I found out this week that I’ve taken so little vacation so far this year that I have to take at least three days in the next couple of months or lose it. So we’ve been thinking about where to go. One destination for us where we’ve been several times is Niagara Falls. We were there a few years back for a summer vacation and it was a lot of fun.

It was the first time our girls had ever been there and we spent the day looking around, visiting the falls, and then having dinner at the local Rainforest Cafe. And in August, when summers are the hottest here in Maryland, heading as far north as possible is always a good idea.

Of course, you Google various things and look for help to find hotels and activities, especially now that we have kids. One site that has been helpful isTrusted Tours & Attraction online travel guides. They cover several destinations of interest to us. They show quite a few fun things to do in New York as well as things to do in Orlando. Madame Tussauds tour also looked interesting. I noticed too that there’s a special promotion where you can win a $150 iTunes Gift Card by signing up for their newsletter. Bonus!
