February is the most brutal month in the Midwest because it is fully winter and cold and snowy. By this time of the year, I am sick of it. Spring is on the horizon, but there's still a long way to go.
Here are 11 places I'd rather be than in the Midwest.
1. Hawaii
I would rather be sitting on Hawaii's many beaches right now.
2. Bahamas
A cruise to the Bahamas would be ideal.
3. California
That California sunshine would feel amazing on my face.
4. Cancun
Wouldn't mind escaping to a different country.
5. Florida
Anywhere in Florida sounds perfect right now.
6. Texas
Not tropical, but still warm.
7. Louisana
I've always wanted to go to New Orleans.
8. Arizona
I would do anything to see a cactus right now. Cacti = warm
9. Brazil
That view though.
10. New Zealand
Never been, but supposedly it is warm during this time of the year. But even if it is cold, at least I am not in the Midwest.
11. Dominican Republic
Palm trees for miles.
12. Jamaica
Let me just sit down in those chairs and watch the waves roll in.
13. Argentina
This looks very unique.
14. Costa Rica
Looks like a tropical paradise.
15. Tennessee
I just really like Tennessee.
16. South Carolina
It just looks like a whole lot of fun.
