I know it is a busy weekend for many, but don't forget to spend a good portion of the weekend with your family and friends. Day trips can be made in your own Town or City. Check out the directories of your city and see if a parade or celebration is happening that might be a fun excursion for your family. Kids of all ages LOVE PARADES......
We often forget the real reason why we celebrate the holiday weekend, but we really need to stop and think out the family and friends we have lost in the past and celebrate our fallen soldiers. Visit a museum, park and celebrate with them in the back of your minds.
Check out a park or visit a National Cemetery or National Monument. It will bring tears to your eyes and I can tell you one that aways comes to mind. My father is buried in a National Cemetary and when you see all the flags flying - it just gets me in the heart. I honor all of our soldiers passed and still living and serving for our country.
One of the most beautiful Celebrations that we have witnessedis when we were in Oahu and visited the National Cemetery "The Punch Bowl". What a display of Beauty on every grave decorated with Baby Orchid Leis. The Pinks and Purple just adorn the mountain side and that is something that I think all Americans should visit when visiting the islands of Hawaii.
Please be safe and enjoy your time off with your family. It is a special time and why not Travel As a Family, you might just get a Family Discount somewhere..
