No amusement park, nor Broadway shows.
The place that I enjoy spending alot of my time is Chincoteague, VA. Many say, "How boring", and that is one reason I love it soo. It isn't a tourist trap, or crowded with millions of visitors a year. Its a small hometown with a beach. You spend your mornings riding your bike, looking at the beautiful marsh filled with birds, turtles and ponies. Your afternoons are spend at the calm beach of Assateague. If your looking for a refreshment stand.. not going to find it..
My family of 6spent 7 days on Chincoteague island.
And yes we have teenagers!! 4 of them.
Did they complain they had nothing to do??? Nope! The only complaint came the day we had to leave. Yes my car is full of sand, but more importantly it is full of family memories.

My friend Bob Carney said it clearly in his blog "friday-foto-is-for-fond-memories".
"Family..... Cherish them"
