Sleeping in. Admit it, you want to. And we encourage you to when you check in to one of our splendid accommodations. No kids or busy work schedules to wake you. So go ahead, press the snooze button. A leisurely day calls for a less stringent itinerary and a visit to the spa is top on the list of girlfriend "must do's." Make reservations at either The Spa at The Hotel Hershey or Felicita's Garden Resort and Spa. Your tired muscles will thank you. Light lunch following your spa appointment will keep you going until dinner reservations at one of the area's top rated restaurants. Let someone else do the cooking this weekend. An afternoon of shopping, strolling around the Hershey Gardens or along the Susquehanna River in Harrisburg calls to that side of you that needs to relax. Nightlife is always an option for a Girls Night Out and the trendy Restaurant Row along Second Street in Harrisburg is just the place to target.

Savor the beauty of a new day and enjoy breakfast and conversation with your girlfriends. Put on your walking shoes and prepare to take in a day of cultural. Art galleries, museums and specialty shops are never far away from wherever you are staying. Admire local artists and follow the path of the Rt. 15 byway of the arts and stop in at a studio and watch an artist bring a canvas to life. Will your suitcase have room to take home all of the fantastic art ware that you will want to collect? The afternoon may hold the promise of a nap, curling up with a good book in the lobby of your hotel, flexing your shopping muscles some more, taking in an IMAX movie at Whitaker Center, strolling through quaint antique shops in Hershey or dotted throughout Perry County or countless other ideas. Everyone will look forward to another evening out including dining and, perhaps, martinis and a sampling of regional wines.

Today's the day to rise early and get an early tee time at one of the area's well-manicured golf courses. Enjoy a friendly 9-hole match then come back and relax before the rest of your day kicks into gear. Visit one of the area's local or state parks and breathe in nature's bouquet of native plants and flowers. Dine out once again and try something new and different. Load everyone into a car and make tracks for the Penn National Race Course and Hollywood Casino. The thrill of thoroughbred racing comes to life at Penn National and the gang will be amused with the ease of betting and winning (ok, and with an occasional loss but who's counting?) If you are coming in the winter of 2008, bring your spare change and try the slots at the regions brand-new gaming facility. What girlfriend getaway wouldn't be complete without a glam casino atmosphere and hearing the "ka-ching" of the machines? Enjoy yourselves and make plans to meet back in Hershey Harrisburg annually.
