Re: Road Trip Ideas Needed....

one year we did williamsburg, virginia on then on the way home did dc.

another did parts of pennsylvania including hershey park.

another did maine with a stop in boston.

my parents liked road trips when i was young and had to include something to keep my sister and i entertained. there is only so many historical sites you can see without getting bored. most hotels had to have a pool or we had to go to some entertaining amusement park.

also did niagara falls many times with stops at 1000 islands and coopestown and other state parks.

New Hampshire! Canada is too far IMO. Once we went in a road trip from NH to canada. I was 12 and miserable and bored in Canada. Totally didn't appreciate it. But loved nh bc there is so much to do with little kids.

Dh and I did a road trip to Niagara Falls and stayed on the Canadian side for a few days. We really enjoyed that trip and plan to go back with dd when she's a little older. We also took a detour and stopped in PA on the way home (near the Poconos) to visit DHs mom, so it's totally doable to include PA and Canada into one week long trip.
