7 Places to Take Your Kids (Before They Grow Up)
Absolutely nothing will prepare your family for the first time you see this 227-mile-long, 5,000-foot-deep wonder of the world.

For a more relaxing, scenic tour of the area, climb aboard the Grand Canyon Railway, a steam-engine train that travels from Williams, Arizona, to the South Rim of the canyon.

I would like to second the Disney comment... and the Liberty Bell? Really? I must have gone on the wrong day because it was so crowded without any form of organization that people were literally pushing us out of the way so that they could get a closer look. I think I would save that for a school field trip or something. A picture in a book does this one just fine, too. A let-down for a family trip.
