Hey, it can’t all be about family vacation travel!
Choosing a car for your family isn’t a decision most of us take lightly. Whether the four wheels are used for jaunts to the grocery store or on cross-country vacation destinations, choosing the right care can be a daunting task. For some, like Discovery TravelingMom, living in a big city is reason enough to search for more compact vehicles and if you live in a city like Chicago, size does matter. 
Swimming with dolphins in the open ocean, hiking down a crater and gliding along on a Segway where cars can’t go are exciting and environmentally-friendly ways to explore Hawaii. Eco-tourism excursions allow us to enjoy and photograph pristine spots without disturbing natural areas.
Cheng-san Chen is an unassuming man, running an unassuming store that skims the edge of Harvard University's campus in Cambridge, Mass. A banner hanging on the storefront announces "Louie's Superette" is celebrating 25 years of business. But inside, this convenience store owner/clerk, code name, Louie, is a parent's secret weapon, and known by students as the "man with the electronic eyes."
There are several ways to tour a new city and while you can opt for the bus tour, keep in mind there are many different ways to stop and smell the roses these days! Walking, biking, skiing, check! Did you know you can even zipline through a rainforest? So go ahead and book that bus tour but be open to other modes of transportation and you might be surprised by what you see.
