Travel from sea to shining sea; by car or by plane, there's plenty to see in the good ole US of A.
Most Expensive Hotels on the East Coast
I highly recommend staying at some of the most expensive hotels on the East Coast if money is not an issue. These hotels pride themselves on customer service, architectural beauty and having a high status. Most of these hotels are very well-known due to their exclusivity and high prices for guests. You will not think twice about staying at one of these hotels due to their plush and cozy rooms, magnificent views, and accessibility to popular attractions.
Jessica HerringPublished 7 years ago in WanderBest War Memorials to Visit in the US
War memorials are incredibly common in America, and it's understandable why this is the case. We've fought in a lot of wars, many people have died, and we are a culture that tends to respect our fallen soldiers.

If you love hitting the club as much as I do, then you can't really have a vacation without an itinerary involving the best clubs. Without booking a location that has a great nightlife, my vacation would simply be incomplete.

The scary thing, though, is a lot of people are not taking into consideration the dangers present in trying to traverse this newly-made island just off the coast of North Carolina. Why is it so dangerous?
Pierre Roustan, Author of THE CAIN LETTERS and SCARY HORROR STUFF!Published 7 years ago in WanderBest Florida Beaches for Tourists
When vacationing in Florida, it may be a little tricky to decide which beach to visit. To the uninitiated, every beach seems the same. With Florida being a peninsula, it is home to a multitude of beaches along is coastline. Which to choose?
Miranda O'ConnerPublished 7 years ago in WanderAre You Ready To Be Committed?
Nestled in The foothills of a little town known as Weston, WV, there exists a place brimming with history. It's a place of sadness, madness, and the macabre. If you are a lover of history, this is a place to visit. If you are a lover of the paranormal like I am, this is a place to visit frequently. No two visits are ever the same because you learn more each time you visit. The money that is charged for these tours, goes directly into this historic landmark, and that is visible to you also. (Not sure about you, but I like seeing where my money is going.)
Serena FutchPublished 7 years ago in WanderThe Best Places to Camp In Yosemite
If you really want to get the full and immersive experience at Yosemite National Park, camping there overnight or for a couple of nights with some friends or your family is a great way to experience both the wilderness and the wildlife. When it comes to the number of total campsites at Yosemite, it is estimated that there are about 1,445 with thirteen different campgrounds to choose from. You can reserve up to 1,000 campsites in advance, which is recommended to do especially during the peak season at Yosemite, which is June, July, and August. Luckily, these campsites are freely available to the public and are filled up on a first-come, first-serve basis. You should try to reserve your campsite a couple of months in advance because one these campsites become available, they usually are booked within an hour or so of becoming available online. If you plan on staying at a campsite or campground during the weekend, you need to keep in mind that there is going to be a high level of competition for those spots. In case the campgrounds at Yosemite become full, there are a number of campgrounds near the national park that you can choose to camp at instead.
The Best Hikes in Yosemite Valley
One of the best parts about visiting Yosemite National Park is going on different kinds of hikes in Yosemite Valley. You can get some incredible views by going on these hikes through this valley. Millions of tourists come to Yellowstone every year because they enjoy the variety of hikes that are possible along with the numerous amounts of outdoor activities that you can partake in too. Most people who come to Yellowstone do not enjoy hiking so you may be able to have some peace of mind by getting away from the large crowds in the spring or summer by hiking on the trails.

A Trip to Arkansas
My kids and I went on a trip to Murfreesboro, Arkansas. We started out early in the morning before sunrise since we live in Northeast Mississippi. I chose to take Highway 82 West since it goes all the way across Mississippi, and into Arkansas. We also dropped off some computers at a friend's house in Winona, MS to be fixed while we were on our trip. What's fun about going on a trip like this is finding your way on a map, and seeing places you have never been. Not the Interstates...just regular State highways.
Juanell HopperPublished 7 years ago in WanderCreepiest Abandoned Amusement Parks in America
Amusement parks are fun!... right? While some look at the actual amusement that comes from the parks, others find it difficult to look past the creepy aspects of that come along when entering these parks. They are designed for a fun and thrilling time, but how can one focus on that if they are filled with clowns, mascots with who knows what kind of person underneath those masks, dirty toothless men running the rides, and thousands of strangers that you have never met before. And if you did not think that amusement parks could get any creepier than that, imagine walking into an abandoned one. A whole amusement park all on your own that has been rundown and rusting for years. Well, unfortunately for those who are not fans of creepy places, and fortunately enough for those who get a thrill out of visiting places like this, then do I have some destinations for you. Here are some of the creepiest amusement parts in America, after the fun ended.
Corey GittlemanPublished 7 years ago in WanderReverse Culture Shock In The USA
After being away from the United States, my home country, on and off for the past two years or so, I have dealt with the effects of ‘reverse culture shock’ when I return home. There are many long-term travelers out there who come back to their home culture experience after an extended time overseas. This is because there is a natural recovery and adjustment process but it takes time to get back into the swing of things.
