Summer vacation doesn’t have to be an expensive or super long trip. Day trips are a great way to get out of the house without breaking the bank; there’s no hotel room to worry about. You can also explore something new in your area or visit an old favorite. Another great thing about day trips is that you can go on more than one. Here are a few ideas of what you can do one summer day!
- Relax at a Botanical Garden
- Visit the Animals at Zoo or Drive-Through Safari
- See Something New at an Aquarium
- Hike at a State Park
- Visit Local Landmarks
Think outside the box and see what you can discover in your area! You may be surprised at what you can find.
