Visit A National Park With Your Kids

Visit the National Park is very useful, in addition to great fun, for children age bracket. This gives them the opportunity to learn about the natural, or man-made, ancient monuments, and instill in them a love of nature and history. They will be the custodian of the future of our planet, and during their visit, they can learn a lot about preserving the magic of it.

The first National Park was Yellowstone, which is set in the year 1872. A few years later, in 1916, the National Park Service was created, to protect and share this special landmark, which then put some more, like Sequoia and Yosemite, among others.

One of the seven wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon, designated as a national park in 1919. Living in a place that is relatively close to it, I often visit it, and still has never lost its wonder. Every day, a cloud, a sunny day, could make a difference how vast the Canyon looks. The above facilities have changed over the years, especially on the South Rim, because the crowd continues to grow need more facilities, and a way to help everyone enjoy it. However, the Canyon itself is still the same, still the greatest extent possible.

Some of the grounds of preserving "works of man". Mesa Verde was the first Park of this type, which is set in 1906. With a lot of ancient dwellings, this site is spectacular. Such as Chaco Canyon, which can be accessed via the ground, secluded and quiet, these sites give us the image of a glimpse of the lives of those who came before us.

We have a garden that protects areas that are as diverse as the redwood forests, snow-covered mountains, pristine lakes, rainforest, desert regions of high and low, and archaeological sites. By designating them national parks, they are protected, we can enjoy it just the same as the previous visitor owned, and make sure those who come after us as well.

In addition to preserving this beautiful sites, the National Parks Service help teach our children about the importance of protecting the environment. The Junior Ranger program is very beneficial to them. All my own children had done it, in a different Park, at different times. We have not visited all the children, but we have a Junior Ranger badge collection from what we do.

To get the badge, children should learn about specific parks, fill out the questionnaire, answer some of the questions asked by the guard of the forest to them, then promised to help protect the Park, and all that is in it. While issuing their paper, they go treasure hunting, learning about the garden, and all are preserved. It is almost like being in class super fun.

Another Way to Enjoy Boracay

Party night, drinks overflow, too many crowds, coastlines polluted, and so are the comments we see (or hear) refers to the famous Boracay island at this time. This is not surprising because the island has become one of the most prominent tourist destination in the country for years. Just as the island tourist destination of other commercialised, Boracay island is a quiet and more beautiful than it is now. I can surely and personally attest to it because my first experience of Boracay which can be updated in 1999.

Roughly, fourteen years after pertamaku visits. I took my wife, and I decided to have a 2nd honeymoon there to renew our vows. We booked 4 days, 3 nights stay on 10-13 December 2013. A month before the date of our trip, the Philippines was hit by super Typhoon ' Yolanda ' (Haiyan) where large parts of Eastern Visayas were Hit, including Boracay. The flight was canceled and guests were stranded for several days. Some guests are scheduled after the cyclone until those who ordered around December, foreigners and local, deliberately cancel their hotel reservations when you see how great the damage is and expect relief operations and rehabilitation operation that is in progress. So, I made sure that the hotel and commercial companies up and running before we arrived. I kept trying to recall the memories of my life in Boracay when first I visited. Kinda hard but one thing is for sure: I can not, in any way, just remember there is a resort and restaurant right along the coastline. With normal speed, December will be the peak of the season in Boracay but since the cyclone, we are fortunate to have witnessed what Boracay during the lean.

I'm looking for a side of "crowded and polluted the shoreline" Boracay that I have seen many times in the news and on Facebook. I was frustrated because I myself see Boracay is not exploited as how to describe it. There are only a few people and peaceful, and the water is so clean. The beach was beautiful just like I remembered fourteen years ago.

After more than a year, once again I have the chance to go to Boracay, this time with my family who are growing. Around the first week of April 2015 when my wife became pregnant four months, I had the pleasure of seeing Boracay in the peak season. So, again the beach was filled with the most touristy beaches are on vacation. All the tinkering at White Sands during the day and partying at one of the many night clubs and bars at night.

Don't get me wrong, I still have a good time with my family and friends but I can't help but yearn for peace and tranquility that I enjoy on my second visit back in 2013. So, I think visiting Boracay island during winter from the first week of June until the last week of October, might not be a bad idea.
