zoo’s footprint is pretty large, so definitely bring a stroller for younger kids or you’ll be carrying them in the Arizona heat. Tempe is home to one of these LEGOLAND Discovery Center locations in the Arizona Mills shopping center, and it was probably my 6 year old son’s favorite activity in Tempe. For visitors who can come to Tempe in the spring months, the city is right in the thick of things for Major League Baseball’s Cactus League spring training. – several of the two queen rooms at this hotel come with an additional sofa bed, making room for families of five (or in our family’s case, two kids who never can peacefully share a bed!).
If you are looking for a bit of rustic luxury with a heaping side helping of history on your next national park trip, here are 7 national park lodges to consider. But the price is more reasonable than many historic national park lodges, at about $200-250 a night in peak season for standard rooms. The Many Glacier Hotel in Glacier National Park opened in 1915 on the eastern shore of Swiftcurrent Lake, in the northeast section of the park. The cost of a few nights at many national park lodges can sometimes rival the prices of a luxury hotel like a Ritz-Carlton, especially if you are visiting during high season or a busy holiday weekend.
When my family’s travels allowed us to squeeze in a short 24 hour visit to Chattanooga, Tennessee several years ago with our kids, we jumped at the chance. Located on Chattanooga’s famous Lookout Mountain where seven states are visible, Rock City Gardens combines natural beauty (natural rock formations, gorgeous waterfalls and amazing vistas where you can see seven states) with a bit of man-made fairytale magic. If you plan to visit Rock City with little ones, be aware that Rock City doesn’t permit strollers as they would never work on the narrow and uneven paths. About 2 hours from the city of Chattanooga is the much bigger city and airport of Nashville, Tennessee.
The Disney Park Pass Reservation System adds another layer of planning to your Disney vacation. The Disney Park Pass Reservation System is an extension of Disney’s date based ticket pricing. Put simply, you now not only need to tell Disney World when you plan to visit, you also need to tell Disney which of the four Disney parks you plan to visit on each day of your trip. How to Make a Disney Park Reservation with Park Pass Guests can make Disney park reservations through the Disney website.
