Help! I’m Going to Charlotte

I am so excited that I have a few trips in the books for later this summer. There is nothing like having something to plan and look forward to and after 2020 I appreciate it so much more.

One of the trips that I have coming up in late July, is a long weekend in Charlotte for a good friend’s baby shower.

While the main point of the trip is to shower my friend and her future baby, I can’t help but take advantage of a great flight deal and spend a total of 4 days in North Carolina.

Fortunately for me, I will not be exploring alone. I have convinced my good friend to come with me for the long weekend. Although she will not be attending the shower, we still have multiple days we need to pack in as much fun as we can.

So what do we have booked so far?

Flights

• We took advantage of cheap flights on Allegiant Airlines. We purchased roundtrip flights from St.Pete/Clearwater to Concord which is located 20 minutes outside of downtown Charlotte. For only $130 per person with a purchase of a carry-on we thought this was a steal. However we will have to suffer through a 7:00am flight to get there. But thankfully this provides us an extra full day in the city as we will be arriving early Thursday morning and leaving Sunday afternoon.

Airbnb

• Since it is just the 2 of us we have decided to book a small Airbnb in a great spot in downtown. We are staying on the South End and from what we have heard and what I have briefly experienced this is a great location within walking distances to tons of great food and other activities.

While we are just in the beginning stages of planning, I need help from all our friends here at B!tches Be Tripping for your top food, bar, and activity recommendations.

So what do you got?
