Mardi Gras to Anguilla: Spring Break from the Staff!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wake Forest chapter.

Now that we are all back to the grindstone after only a week since we relaxed at home, traveled to tropical beaches or hit the slopes, here at Her Campus we wanted to share some of the highlights of our mini-vacations. Think of it as a happy reminder of the fun times you had and of how close summer is approaching! Hope you enjoy a tour of the many places our Her Campus staff traveled to this year!

Jackie spent her SB2K11 hitting the slopes with her boyfriend out at Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Even though the winds of the wild West kept her on her toes at the peak of the mountains, she had a blast carving out the 12 inches of powder they got during the trip. This picture was taken at the base of the lake — check out the view!

Sara and her mom went to San Juan, Puerto Rico to catch some beautiful weather and relaxing beach days.  Here is a photo of the island where they went to spend the day on a catamaran snorkeling.
