7 Least Romantic Places For Valentine’s Day
Usually, at this time of year, I’m thinking about hearts, flowers and chocolate in sweet, loving surroundings. I can’t believe that every year I descend into embarrassing fantasy clichés, so, this year, I’m trying something different. I’ve set out to find places where you or Cupid would never think of going. Places you can immediately eliminate from your Valentine bucket list. If you have a bah-humbug attitude toward Valentine’s Day, these places are for you. And if you love Valentine’s Day and want to go to places where no one else would think of going, look no further. You can get great deals at these world-class, anti-romantic places.
Death Valley National Park, California
Because your relationships, like mine, are probably filled with extremes, you would never think of descending into a place that boasts about being the hottest, driest, and lowest place in the National Park system. Death Valley is spread over 3 million acres of wilderness and gives a whole new meeting to “taking a walk on the wild side”. Taking a love laced stroll in February will show very quickly how the park got its name. Snuggling is encouraged but only as a life saving activity.
National Museum of Funeral History, Houston, TX
Since death is a known romance killer, you are guaranteed not to meet any lovebirds at the National Museum of Funeral History in Houston, Texas. In order not to be a total bummer and downer, the museum has tried to gild the lily with their “Fantasy Coffins” display. Those among you who are open minded, might have erotic thoughts as you move towards some sexy looking toys in the Civil War section of the museum.
