San Antonio Travel Giveaway ($950 Value)

I always have a running list of travel destinations I'm plotting to visit. It makes my family's life tricky, as I stockpile books, movies, magazine articles and knowledge about each place on my "bucket" list. Lately, I've been daydreaming about a trip to Texas. Besides the access to unlimited BBQ, I'm interested in the area's rich frontier history and its Spanish Missions. So when the San Antonio Visitor's Bureau asked whether I'd be interested in giving away a San Antonio Vacation Package to one lucky reader, I jumped at the chance!

    Well, in San Francisco, I think the BEST family activity is the California Academy of Sciences...who doesn't love a planetarium, aquarium (complete with albino alligator Claude) and Living Roof of thousands of species all rolled into one? Though in such a family-friendly city, it is hard to pick just one activity...

  2. Heather McDonough on May 14, 2010 at 6:04 a.m.

    I live in Richmond, Virginia, and I can say that one of the most popular things to do on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon here would be to visit the Carytown shopping area for great food and quirky little shops.

  3. Randy on May 14, 2010 at 6:45 a.m.

    In Flemington, New Jersey, we have Northlandz - the worlds largest model railway. It is tons of fun for kids of all ages!

  4. Michele Rae Pettit on May 14, 2010 at 6:46 a.m.

    Just got back from a long weekend in Chicago... Lincoln Park Zoo, free! smaller zoo is great for toddlers & preschoolers, you can come and go to nearby beach, restaurants & shopping at N. Ave & Armitage Ave. Chicago Children's Museum on Navy Pier is the perfect thing to do w/ a 1 & 2 year old on a rainy day (they even put my daughter's clothes in the dryer after she got a little too enthusiastic at the waterworks exhibit). Sunday brunch at Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba (spanish tapas in Lincoln Park) was surprising kid friendly, loud enough, great kids menu, even gave them wiki sticks along with the normal crayons, and because the tapas come quickly and throughout your meal there's always something on the table to eat and share.

  5. Darcie - Such The Spot on May 14, 2010 at 7:20 a.m.

    Out here in the Old Pueblo (Tucson, Az) one of the most family-friendly activities would be visiting the Tucson children's museum. Or the Saguaro National Park. Be sure to stop by El Charro Cafe after, where they offer $2 kids meals and some of the best Sonoran Mexican food around!

  6. Sara Phillips on May 14, 2010 at 9:50 a.m.

    Walla Walla, WA has great family-friendly places - Fort Walla Walla, Whitman Mission and the city park! They also have Iceburg (a milk shake place) and it's SOOOOO GOOD!! :)

  7. Cindy Dawkins on May 14, 2010 at 9:50 a.m.

    Here in San Antonio Texas there are so many activities for children. The San Antonio Zoo is an awesome place to visit. I also like to take my grandchildren to the San Antonio Children's Museum, it is a hands on museum for the kidos.

  8. Sara Phillips on May 14, 2010 at 10 a.m.

    I entered a restaurant for extra entry #1.

  9. ShootingStarsMag on May 14, 2010 at 1:33 p.m.

    I live near Cincinnati so we have the theme park King's Island that is always worth visiting if you like to swim, ride rides, etc.

  10. Steve Hendry on May 14, 2010 at 3:03 p.m.

    This would be so much fun.

  11. Bridget Smith on May 14, 2010 at 3:25 p.m.

    It's a little known fact that Frank L.Baum wrote the Wizard of Oz in Coronado. Apparently the library there has a stained glass window depicting Dorthy and her friends. On my "bucket list" this summer is to watch the movie, then visit Coronado to take a peak.

  12. rose r on May 14, 2010 at 4:04 p.m.

    I live outside of Boston, MA and the Freedom Trail is a great thing to do when visiting -- and it's free! Thanks

  13. nicole on May 14, 2010 at 4:05 p.m.

    The Black Bayou Wildlife Refuge near my house is really nice to go hiking through and bird watch.

  14. Chris (Amateur Traveler) on May 14, 2010 at 4:13 p.m.

    I have only been to Texas on business and have never been to San Antonio. I would love to get there. I have read more than one book on the Alamo and the war for Texas Independence.

  15. Roblyn Honeysucker on May 14, 2010 at 4:21 p.m.

    The Bluebonnet Swamp is a great family-friendly place to visit in Baton Rouge, LA. It has night-time swamp walks and a nature center.

