Went to FAO Schwartz to dance on the piano like Tom Hanks did in BIG and it wasn't there anymore. I have seen a piano since in a child's museum but it just wasn't the same.

Disnee Dad Says............................................Start traveling with children as early as they can take it.

San Diego
Seattle
Victoria, Canada
San Francisco and Napa dozens of times
Yosemite
Reno a dozen times
Hawaii twice
Williamsburg and Washington DC
Mendocino
Monterray/Carmel, several times
DL four times
WDW four times

DD 13 is a world class traveler, out of all these trips the only problem we ever had was with the ears on descent a couple of times.

Even at WDW for the first time at age seven.

Can we ride that? Well if we do it tommorrow morning we won't have to wait in line. Tommorrow is good, lets go over there!

OK, a couple must do's

Alcatraz and fresh crab in San Francisco
Pike Street Market in Seattle
Seventeen mile drive in Monterray/Carmel
The poly cultural center on Oahu
The Arizona and Missouri on Oahu.
A nice luau, anywhere in Hawaii.
Any Disney park, anywhere anytime.

Lastly, if anyone comes to California to visit the wine country, visit Sonoma, Rutherford, St Helena, the only time we go to NAPA is to get auto parts!!!

The thing that we enjoyed doing was going to the Rose Parade. now that was great but going to the buildings where they were building the floats was the best. seeing all the rooms with flowers...the smells. Great!

High Tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria BC

I have done many of the things mentioned so far, but one I did that I haven't seen mentioned is watching the sun rise out of Haleakela crater on Maui, and driving the road to Hana. Or how about climbing Diamond Head.

Anyone swim in the warm srping waters at Evans Plunge in the Black Hills?

 

[Megan's Mom]

I remembered some others that are great. Dinner at the top of the Space Needle in Seattle and dinner at the revolving rest. at Niagara Falls. Both are great ways to see the area.
