Fun Places To Go



From Teresa Plowright, your Guide to Family Vacations
Some readers might be thinking, "enough with the snow" this week, and be dreaming of beaches for Spring Break - so head to "All Inclusive Resorts" below. But Spring Break is also prime-time for ski trips -- check out Sundance, one of several excellent ski resorts a short drive from Salt Lake City.

Meanwhile, my hometown Vancouver is all set for the Opening Ceremonies for the 2010 Olympics: if your family's visiting, you'll find the city full of fun free events.

Finally, if you're staying close to home this Spring Break, try a "Staycation", i.e. stay in your home area but make time to enjoy it the way visitors do.

Sundance Ski Resort
Utah not only has awesome snow, it also has easy-to-get-to ski resorts: check out Sundance Ski Resort, brought to you by Robert Redford -- just about an hour's drive from the Salt Lake City airport.

All Inclusive Resorts
Lately I've been noticing that even friends who consider themselves the type of travelers who eschew resorts have in fact been booking all inclusive resort getaways. For families, the conveniences and activities just can't be beat.

Best Free Vancouver Olympic Events
Vancouver and Whistler are all set for the Olympic Games to open this week, with many outdoor venues for big-screen viewing, free entertainment, laser light shows, and more. About.com's Guide for Vancouver highlights the best places to be, for free.

Staycation - How to Have Fun
"Staycation" doesn't just mean "we're not going anywhere this year". It's about deciding to take a real break -- and have memorable fun -- while staying close to home.