  16. Diane Baum on May 14, 2010 at 4:33 p.m.

    In Michigan near my house we have the Henry Ford Museum, Greenfield village, Frankemuth (our own German village) and five beautiful great lakes with sandy beaches.

  17. Annette D on May 14, 2010 at 5:54 p.m.

    I live just outside of Houston, Tx and there are lots of fun things to do in the area. I would highly recommend taking a trip to NASA in Clear Lake. They have a great tour and lots of fun things for kids to do and see.

  18. Kari Lockwood on May 14, 2010 at 8:27 p.m.

    In Highland Village, Texas (north of Dallas - close to Lewisville), I highly recommend visiting the Shops at Highland Village. This is an open-air shopping center with several great restaurants (Patrizio's, The Blue Goose, etc...), a large Barnes & Noble bookstore, many clothing stores, several spas, Bath & Body Works, Nestle Tollhouse, and much more. Our favorite thing to do is have lunch on the patio at Patrizio's and watch families play around the beautiful fountain in the center of the shopping center.

  19. Nicholle Natividad on May 14, 2010 at 8:32 p.m.

    I live in Simi Valley and one of the best things to do out here is to go to the Ronald Reagan Library.. Who would want to miss the experience of being able to walk through Air Force One view a piece of the berlin was that was brought down. You can also have lunch there while looking over the beautiful valley.

  20. Tari L. on May 15, 2010 at 3:57 a.m.

    Living in the Philadelphia area there is plenty to do for all ages. My children enjoy visiting the SS New Jersey.

  21. Amber G on May 15, 2010 at 5:40 a.m.

    I'm from Chicago and Navy Pier is a great attraction to bring the family to!

  22. simone on May 15, 2010 at 7:01 a.m.

    In Austin, Zilker Park is a surefire win with kids. Acres of land to run on, Barton Springs for swimming, ducks to feed below the pool and a canoe if you are brave, not to mention the great playground, train, and snow cones. You really can't go wrong. Thanks! thebubbledies(at)gmail(dot)com

  23. Diana on May 15, 2010 at 7:39 a.m.

    I visited San Antonio as a teenager and would love to go back. We don't have a River Walk in Baltimore, but we do have the Inner Harbor with shopping, restaurants, the National Aquarium, the Science Center and numerous other attractions

  24. Susan Bentley on May 15, 2010 at 7:39 a.m.

    In the Fort Worth area there is so much to do. However, our favorite "get away/hideaway" is the Eagle Mountain Park on Boat Club Road. Chilren can learn about native plants to teh area, look and take pictures near the "town", and families can take one of many dirt hiking trails. We took our jogging stroller, got muddy, yet enjoyed teh terrain, fresh air, overlook of the lake, and beauty of the animals. Bikes are not allowed.

  25. Janet Turner on May 15, 2010 at 7:54 a.m.

    I live in San Antonio, so I know that kids love the Witte Museum here. It has different exhibits and hands on activities for all kids!

  26. Annette Doggett on May 15, 2010 at 10:17 a.m.

    I recommended a restaurant in San Antonio that is kid friendly.

  27. Heidi Cavaness on May 15, 2010 at 12:17 p.m.

    In Middleton, WI is the Mustard Museum with lots of fun. Kids can learn Poupon University (Poupon U) songs and activities.

  28. carol wilson on May 15, 2010 at 1:01 p.m.

  36. Autumn Daughetee on May 15, 2010 at 3:41 p.m.

    Whenever I have someone visit me in Fort Worth, I take them to see a Fort Worth Cats minor league baseball game. I also make sure we go down to the Stockyards to see the Fort Worth Herd, a herd of longhorns that is herded through the Stockyards twice a day.

  37. wolvie72 on May 15, 2010 at 4:30 p.m.

    These are all over the place. red Robin is super family friendly. Almost to the point where you don't want to go on a weekend afternoon, unless you have kids too.

  38. Marianna on May 15, 2010 at 6:04 p.m.

    I live in a very small, rural town in Mississippi - but we have a wonderful state park here that has walking trails, a large lake, a rustic stone lodge, a large playground area, tons of picnic tables and often hosts family-friendly activities (lats weekend was a "Kids n Katfish" fishing rodeo complete with prizes). It is locally known as Palilla - or Legion State Park, MS

  39. Suzanne Stocker on May 15, 2010 at 6:57 p.m.

  42. Traci T on May 15, 2010 at 10:42 p.m.

    In DFW area, the State Fair is not to be missed in Sept/Oct

  43. Toni Trainor on May 16, 2010 at 5:01 a.m.

  44. Jayme Pingrey on May 16, 2010 at 5:33 a.m.

    In Columbia, MO, we are big fans of the YouZeum, a science-y museum aimed at kids. We are also fans of Stephen's Lake park :)

  45. Tricia Andrews on May 16, 2010 at 10:01 a.m.

    If driving I-85 in the Greenville/Spartanburg SC area be sure and stop at the BMW North America Manufacturing Plant. They have a very nice Museum/gift shop. If you plan ahead you can take a walking tour (appt only) where you can see BMWs made from beginning to end. VERY INTERESTING!!!

