Visalia, Tulare County, California

According to the text, there are seven fun things to do in Visalia. But upon looking at the images, one finds only three things to do in Visalia.

1. Look at a mid sized Sequoia in the landscaping of a business park.
2. Scrump oranges from someone else's grove.
3. Sit in water, staring into space, bored, with a surgical mask on your face.

Wallsend, NSW, Australia

This is Wallsend Park. OK, not much to look at, but this field was where I played my first competition football (soccer) match. I was 7 years old, representing my school.

Yes, they still have the dogs there:

Truckee, Nevada County, California

A beautiful mountain town, just north of Lake Tahoe. Head out about as north and east as you can go in California, on I-80. Truckee is just west of the stateline with Nevada. So pretty.

You might even want to have a family picnic at one of the local campgrounds. One being The Donner Party Picnic Area, where it would be a smart idea to stick to the veggie platter.
