USA Inspiration for summer trip !
So we are off to Disney,Universal next year but have nothing planned for this year. We have annual leave from 20th July for 2 weeks give or take and I would really like to go somewhere is the USA but no parks , I dont mind last minute as we have done this many times before but I have absolutely no idea where to go . There will be me DH and 8yrs old daughter . My daughter would love the beach but we are not stuck to 2 weeks on a sun lounger would prefer things to "do" , dont mind some driving have done New York so ideally not there . Can anyone offer some inspiration of where we can go , ideally not massively expensive and not too much planning as we have only a few weeks to go !
Thank you in advance for any inspiring thoughts

If you want to stick to the east coast then Boston or Washington could be good options.
Atlanta is another (especially if anyone is into The Walking Dead series). You could also from there go up to the smokee Mountains. Further afield then the West coast where you have so much to choose from. You could do the LA San Diego SoCal areas which can give a mix of beach and other things to do. There are smaller theme parks you could do there (Disney is 2 days, Universal 1 etc). You could do San Francisco, Yosemite national Park, down the Pacific Coast Highway to LA (or through Death Valley to Las Vegas) South you could do New Orleans, Nashville etc. Just some ideas. |

Not USA but Canada? Fly into Montreal, there is lots to do in Quebec including lakes, whales and parks! One of my favourite places!

Stop and visit some of the National Parks. You can fly into Las Vegas and visit the Utah parks-Bryce and Zion, Or into Boston and drive up the coast to Arcadia National Park
You can combine a trip to Philadelphia with the New Jersey shore or Washington DC is great-Federal museums.attractions are free and you can get a room for a reasonable rate just outside of the city and take public transportation into the city. If you need some sun and sand Maryland and Delaware have nice beaches. Personally, I would look for flights for a decent fare and then plan your vacation. |

Maybe consider Canada, as the pound is stronger against the Canadian dollar than the US dollar, and its a wonderful country. They have some ideas for multi centres or self drives on here - canadiansky.

I’ve just landed in Texas (well...yesterday, currently wide awake at 3am) and it’s amazing...we flew direct from Manchester with Singapore and honestly I’d come again just for the flight, it was fab and cheaper than a flight to Orlando.
Can’t tell you much about Houston as we drove over to San Antonio straight off the flight but goodness this place is so pretty! Horse riding in the hills today if I’m not asleep by then 💤 |