  51. Aaron on May 16, 2010 at 1:42 p.m.

    I recommend visiting the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. It truly is impressive, even if you're not a sports fan. Right next door is the Texas Rangers Ball Park, Six Flags Amusement Park, Hurricane Harbor Water Park, and Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum.

  52. Sarah Z on May 16, 2010 at 1:46 p.m.

    My son would love this trip. San Antonio is his first pick for a vacation!

  55. Jacob on May 16, 2010 at 3:21 p.m.

    This would be so great! I love San Antonio! One great place in the Oklahoma City area is called Pops. It is a soda place that has every type of soda know to man. You can buy bottles of anything in almost any flavor and they sell them in the classic glass bottles! It is really cool!

  65. Joy Bennett on May 16, 2010 at 4:57 p.m.

    Brownsville, TX has the Gladys Porter Zoo. A very nice zoo with convenient parking. Best to go in the cooler months as it is extremely hot in the summer.

  66. Amber Walter on May 16, 2010 at 5:31 p.m.

    We live in San Marcos, TX, about 45 minutes north of San Antonio. The best thing to do in our small town is to head to the river. The San Marcos river is spring fed and a crystal clear. It is a constant 72 degrees year round. We love to bring some inner tubes and float the river with our family. It's perfect for a hot Texas summer.

  67. Kellie Prinz Johnson on May 16, 2010 at 6:02 p.m.

    Phil's Icehouse in Austin, TX has GREAT burgers, outside dining including an awesome playground and is right next to Amy's Ice Cream. It's the perfect place for a play date or a family outing.

    The Houston Zoo is GREAT for families all over with many large parks and museums within walking distance to the zoo and attractions including a large Koi pond, paddle boats, Albino Alligators, the all time favorite train (great for kids and adults) very fun. Hermann Park is great (right next door to the zoo) with a large play ground with awesome play ground equipment your children or even you are guaranteed to love it

  70. Joannie on May 16, 2010 at 7:13 p.m.

    In Brownsville, we have the Gladys Porter Zoo which is an amazing, fun place for families.

  71. Lisa Mills on May 16, 2010 at 7:47 p.m.

    If you're ever in Raleigh with small children, you don't want to miss a visit to Pullen Park. The kids will love the playground and the boat rides. Our favorite though is the carousel.

  72. Chris N on May 16, 2010 at 8:54 p.m.

    I live in Carrollton, TX, and near us is a great minor league ball team, the Frisco Roughriders. They have a beautiful ballpark and a fun experience.

  73. Sarah V. on May 16, 2010 at 10:19 p.m.

    As a resident of San Antonio, my favorite kid-friendly activity is the Missions National Historical Park. The mission churches are gorgeous, and it's a wonderful place to take lots of pictures.

  74. Jenna Wood on May 16, 2010 at 11:11 p.m.

    The closest thing to me which is family friendly, affordable, and extraordinary- would be Hearst Castle. It makes for a great day trip, or even a weekend trip. The sights are amazing, there are hours of amusing tours, and the kiddos can see Zebras on the side of the road as you drive up!

  75. Chacoy on May 17, 2010 at 2:26 a.m.

    I live in a small town in Utah in which we are famous for our Dinousaur Museum with found artifacts and petrogliphs and dinosaur bones. It is one amazing attraction. I have lived here my whole life and it's the same museum and you still learn something new or see something new everytime you go!
    Thank you for the opprotunity!

  76. Sarah on May 17, 2010 at 4:07 a.m.

    If you come to my area, I highly recommend going to the Fort Worth Zoo -- it's so well designed and the place is teeming with fun animals!!

  80. Jenica on May 17, 2010 at 6:35 a.m.

    What an awesome prize! We live in Dallas so it would be a wonderful trip.

    As for us, my favorite local attraction is the Dallas World Aquarium! We are going there next week, as a matter of fact, and try to go a few times per year. There is just so much to see!

