November is a magical time of year. In fact, it might be the most magical, even more so than Christmas. After all, Thanksgiving is hands-down the best food holiday, and that’s a hill worth dying on.
November is also a lovely time to travel as well. As long as you avoid traveling during Thanksgiving, flights are relatively inexpensive if you plan ahead. Road trips are also great in November, because the vibrant fall colors are still intact in the northern states, and at their peaks in the deep South. In some places in the northeast, it has already started to lightly snow, while down south, it’s still warm yet mild.
