From Teresa Plowright, your Guide to Family Vacations
A few weeks ago, I mentioned I'd soon have more about Disney's new resort, Aulani, being built on the west coast of Oahu; so if you've been wondering what the Aulani will look like, and what a Disney resort in Hawaii will be like, read on below.

Disney's Hawaii Resort, Aulani - Photos, Details
Disney's Aulani Resort has a beautiful spot on a lagoon with gentle beach; a striking open-air lobby; a waterplay area, waterslide, snorkeling lagoon; spa; Grand Villa suites -- everything, in short, expected at an excellent resort. But that's just the start: the aim is also to do a superlative job connecting to Hawaiian culture, through art, through details, through an interactive game... (Wondering if Mickey will be there? At character dining, definitely; and in some playful touches. Mickey's a tourist here, too. But the resort is dedicated to Hawaiian details.)

Labor Day Weekend Special Events
Motor City has a Labor Day Parade, a town in Virginia has an annual "grape stomp", Orlando has the "Tom Joyner Family Reunion" big bash... check out these and other special events for the last long weekend of summertime.

New England - Fall Foliage
Yes, it's sad to say good-bye to summer; but maybe not quite so sad in New England, where another prime season for visitors will soon start up: Nature's annual fall foliage color show.

Family Fun Places
Fun places to visit with kids: theme parks, resorts with water parks, kids' museums, corn mazes, Cirque de Soleil and Build-A-Bear and and Blue Man Group, children's festivals, vertical wind tunnels, and lots more fun places.
