Me too:naughty: Don't forget to mention the coffeeshops in Amsterdam:fisch: No I'm joking. Eh...there are alot of other great things in the Netherlands
PhotoJenic Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Me. Okay, just joking. Not really sure what he should see especially for stuff around here. Maybe the mountains in the fall? That's about all this state has to offer... or maybe the library that's half in the US half in Canada or the radio station that's painted like a cow and has a fake cow out front. Okay, so not a lot around this area haha.
Finkster Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 He should see the Statue Of Liberty in New Jersey. Actually, he shouldn't. It's boring. You walk on a giant lady. And when I went, her head was closed off. That place was like a giant maze. Or The Liberty Science Museum. May sound boring, but it's freaking awesome! If only Discovery Zone was still around. That place was fun.
Mika is my hero Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Discovery Zone!!! I loved that place! I had my birthday party there when i was 6! Awhh. I miss it. If Mika ever came to Chicago, he should wander around and window shop down Michicgan Ave, then head to the Museum of Science and Industry, walk around for a bit, and at night go to a Chicago Symphony concert at Millenium Park. And of course splash around at the Face Fountain. He needs to spend time in Chicago, it's such a beautiful city.
kk448 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Oh my gosh. Discovery Zone was the coolest place to go when I younger! I always had my birthday parties there! I remember doing that Men in Black laser tag and then there was zip line thing that you rode on and then fell into a thing of plastic balls. You were suppose to let go, but I would always hit that big padded wall on purpose though. Anyway, there's not much to do in my town. We have a festival thing at the end of July that's pretty cool. Mika can come to that.
Satya82 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Well let's see...in Michigan there's the Tulip Festival every spring in Holland, MI, and Travese City is totally awesome--by the water, and known for their cherries. There's a cherry festival there every summer. (Whenever cherries are in season, lol.) And one of the coolest places in Michigan is actually Mackinac Island, where no cars are allowed, but there's a Lilac Festival every spring (apparently we're into festivals) and it's GORGEOUS and kind of like you stepped back in time. B&Bs, the famous Mackinac Island fudge, horse-drawn carriage rides, bike rides around the island (8 miles--I did it once) and lots of weddings happen on Mackinac Island every summer. http://www.mackinacisland.org/ Some photos: Lots of horse-drawn carriages. And no cars. The Grand Hotel, which is HUGE (very fancy) and supposedly haunted: They also have a phenomenal afternoon tea. Plus, the Sleeping Bear Dunes are pretty cool. Lots of rolling down sand dunes, and getting sand in your shoes but it's beautiful! Um...and in the fall we have awesome cider mills and apple orchards and gorgeous fall leaves and pumpkin patches. Basically Mika, come here between May-October, and not in February.
Finkster Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 If that place was still around, I'd still be having my birthday parties there! It was so much fun! I always got myself lost in there! haha The zip line thing was my favorite! there were no balls to fall into, just a giant mat. Which hurt, but I always ran back up to go on it again. And the giant punching bags at the bottom were awesome! I used to climb on top of them and jump down at my sisters.

Mika should visit the Jersey Shore. The boardwalk is fun but trashy. And he should go on these giant trampolines in the ocean that you jump off of. So much fun! I usually have wrestling matches and everyone tries to knock each other off the trampolines. I know you don't like fish or oceans, neither do I, but this is a lot of fun! (And if you can jet ski you can do this, buddy). And then he can go to South Jersey and hunt for the Jersey Devil. Heck, I'll be happy to escort him to some interesting Weird New Jersey places.
Mika4Life13 Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Uhm Both west coasts and East coasts are unbelievably amazing and anyone'd be an ass to not want to see Newfoundland Or B.C.
