   Ok, on spring break my family and I are going on vacation. Pretty much we are open to anywhere in the US. We have no idea where to look. Lol. So does anyone have any suggestions?

Well, Colorado is beautiful, that's my pick. But the spring break scene is always in Florida, which is another good choice.

    Preferably not around beaches. Something with maybe mountains and a theme park around. With lots of roller coasters. And a lot of stuff to do in the town or city as well.

    Well Orlando has Disney World, Sea World, and Universal Studios, but no mountains.  You could try an amusmant park in Ohio called Cedar Point, I don't know where exactly it is, but it has the most roller coasters in the USA. It's also near the Appalachian Mountains.  There is a small tourist city in Tennesee called Pigeon Forge. You can stay in the several hotels in the area, or if you have the money, you can rent a cabin in the mountains just outside town. Pigeon Forge is located near Dollywood, which is some kind of amusmant park owned by a country singer. In town there are thrill rides, mini-golf, go-karts, laser tag, etc, etc. Those are a few places I can think of.

    EDIT:  

    Chicago is nice too, it might be a bit chilly, but it has all the attractions, like Navy Pier, The Sears Tower and Hanc.ock center, several famous museums, Michigan Ave., and Six Flags is nearby.

    the only thing that helps me maintain my slender grip on reality is the friendship I share with my collection of singing potatoes.

    Dollywood and Pigeon Forge are in Tennessee.


    We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

    Vegas eh? I went there for New Years. Its an awesome place, but just be careful not to lose all your $!

    -Where are you going to stay? I recommend something midway in the strip so you can spend one visit one half of the strip per day. Trust me, it saves your legs!
