Authentic California: The Mid-Week Travel Cure

PASO ROBLES, Calif., April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Paso Robles, the California Central Coast's wine, food, festival and outdoor activities destination, has the therapy for America's standing as the most vacation deprived country in the world: mid-week travel.  Special mid-week-only experiences, hotel discounts, the joy of un-crowded restaurants, wineries, missions, highways and airports contribute to this therapeutic vacation approach.

"Unfortunately, Americans lead in terms of least amount of vacation time offered, or taken," said Maryann Stansfield, director of Travel Paso Robles Alliance (TPRA), an organization of hoteliers serving the Paso Robles traveler. "A BusinessWeek article cited that thirty percent of Americans use less than half their allotted vacation time. We openly recommend using the Paso Robles mid-week therapeutic approach as the cure to this American epidemic."

Savvy boomers, empty nesters, and wine connoisseurs alike make time to travel Monday through Friday to find the best travel deals. For more Paso Robles travel information visit travelpaso.com.