  82. Julie @ Practically Spent on May 17, 2010 at 7:27 a.m.

    In Madison, WI, I highly recommend the Memorial Union Terrace on the UW campus. You can enjoy the lake shore, music, eat wonderful campus-made Babcock ice cream, rent a canoe, watch the sail boat. It's bliss on a beautiful summer day.

  83. Kendra on May 17, 2010 at 8:08 a.m.

    In Philadelphia, there is a kid-friendly attraction called the Please Touch Museum, where kids are encouraged to touch the exhibits there. It is very fun!

  84. Kristy Williams on May 17, 2010 at 8:22 a.m.

    My favorite family friendly thing to do in north west Arkansas is to go hiking! Arkansas has some very beautiful trails and lots of waterfalls! We never get tired of it!

  85. Ashley Hotchkiss on May 17, 2010 at 9:22 a.m.

    I live in a small town in Southern Colorado, near Alamosa. Not many people would call the a vacation destination but there is SO much to do. There are mountains surrounding us. One of the best family activities is the Great Sand Dunes.There are many natural hot spring pools around and no lack of outdoor things to do!

  86. Ashley Hotchkiss on May 17, 2010 at 9:23 a.m.

  87. Frugal Science Gal on May 17, 2010 at 10:40 a.m.

  88. Alena Telford on May 17, 2010 at 10:59 a.m.

    In Utah there is a great place called wheeler farm. It has old historic buildings and lots of new baby farm animals, and best of all, it's free.

  89. Tanya on May 17, 2010 at 11:46 a.m.

  91. Jen on May 17, 2010 at 2:11 p.m.

    In Pensacola, we have the Naval Aviation Museum which definitely rivals the Air and Space Museum in DC. It is great to get out of the humidity and the kids will find tons to do!

  92. Sara Bolt on May 17, 2010 at 3:20 p.m.

    We live in Golden, Colorado and we have a great Railroad Museum and the Coors Brewery to tour right in our town!

    I live in Central PA. The one place I went to recently that I would recommend would be Gettysburg. The town is so cute, lots of little shops, places to eat and museums. They have tours where you can sit in your car with a little device explaining what you're looking at, just in case baby is sleeping you won't have to leave the car and still get all the info you need on the site you're touring.

    I live in Columbus, IN (an hour south of Indy) and if you're ever passing through town on I-65, you must stop and eat at Zaharako's, an original ice cream shop and soda foundtain that they have completely restored. Food and treats are great, and its right next door to a small children's museum, called KidsCommons, if your kids need to burn off all that sugar!

    As for a great attraction in San Antonio for children we always took our children to the zoo while we were there. Kids and animals aways are a great hit.

  109. Charmaine B. on May 18, 2010 at 6:29 a.m.

    I love Fantasy Lake in Hope Mills/Fayetteville, NC. Its family friendly with water park rides for everyone. They have an awesome childrens area that is only 1.5 ft deep. My 18 month is able slide down the slides all by herself. Its a great place to spend the afternoon with your children. and its reasonably priced.

  110. Tonya Filleman on May 18, 2010 at 8:16 a.m.

    I would have to say that our zoo here in Omaha is the BEST family friendly place and THE BEST zoo around. It is fantastic!

    My favorite place to go in our hometown, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is Old Salem Living Museum. It's a wonderful place where you can spend all day walking around as though you were back in time. It is a historical Moravian settlement. The best time to visit is spring or fall.

  116. Leslie Richman on May 18, 2010 at 11:13 a.m.

    Our city has a great riverfront shopping area called Antiwue Alley (West Monroe, Louisiana). It's full of great shops and eating, plus the Ouachita River is beautiful!

  117. Shannon on May 18, 2010 at 11:45 a.m.

    One family friendly activity in Salt Lake (there are tons!) is the Clark Planetarium. My two boys love it. There are fun exhibits, great shows, and a fabulous gift shop with so many fun and interesting toys. I highly recommend a visit if you are in the Salt Lake City area.

  118. Joy on May 18, 2010 at 12:10 p.m.

    We live in Seattle and anything on/near the water, specifically kayaking on Lake Union, is a great family activity (for children over about 4-5 years old).

