Travel Tips

Well, I live in Florida so I am partial to Here! Of course there are the obvious- and expensive- Disney and Universal Studios. But there are other places here that have alot of fun things to do. Like St. Augustine. Which has a ton of very inexpensive things to do. Orlando, which has much more stuff than just theme parks, or has cheaper theme parks like Wet-N-Wild and Bush Gardens. Or Tampa which has the best Aquarium outside of Atlanta. So, my vote is go Florida, stay close to a beach and that alone could be a vacation. Source(s): http://www.ci.st-augustine.fl.us/...

Kentucky would love to have you and your family visit. We have a wonderful horse park in Lexington, national forests, and camping and hiking opportunities in places such as Cumberland Gap where you can find a waterfall and the only moonbow in the Western Hemisphere. You can tour the largest underground cave system in the world at Mammoth Cave in Cave City and, while you're there, visit Kentucky Down Under, which has animals native to Australia.

You can still catch a horse race during the spring season at Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby, the most prestigious horse race in the world. If you're interested in history, you can visit Abraham Lincoln's birthplace in Hodgenville or historic Fort Boonesborough or see prehistoric fossils recovered from the falls of the Ohio River park just across the river in Southern Indiana or see the remains of Mastodons that were attracted to the salt springs that still bubble from the earth at the Big Bone Lick state park in Union, Kentucky.

You can visit My Old Kentucky Home state park in Bardstown that inspired Stephen Foster's famous song (now our state song) or wander through the nature preserve at Bernheim Forest in Bardstown. There are a number of lakes with boating, fishing, and other recreational activities available in southern and western Kentucky, like Rough River and Lake Between the Lakes.

You can visit the Underground Railroad Museum in Maysville or the JB Speed Art Museum, the Louisville Slugger Museum, the Muhammed Ali Museum, or the Frasier Historical Arms Museum in Louisville. Louisville also has a very nice zoo and a Six Flags amusement park for the kids, and Newport, Kentucky, has a lovely aquarium.

If your kids are athletic and into skateboarding, you can visit the extreme skatepark in Louisville or hike through several parks in the city designed by Olmsted. There are also a number of concerts and ethnic festivals (free) through the summer.

And most everything is priced within the confines of a family budget. So visit the bluegrass state and learn why Kentucky is known for horses, history, and hospitality.
