But the New York New York casino is an exact size replica of the city of New York! :D.
|
I lived southeast of seattle for 5 years. Just east of the metro area is the greenest and lushest area I've ever seen. i would go there in the summer ..
|
Ripley's Believe It or Not sounds like a great place to visit. I'll have to try it. Thanks for the suggestion..

[quote]Washington, DC and The Smithsonian is weeding itself out of the choices because of cost.[/quote]
When you look at the cost involved, don't forget that entrance to all of the Smithsonian sites is FREE. I know Washington is a bit more expensive than some of the places you mentioned, but this might make the difference. And if the children haven't been there before, then the experience will be great for them. You can add the Capital Building and other places in DC to the list as well as Mount Vernon which isn't too far away.
One note, the new Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center. This is located outside of DC near Dulles Airport. The museum entrance is free, but it costs $12.00 for parking. (At least it did, it may be more now.) However, this is the cost per car, so with four people this is the same as it would be if the entrance fee was $3.

I've only been to Disneyland, and I have to say that was a great time. My husband and I went for our honeymoon. We stayed at a hotel within walking distance of the park to save on shuttle fair and went during the week. Of course, even though it was during the week, it was still surprisingly busy. But with the fast passes, you just go do something else, come back, and you can get into your favorite rides without too long a wait.
If there is something in particular you are looking forward to doing, you may want to check with the park ahead of time, as some rides are closed for maintenance. Sadly, we missed the Pirates of the Caribbean boat ride, which was something we were looking forward to. But all in all, a great experience..

if you really want to enjoy the Brian Head Peak, go in the winter time and ski down it!!
The Brian Head peak is only available to very experienced skiers, and does not have a lift that goes there. You have to hike a little bit to get to the top, but it is WELL WORTH the ride down!!
If you are coming to Iron Country, make sure you hit up zion national park and bryce canyon national park

people need to stop being afraid of utah. It isn't what you'd think. You can still buy beer at the store, and there is a bar in every town just like the rest of the world.
It is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and the people are quite friendly..

I recommend Southern Utah if you are traveling around the west.
You can hit Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, Moab etc all in a few days.
It is the best from March-October, and amazing for any backpackers/campers/National Park hoppers/etc
For any info, pics or advice, email me at elderburgess@gmail.com

I'm trying to figure out what historic site to visit first with my family. In what order do you rank Colonial Williamsburg, Biltmore Estates, Tryon Palace in New Bern, Historic Charleston and The Smithsonian as historic attractions, and why? Thanks!.

[quote]I was thinking of doing it a day, as we already have the hotel booked in Vegas, so would be paying for two hotels. A long day I guess![/quote]
Wolfboy, LV to the Grand Canyon (south Rim) is about a 5/ 6 hour drive. If you're just planing on a day trip, then you're going to have to leave before the crack of dawn and arrive back in Vegas after midnight. *yawning*
Thnk about checking out and checking back in your hotel. This is suppose to be a fun trip not an endurance test. :wink:.

Since there are two separate Vegas threads, here is my answer for those just checking this one:
Depending on what you are looking for, these are my favorites.
Imperial Palace - for affordable room prices and great location right in the center of the main strip
Luxor - for their pyramid rooms with the jacuzzis right next to the window so you can see out onto the strip while relaxing
Bellagio - if you have the money, definitely the most lovely rooms
Sahara - for super affordable room prices and better if you are interested in the old town Vegas strip
Caesar's Palace - mid to high end rooms, great location in the center of the main strip, and close to the best entertainment areas.

I moved this from the Canada forum to the USA forum for you -- you'll probably get more responses this way. :wink:
If you like tapas, then check out [url=http://www.toro-restaurant.com/]Toro[/url]. You may have to make a reservation before you leave home. I haven't been there but a chef that works where my wife works went and he said it was great. (I do not know how expensive it is.)
Two areas to check out:
1) Quincy Market, lots of bars and restaurants in with all the shops
2) The North End, lots of Italian restaurants, bars, bakeries, shops, etc.
And there is lots more, so if you have certain types of restaurants you are interested in, let us know and hopefully someone will have a suggestion..

One of the best things I love in the fall is the change of colors in the trees and the fresh air to breathe. Unfortunately, so do a lot of other people. If you ask someone from out of the area where the best place to view the fall colors is, they may tell you it's along the Mohawk Trail in the Berkshires or somewhere near Mount Greylock. That may be true but since this information is widely known, the peepers from out of state tend to flock there.
My favorite place to go is to one of Massachusetts' ghost towns....(Massachusetts has a ghost town..what!?) When the Quabbin Reservoir was built back in the 1930's to provide drinking water to Boston, 4 towns were told that they would cease to exist and everyone needed to move out. The buildings and roads were razed and after the dams were built, the valley towns soon began to fill with water.

For us sedona was all about the trails if you like hiking and again depending on the temps. We were there in January, some snow but great coinditions. People talk a lot about Pionk Jeep Tours, we did not sue them beacause my back gets sore with a lot of bumps, and my wife thinks you have to hike, mechanical is cheating..
