Girls Getaway Guide to Key West: Leave Your Baggage at Homeby Casey Wohl has a new addition to the series of great travel books-this one is for Key West. Written as a How To for putting together vacations with "girlfriends" in mind, this book and its predecessor written for the Orlando are also terrific for couples, families and work situations-that's how complete and well done it has been put together.

Wohl lives and works in Florida, but has also traveled to 18 foreign countries and uses her own experiences of putting together girls getaways to nearly 20 different cities-so this is one lady who is definitely writing on subjects she's an expert in-this will be a series to keep track of!

What I love is that it is filled with actually useful traveling information-what hotels/motels or bed and breakfasts are the best to look into booking. Why-Casey breaks it down into price, amenities, proximities to various tourism types. You and your girlfriends love to do the spa/exercise thing-Wohl has all the information from address and phone numbers to why she and her "girlfriends" think these are the ones to look into. The group you travel with would rather take in art galleries, antiques and museums-there's a huge section on where to find all kinds.

You're into shopping for kitsch, designer apparel or jewelry and so much more, Casey has it covered.

If after all the shopping, looking or sweating you want a great place to eat a meal-it's all covered by cuisine, location and pricing (dress codes are in there as well), plus if you need to call ahead for reservations. Are you and the girls looking for the best nightlife? There's a great section there as well.

Maybe the girls weekend you're planning is one based on sports and outdoor activities-Wohl has everything from pilates and parasailing to kayaking and wine tasting covered.

Taking a trip with just your "best female friends" is a terrific way to stay connected is a fun way to let your hair down, Casey Wohl's vacation guides are filled with valuable information and tips-this time in the unique colorful island destination of Key West, better known as the "Conch Republic" (pronounced Conk-like on your head).

Girls getaways are not the usual vacation for today's woman, but they create a bonding experience like none other. Casey describes Key West as one of her favorite getaway destinations-"I've been going to this colorful city since I was a child and have watched its transformation from a cheap, touristy town to a vibrant destination filled with art, culture, outdoor activities, water sports, history, beauty, charm, shopping, dining, nightlife and so much more"

Luckily for us, her book Girls Getaway Guide to Key West: Leave Your Baggage at Homelet's us in on all the joy that the author has to share.
