You should try to ge down to around Nags Head/Kill Devil Hills/Kitty Hawk. Jockey's Ridge is great, the dunes are HUGE and lots of fun, especially if you have kids. The Wright Brother's Memorial can be great too if you're into . There's the aquarium as well. Have fun there. It's been a long time since I've been for fun, was there in May on a field trip with older DS.

Non-Disney Vacation
Thanks to our friends who are getting married July 2nd, my DH and I are headed to Hawaii this Friday for a week. I have never been and am excited to be going.
Since I have successfully DISNEY'd my husband out, I had to give up a year or two of heading to WDW. The girls and I are going to DL for four days in November, since I would have Disney withdrawal if we didn't.
It's weird, but I am still not packed and not as excited as I normally am for our WDW Vacations. For those I am packed two weeks in advance and am chomping at the bit to get on the plane and be on my way. I guess I am just a Disney Freak.
To all who come to this happy place, Welcome.

We camp on a beautiful, primitive island off the coast of Cape Cod. There are only 11 camp sites and all but one are "beach front". The camp sites are in a wooded area overlooking the bay. It is really beautiful. Actually, I am only home tonight because my son got sick - it was supposed to be our third night there tonight. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and I'm hoping we can get back there tomorrow!!! It's only a 20 minute boat ride from home but it feels like we are in paradise!!

We went to WDW in May/June and are going back in September so those are our major summer vacations but we plan to do a few weekend camping trips locally throughout the summer as well. DH has a cold so we're waiting for him to feel better before we go. After we got married we moved close to where we like to camp. This past Saturday we hiked on the Appalation (I don't know if that's spelled right...) Trail which is just a short drive away. Next summer we're planning to go to the Poconos and maybe in the Fall to NYC. It's always funny when people vacation where you live, isn't it? Like we're still only 1 1/2 hours from DC, I've been to the museums so much though!
Upcoming:
October 2013
8 nights at Pop Century with Free Dining to celebrate DS turning 4 years old!!!!

Haven't quite figured out if this qualifies as a vacation just yet ..... jumping on tour with our son's Drum and Bugle Corps in Texas to help drive the last 2,000 miles of the summer tour into Pasadena, CA for the DCI Finals week. Should be great watching the corps perform in the Rose Bowl.
Have to remember the relaxation I gathered while at WDW in May to make up the difference.

After our WDW trip in July (just two more days!), we are taking my parents to Campobello Island, Canada for three nights and then to Bar Harbor, ME for four nights. They are celebrating their 80th birthdays and 60th wedding anniversary this year, so this is our present to them.

Not too much here...
for the fourth of July, we're going to Shreveport to the Louisiana Boardwalk.
Then later in July, we'll spend about 3-4 days in Dallas to shop, watch a baseball game, and do Six Flags (DD earned a free ticket in school and insists on using it!)
Other than a day trip or two to the zoo, etc, that's about it.

We are going to Estes Park, CO at the end of August. DH used to go there every year when he was a boy so he's really excited about taking our kids to places he has been to when he was a kid.

We don't have a trip planned for this summer but we have one planned for next April. We just bought our airline tickets last night. We are flying into Key West and staying there for 4 nights then a 4 day road trip to Fort Myers, FL making stops along the way. This will be our first time going to Florida and NOT go to Disney, which makes me kinda sad. We did go to Key West before and then drove to Disney World for 4 days.

Nat'l Parks
I too am going to National Parks this summer. I have a full schedule planned including Timpanogos Cave(utah), Salt lake(utah), Arches(utah),Fossil butte(wyoming). And this fall, I hope to see Yellowstone, Rocky Mtn Nat'l park(co)and Yosemite(ca). And in the winter, the Grand Canyon(az), Mesa Verde(co) and the Great Sand Dunes(co). And maybe next spring, Mount Hood, Rainer, Mt St Helens,Crater Lake,and the Oregon Caves.
Since we are tempoarily living in Nevada for the next 9 months, I am squeezing in all I can!!

In early June I was in WA for work and stayed for a little vacation. I would highly recommend putting Olympic in your plan. Tidepools to glaciers... Nice!!!

Just got back from a week in Bar Harbor. First time to Maine... What a great time! I recommend a Puffin & Whale Watch (saw 3 humpbacks including a mother and calf) and the Wonderland trail. Just an easy trail out to the ocean's edge for tidepooling. Go when the tide is low and you'll see a lot of critters. Route 66 was a great restaurant for the kids.

Reason: almost forgot about the puffins - awesome!

We've already spent a short week in Asheville and the first week of August, we're spending a week in Myrtle Beach with my inlaws. All 65 of them!! I was afrid to go for years, because hello? 65 in-laws?? But actually, we went 2 years ago and found that it was a blast. There's too many people for anyone to really get on your nerves or boss you around.
It's actually the only real relaxing I do on a vacation, since the kids have all their cousins as playmates and their aunts to dote on them, so mom can sit on the beach and relax.
But fall 2008, it's back to WDW!

Being in France, and having visited WDW in March, we obviously couldn't enjoy a second visit this year...
So, we chose that the next best thing was to go to spain, in PortAventura, the place originally supposed to become Eurodisneyland !
Why not Eurodisneyland itself ? Because we're planning on going in January 2008, when the local Hollywood Tower opens !

Our upcoming vacation plans include:
We spent a weekend in Niagara Falls Canada in June (For father's day) and stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge.
In July we made a quick 1 night get-away to Kingston Ontario - Kingston is a beautiful town and very close to Gananoque and the 1000 Islands.
In August we have 1 week booked at a camp ground in Cobourg Ontario it is situated right on the beach of the very cold Lake Ontario, fortunately there is a pool behind it and a kids play 'n'splash area beside it.
September we are heading to WDW for 11 days!!!!!
In October we have my B-I-L's wedding at the military base, Base Borden, near Barrie Ontario (We are staying in Alliston for 2 nights).
And since we have vacation time off at Christmas, DH has suggested we head to his parents Florida home for the holidays and extend it to include a stay at WDW and he can run the marathon in January!!! This would be the last trip for awhile as DH will be starting an intense training program at work, and we will have both kids in full-time daycare for the next few months (ouch!) I don't know if this trip will happen or not.
