Tonight on the Travel Channel, a new Samantha Brown series will premier.  The series is called ”Passport to Great Weekends.” After viewing some previews on YouTube, it looks like a very fun show to watch. I wish I wasn’t out of town so I could DVR it, but I’ll be sure to record it on it’s next airing. 

In this series, Samantha will explore fun destinations that would make for great weekend getaways.  I’m proud to say the great state of Texas will be featured – The Broken Spoke in Austin.  Also on her list so far are Vegas, Boston, South Beach, and New York. She will continue to travel across the country, Mexico, Canada, and Europe. I love the idea of being able to take weekend vacations so I will for sure be checking out Samantha Brown’s new series. 

Tonight’s shows will begin at 10 PM EST and will appear in the following order (from The Travel Channel):

10PM EST:  Las Vegas - Sam’s been to Las Vegas before, but on this weekend trip she’s decided to throw caution to the wind. She unleashes her inner sexy with the Pussy Cat Dolls, tends bar at the Double Down, and lives life at 165 miles per hour in the Las Vegas fast lane.  (will reair at 11PM, June 27 at 2AM EST and 8:30 PM EST)

10:30PM EST: Austin – Though Sam’s been to Austin before, this time she’s going on a musical vacation and is determined to get the song of the city under her skin. Along the way, she’ll discover the city truly dances to the beat of its own drum. (will reair at 11:30 PM, June 27 at 2:30 AM EST and 8:00 PM EST)
