It’s kind of funny what you remember from family vacations, isn’t it? When I was growing up, we took a yearly vacation and usually visited a new location each time. I remember going to Martha’s Vineyard, Northern New Hampshire, Vancouver Canada, Branson Missouri, and Disney World just to name a few.
So far, we’ve taken LJ to the Wisconsin Dells, Chicago, and Disney World (granted, he’s been to Disney THREE times!). I’m thinking it’s time to take him somewhere new for a vacation. Trying to find a place that would interest all three of us might be a challenge.
Personally, I’m kind of leaning toward Branson, Missouri myself. I was only about three or four when I went last time (which was quite a while ago!!). We were living in Arkansas at the time, so it was not far from us at all. I have pretty vivid memories of Silver Dollar City and think it would be something LJ would like as well. Recently, I was looking through a website that features Branson attractions and was amazed at how much it has grown since I was there back in the 70’s!
So, for those of you who have been there more recently: would it be a good destination for a family vacation for two parents and a 7 year old boy? I’m wondering if it would be too overwhelming or just the right amount of busy? Advice please!

I remember family camping trips. They were so much fun.
