Polynesian Cultural Center by Rachel So

One of the most popular vacation ideas is a trip to Hawaii. For a great family vacation spot on the island of Oahu is the Polynesian Cultural Center. It has been called the "Epcot of the Pacific". The Polynesian Cultural Center is a living, hands-on museum of Polynesian culture. Throughout the seven native villages that make up the Center, you can see various demonstrations such as how to harvest and eat a coconut or the fine art of lei making. Their Ohana Adventure provides hands-on activities and games for the kids.

You may want to plan your vacation around one of the many special events which are scheduled throughout the year like the Samoa Festival and World Fire Knife Dance Competition, the Whakataetae Maori Song and Dance Competition or the Lei Day Competition. The Polynesian Cultural Center's Ali'i Luau is one of the finest luau's in all of Hawaii.

The final trail will encompass 190 miles of beautiful coastline from Bonita Springs in the south to Pine Island Sound in the north. This area is perfect for families or anyone who wants a relaxed paddling adventure with incredible scenery and abundant wildlife.

The waters along Florida's southern Gulf coast are warm and calm. The Great Calusa Blueway Trail takes you through tranquil back bays and inlets, through nature preserves, around beautiful beaches and along barrier islands. This is a wonderful place to enjoy a cheap outdoor vacation in a sunny tropical climate without leaving the country.

For one week you can join up to twelve other volunteers for a variety of service projects in the forests of our great national parks. Following the "Leave No Trace" outdoor living skills and ethics, you will help with things like trail repair, re-vegetation, exotic plant removal and other projects. 

It's amazing how much a group of spirited volunteers can accomplish in a week. And usually there is extra time for you to explore and enjoy the surrounding forest.
