I grew up in asheville, nc and now live about 3 hrs away so my ideal day trip would be back to the mountains, especially this time of the year as the leaves change and transforms the mountains so majestically.

I’m from Cleveland, and I love to go to the Cleveland Metroparks for a day trip! We have miles and miles of parkways here there are beutiful and fun to explore! It’s great!

hello !!
The answer to your question is easy ! For a day trip, i’d go to Disney World ! I think it’s very romantic to be childish sometimes, and you can never get bored at a place like that !

I’m really lucky since I live in Niagara Falls Canada. I really don’t have to go far for a day trip since there are many beautiful areas close by. My favorite is a walk/window shop/lunch day in Niagara-On-the-Lake.

I live in Victoria, Australia, and my favourite day trips are always driving to the coast. The best ones are when there’s a picnic, and family and friends will come along, and everyone will swim and laugh and talk and then it will get dark and we’ll stick around anyway.
I’d like to go on a day trip like that again, next summer!

What a fantastic giveaway! Who doesn’t love to travel!?
We live around MD, so there are some truly great parks and hikes around here! I keep trying to go biking along the C&O canal into Georgetown, but it never quite works out. Maybe winning this would give me the perfect excuse!
October 23, 2009 at 9:59 am
My day trip would have to be to Cumberland Gap,Ky.,on the Tn. border.It is such a beautiful drive,thru the small towns,curvy roads,and the most glorious fall colors that surround you the entire trip.I tweeted you as opalbaker.

My ideal day trip would have to be in Scotland, just roaming around and taking in the fresh air. I’ve never been to, but it looks beautiful and would be a very welcome change from the noisy, crowded city.
October 24, 2009 at 8:28 am
For a day trip we like to go to the lake and have a picnic and swim, thanks.

What’s your ideal place to go for a day trip? – Mine would be the beach. Obviously weather permitting… I’d prefer it to be hot, nice and sunny… perfect for swimming. There is nothing better!

a good option for a day trip.
Thanks for the contest.
October 26, 2009 at 1:29 pm
We live in Houston, so a great day trip is to Galveston. There is so much to do there. There are many great restaurants, of course the beach, shopping on the Strand. There is a water park and an Aviation Museum as well as Moody Gardens. It’s a great place to spend the day or longer.

If you live in New York City, a nice day trip is to take the Metro North train to Cold Spring, NY. It’s such a cute, quaint little town on the Hudson River. Main Street has adorable little stores and the atmosphere is beautiful during the fall when the trees are turning colors. It’s worth the trip.
October 27, 2009 at 5:15 am
My ideal place to go for a day trip is the park. I love to picnic there in the summer. In the winter I love to look at the beautiful snow!
October 29, 2009 at 7:47 pm
I love to go to St. Augustine and see the site
October 30, 2009 at 12:10 am
My ideal day trip is to go to Wilmington, NC. I’m definitely a city girl, but this town is so cute and homey- I love it so. And, it’s a darn easy day trip as 1) they have their own airport so I can direct fly from NYC and 2) the airport is so small you can actually park at the curb, go inside, help your visitor (me) get her luggage, and come right back out to load your car. First class. And, my dear, dear friend lives there, I can shop at Edge of Urge, there’s bomb ice cream by the river, and the beach is right there, too. You all want to go now too, right?

Charlotte,NC which is two hours away for some shopping with my baby girl who lives there with her hubby. I really miss having her closer to home.:(
November 2, 2009 at 2:43 pm
I live in Maryland, and I love a road trip to Atlantic City, NJ (just about 2.5 hours away) for a day of shopping, eating and gambling beside the ocean. I stay off the highways, take the backroads, and turn the radio WAY up!
November 3, 2009 at 11:45 am
I live in WI, so my favorite day trip is to the Mall of America in MN. There is so much to do and see. Even if you don’t find a lot to buy (which is highly unlikely), it’s great people watching.

When I lived in the San Jose, California I used to love to go with my best friend to San Francisco for a day trip. It was something we did every summer. We would go to pier 39 and have lunch and then take a walk into town where we would do some shopping. Our favorite was China town where we would buy Chinese candy and fresh crab. Of course, we’d finish the day by heading home and making crab dinner.

I’m about two hours from Los Angeles, so a trip up there for a comedy show or even just to wander around and see all the excess is fun.

We live a few miles from The Weeki Wachee State Park, Weeki Wachee, FL. The paths through the park are wonderful subtropical forest. I just saw a grey Macaw African parrot around there. Someone must have lost their pet. The African grey parrot is originally from Africa, however they have spread throughout the world due to people wanting them as pets, it is also know as one of the most intelligent birds due to its abilities to recognize objects, color and its ability to learn words and phrases.
