Scranton, PA

(a trip we did a few years ago)
I would like to share with you our vacation. You can take some ideas from here (why not have a ready planned vacation J )

Most outings where for free or very cheap. We love nature and the kids love to play so we tried to mix both.

For hotel tips, see hotels & motels.
