Educate-Inn Specials - Mr. T was no fool when he advocated students to “Stay in School.” Lucky for students and educators, many innkeepers are big fans of the education system and are showing their support with appreciative specials of their own. At The Morgan Inn Bed and Breakfast in Pawcatuck, Connecticut, educators and their families can request the “April Special Educators’ Weekend” from April 12-13, 2010. The special allows all teachers, administrators, staff and help to receive free admission to The Museum of America and the Sea. Families are limited to 4 tickets. Guests must present a school/union ID or a copy of school letterhead. In addition to spending a day at the museum, guests can look forward to a full breakfast featuring eggs, pancakes or waffles, breads, muffins and fresh fruit.
Educators aren’t the only ones who can find special offers at B&Bs. At The Mark Addy Inn in Nellysford, Virginia, college students in need of an overnight study break can receive a 10% discount with a valid ID. Put away your books and forget about exams for a day or two and ask the innkeeper to arrange a hot air balloon ride. The inn is also located near many wineries and vineyards. Prefer lounging instead? Homebodies can take in a beautiful sunset on the porch or shoot a game of pool and unwind in the game room.

Lights Out - For many of us, electricity is a must-have necessity, but not for the Amish. Find out how the Amish live a comfortable life without the use of modern technology by checking into Arcola Flower Patch & Diamond House Bed & Breakfast in Arcola, Illinois. Ask the innkeeper to arrange a day trip to a typical Amish home, a dairy farm where Amish farmers will explain how they manage day-to-day operations or a guided tour of the neighborhood where you can visit local schools, businesses and homes. Guided tours also provide information on Amish family life, religious beliefs and lifestyles. If you want a full Amish experience, stay and dine Amish style. The innkeeper can make arrangements for you to enjoy a family meal inside an Amish home.
