1. “I live in Texas, so on vacation we go to the beach. We have had lots of fun at Corpus Christi and Galveston. Although Galveston was hit by a hurricane and it has not been built back yet. We love to camp out at night and during the day go to the beaches. The kids love this and it is like two vacations in one. Camping and the beach.” – Carlene

8. “My favorite vacation is going to the West Edmonton Mall (Edmonton, Canada) for the day. It’s the water park or the amusement park or just exploring the oh so many shops and maybe just maybe dropping some coin on the way. And you guessed it, for us the only affordable vacation we get most of the time. Every couple of years we do splurge, unfortunately not this year. Cheers.” – Marion Greenwood

9. “An often-overlooked (and incredibly cheap) vacation destination within the US is Hermann, Missouri (http://www.hermannmissouri.com/). The locals are friendly, the buildings are German, and the wineries are fantastic. Be sure to stop in to Adam Puchta Winery and try the Norton (grape not available anywhere else!) and the Vignoles. It’s a little out of the way, but really, all good wineries are!” – Colin Wright