  126. Holly Kurth on May 18, 2010 at 12:40 p.m.

    Well, if you are in San Antonio and you have an extra day to play around, go northwest of town a little ways to Bandera, TX... it's called the Cowboy Capital of the World! You'll find it is in one of the prettiest parts of the Texas Hill Country! Lush rolling hills, limestone outcroppings, over clear and pristine spring fed creeks, rivers and Medina Lake all make up the land in the area. Summer time is great fun with rodeos every weekend! There are great "dude ranches" and REAL cowboys and cowgirls galore! It's totally family friendly and only about 30 minutes outside of San Antonio.

  127. Holly Kurth on May 18, 2010 at 12:44 p.m.

    OH! And a great place to eat, NOT on the San Antonio riverwalk is in Old' Town... Mi Tierra's. Even though some people feel it is touristy, well, it is true, honest, home cooking at its best. It is a family owned business that thrives from morning until night. It is a feast for the tummy and the eyes. Kiddos love it. AND the food is super. We love breakfast there and the Carne Gisada (sp?) is wonderful! Also, they have a beautiful bakery set up too where there are beautiful colors to see and flavors to taste. It is surrounded by the El Marcado where vendors are set up to sell all kinds of goods and there is often live music. Etc. Again, VERY family friendly.

  128. Tesa S. on May 18, 2010 at 1:35 p.m.

    I live near Waco, Texas. They have a very nice zoo, The Cameron Park Zoo. Very nice for the kids, and they have water misters to keep you cool in the Texas heat of the summer.

  129. shirley f on May 18, 2010 at 1:49 p.m.

  131. Erin H on May 18, 2010 at 5:14 p.m.

    The Fort Wayne Children's Zoo is an amazing family attraction in Fort Wayne, IN. If you ever happen this way, it is well worth the stop!

  132. Emily on May 18, 2010 at 5:19 p.m.

    I'm from Washington, but I'm moving to Texas. If you you come to Spokane, we have a wonderful park called Riverfront Park, with all kinds of fun little things to walk by and see. The iconic feature is the "Garbage Goat" totally worth feeding.

  133. Kristen on May 18, 2010 at 6:43 p.m.

    There are SO MANY great things to do in San Francisco, but I think the most fun outing for kids is the Exploratorium. It's the least boring "museum" you'll ever go to because it's all about science and it's completely hands-on.

  136. Marty on May 18, 2010 at 10:44 p.m.

    By far, one of my favorite things to do is explore the foothills that surround us here in my part of CA. There's so many fun places to stop on the way to the towns of Sonora, Jamestown, Knight's Ferry--our kids are only 2, 1, and 4 months, but already we love packing into the car and taking the windy roads up towards the mountains and enjoying all the nature along the way. Free and fabulous! :)

  137. Carrie on May 19, 2010 at 2:51 a.m.

    There are tons of things in our area to do with your family. I live in Potosi Missouri, home of the YMCA Trout Lodge and Camp Lakewood as well as Sayersbrook Bison Ranch... the second largest Bison Ranch in the world! While staying at the YMCA, you can tour Sayersbrook or EdgCliff Farms Vineyard... tons of stuff to do!

    Casa Vallarta is a wonderful Mexican restaurant in Greensboro, NC. The staff is friendly and accomodating , the prices are reasonable, and the food is wonderful! It is a great place to dine with kids!

    We are in Alexandria, VA - There is a free trolly in Old Town Alexandria that we love. It runs about 30 blocks from the METRO station to the Potomac River. There is a large green space park on the river where we have a picnic and bring a soccer ball.

    I live near Cleveland, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame right next to Lake Erie is a treasure! If you are interested in seeing handwritten lyrics by the Beatles, Bruce Springsteen and many more, plus costumes like Madonna's bullet bra and David Bowie's creations; plus watching historical movie clips and checking out awesome instruments and all kinds of musical displays, make sure you stop on the North Coast this summer!

  253. Holly on May 20, 2010 at 10:20 a.m.

    I live in Chicago, and one of my favorite things to do with my little guy is to go to the Lincoln Park Zoo. It's free, which makes it nice for short visits and means I don't feel like we need to spend a lot of time there to get our money's worth!

  254. Gena on May 20, 2010 at 10:32 a.m.

    I recommend checking out Sulphur Springs in Sulphur, Oklahoma. The water comes from an underground spring and stays a crisp 58 degrees year round. Trust me, it feels great on a hot summer day.

    We just relocated to the Dallas, TX area from Des Moines, IA. We have only been here about 3 weeks. I am not that familiar with the area but there is a Six Flags amusement park not too far away. Wehave been to a great outdoor Flea market called Traders Village. The kids did enjoy that a lot.
