely would not mind exploring a couple of these places myself.
We did have our spring break already in mid-March. We are earlier here in the Midwest than you I think.
I hope you have a lovely spring break. Sometimes it is nice to just do nothing at all and have a bit of relax. We all need to recoup and revive.
For kids and parents both, Spring Break is a magical week! Time for winding down, relaxing, and taking a road trip to a fun destination!
We had a wonderful time in Branson, MO this Spring Break. It was sunny and that was perfect as it’s been raining off and on here during the week.
We used to travel during spring break, but once our kids were in high school, they had too many commitments to leave town. However, it is really nice to have a staycation too. I hope your son enjoys his break.
We went to Baltimore a few years ago and had a great time. There was so much to see and do. I’d love to visit again!
My son had spring break last week. I love visiting local states and going on road trips.
We plan on taking a short trip to Asheville during the summer as a quick weekend getaway for my summer series of going to small towns. Can’t wait to check out some of the places
Spring Break travel!! I remember that! We used to go all the time when we both were teachers. I miss the excitement of a spring break trip.
So much fun! I hope you all have a wonderful spring break – especially your kiddo. Enjoy every minute!
Resting is important so their body and mind can recuperate. We don’t have Spring break in Catholic School but we do have 3-day Easter break.
Ahh, there are lots to see in Baltimore! It’s okay to stay at home and chill during Spring break.
Yes! Kids need rest too. Glad he recognized that. The weather is great out and perfect for all the excitement.
Have fun on Spring Break! There is always something to do and find! Have fun.
