For 2 1/2 weeks in between will be heading through Philadelphia, Washington DC, Nashville, Memphis, Dallas, Kansas City, Colorado and onto Vegas. Our plans are kinda loosey goosey so we can stop and stay where we like. Only New York and LA accommodation are booked.

Any tips or ideas on what to see or where to stay, would be greatly appreciated

Why these destinations? I'm just curious. What a fabulous road trip! Definitely TONS to do in DC, if you can I would probably skip Dallas and go to San Antonio, but maybe some of the Dallas gals can give you ideas for Dallas, it just seems to be a big city to me and not much uniqueness like San Antonio. Go ski in Colorado!! And Vegas, well it is Vegas!! LOL Walk the strip! No idea about New York and LA, but I'm sure you already have ideas there and it will be fabulous! I'm sure you will have a blast and I hope you meet lots of friendly people along your way!

I love San Antonio! There is a ton of things to do there, too!

I have a friend who's dream is Iceland, watching stuff and looking at pictures with him, it looks like a beautiful country.

I wanted NY, DC and LA. We both wanted to take our time and drive across at our own pace. Wanting to head down south towards Houston, DH broke the trip into managable drive times, nothing too long. We want to see things along the way, not just a blur as we drive past. We felt Houston was too far so changed it to Dallas. We are still researching and adjusting our trip. So any input is much appreciated since we planning it using mostly google maps.

While I don't live as close I never visited the Keukenhof But I would love to go there this year!

My dream holiday? I would love to travel to the USA again. We went to the New York area 3 times and for our honeymoon we went to all the National parcs and visited Los Angeles, San Fransisco, San Diego, las Vegas and some smaller places and loved it! I would soooooooo love to go back there, but this time with the kids! But I guess this will stay a dream holiday

But this year we do our dream holiday in Europe: we go back to Hungaria again and had the most amazing time last year, so we're really looking forward to it!
