Looking for suggestions for summer vacay
Hello,
We are looking for some suggestions for our family vacation this summer. We are a family of four, 2 adults (in mid 40s) and 2 kids, 14 and 10. Kids are very well traveled.
We have 7-8 days in late July.
We live in NJ. Budget is pretty flexible.
So far, considering Canadian rockies. But want few more choices.
We are not looking for beach vacation, preferably US or Canada.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks !
Kush

Thanks for the responses !
Been to New England area multiple times. Not into fishing
African Safari is def on our list , but not enough time on hand this year. Don't want to squeeze in just one week.
Indonesia is too fat to fit in one week too
Still toiling with Canadian Rockies idea.
Any other thoughts ?

If you're thinking about the Rockies, consider taking the train across Canada one way - fun for the kids, great scenery, and you can spend time in Vancouver and/or Montreal as well as the Rockies. Get off in Jasper and rent a car, then get back on a later train.

No, to Via Rail, the Canadian version of Amtrak (only better). The Rocky Mountaineer is out of my price range.

Hey Kush
This article has some pretty cool and original family vacation ideas, you might find some ideas in it bit.ly/Top10Vacations.
I know I'm always trying to come up with new stuff to do, though we always just end up back in Whistler for the most part cause it's close to where I live and, well, it's hard to go wrong with a place that beautiful I've been working on some plans for this summer too though and I thought some of the ideas in the article were cool. I really liked the idea of checking out small towns, something maybe out of the ordinary When we took our kids to Europe I swear our favorite places were the little towns Anyway, maybe it'll inspire you! Good luck

Hey again Kush! No prob We are heading to Whistler just this Saturday in fact If you ever do get up there I guarantee you will not be disappointed!!! ... well unless you are there when it's pouring rain We go up for skiing/boarding in the winter and downhill biking/hiking in the summer. It's pretty awesome. I totally want to explore more up north of the village at some point, there's apparently awesome natural hotsprings somewhere near Pemberton that you can hike in to.
Anyway, like I said, that's really my go to so I know the most in that area. I grew up in Alberta so skied near Banff at Sunshine and Lake Louise as a kid. I really love the mountains ... but I think I do need to come up with some more ideas for my family trips Hence I have been looking up stuff on it! My kids are teens now and I feel like I have to cram as much in as I can in the next few years before they leave the nest Loving these types of forums and all the great articles that I'm finding, sure helps get the ideas going
