You know that feeling you get to work on a Monday morning and an overly chipper early-to-work type is chattering loudly? Well, the urge to silence her disappears when she announces you have a three-day weekend, thanks to a public holiday falling strategically on Friday.

If you're in the same situation this week, we've listed easily accessible, fun destinations that can be enjoyed over three days. And who better to take off with than the woman you barely spend time with thanks to work, friends, husbands, kids (hers and yours!), your mother dearest. It is long enough for some real quality time, and short enough to prevent killing each other. So get ready, set, and pack for some mommy-and-me vacation time.
