When going away in Winter, it is a good idea to choose a destination where you can do plenty of sightseeing. It can be done in rain or sun, so it does not matter about it being winter. Just make sure everyone is wrapped up warm, as you will be out all day looking around at everything. Choose a city such as New York or Rome, where there is stuff to do inside, as well as out. As this article says, Rome is a delightful place to visit December till February, since it will be less crowded than normal and everything is still open. A lot of the hotels offer lower prices during the winter months.
