			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.lets-plan-our-holiday.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/winter-lodge.jpg"><img src="http://www.lets-plan-our-holiday.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/winter-lodge-300x199.jpg" alt="winter-lodge" title="winter-lodge" width="300" height="199" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-599" style="float:left;margin-right:10px;" /></a>A lot of people might decide to stay tucked under their blankets or relax near their own fireplace but winter travel can be a lot of fun especially if you are staying in one of the world’s top winter lodges:</p>
<h3>Riffelalp Resort in Switzerland</h3>
<p>If you want how royalties enjoy the winter, stay at the Riffelalp Resort located 7,288 feet on Zermatt in Switzerland. The winter lodge definitely offers some solitude and a great view of the Alps. It is a luxury winter hideaway which promises excellent service fit for the most opulent guests.</p>
<h3>Lumiere Telluride in Colorado</h3>
<p>Please every woman’s desire in this magnificent winter lodge in Colorado, USA. Lumierre is among the best hotels in Telluride and perfect for a couple looking for an intimate getaway during the cold months. It is all about style and service deluxe when you stay in Lumiere.</p>
<h3>Annupuri Lodge in Japan</h3>
<p>You might worry about the distance if you are from the Americas or Europe but the Annupuri Lodge in Hokkaido is a perfect winter destination in Asia. It is the nearest skiing destination from Australia and you can practically ski on and ski off the lodge and enjoy all of the available amenities.</p>
<h3>Correntoso Lake and River Hotel in Argentina</h3>
<p>This hotel is located just a few hops away from the Correntoso River leading to the Nahuel Huapi Lake. If you and your partner want to enjoy the peacefulness and the beauty of Patagonia, this is the best place to book your room. You can go kayaking, trekking, and fishing while enjoy all the luxurious facilities and amenities the hotel offers.</p>
<h3>Fairmont Le Chateau Montebello in Quebec, Canada</h3>
<p>The Fairmont Le Chateau Montebello is the biggest structure in the world made from logs. The lodge was built back in the 1930’s and was once a private resort. It is just around an hour and a half from Ottawa. Stay here and go snowshoeing or dog sledding in the vast Kenauk preserver nearby.</p>

How much spookier can you possibly get?  Nor do you have to spend a fortune or rush your time, because this event takes place during select dates throughout both September and October, in none other than Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  </p>
<p>Terror behind the Walls takes place in a former prison &#8212; you can&#8217;t get much scarier than that!  It is no wonder it is considered one of the spookiest and most macabre haunted houses in all of the United States.</p>
<p>The Eastern State Penitentiary in Pennsylvania is home to this event, and it has been the force behind the fright of all kinds of horror fans for almost twenty years.  The wonderfully grotesque and creeptastic attractions span eleven acres.</p>
<p>And for those of you with kids, there are specially designated family nights that aren&#8217;t quite so horrific!</p>

<p>Not only that, but Halloween gets a family friendly renovation in Anoka, and the tradition gets much, much bigger and much, much better every single year!  There is a Miss Anoka beauty pageant, the favorite Orange Tie Ball, a pumpkin carving contest, the Gray Ghost Run, a chili cook off, plenty of ghost tours, and the Grand Day Parade!</p>
<p>So what are you waiting for?  Why not celebrate the spookiest day of the year in a family friendly fashion, at an all but month long event packed with tons of fun!</p>

<p>One thing that you can not expect of your children is for them to be completely behaved and be very still and quiet throughout the entire trip.  It does not matter if you are dealing with babies all the way to teenagers, your children are going to be a little loud and they are not going to behave themselves the entire time – so make sure that you know that before you even leave for your trip, that way you can be prepared for it.</p>
<p>Now that you know two of the most important steps … we will post more of them in the next blog, stay tuned!</p>
