Orlando, Florida would sure score high on a list of such places.
Orlando has seven theme parks and four water parks. That means a lot of excitement. And a lot to explore. And well, when you are done with the exhilarating rides you can head straight for any of the nine local malls or the four outlet centers which house almost anything from any brand. This would be one shopping experience that you won't forget in a hurry. Guess after such an hectic day everyone would be ready for a sumptuous meal. Again you are spoilt for choice.
