Re: Where to send parents on vacation?
 

if they dont require warmth. send them on a trip to portland or seattle and rent a motorhome and have them drive the coast down to california somewhere and fly home. it will be the best sight seeing they ever had and a camping sort of trip.
this may fit your budget and be unique.

Alaskan Cruise. If they've never seen the glaciers and such, they will really appreciate it. Pick August, when the Salmon are running and the bears are feeding on them.
