Not only does Labor Day signify the change of the seasons for much of the country, but it also offers the last long weekend of the year for many us. And from the southern tip of Florida to the shores of the Pacific Coast, there are a variety of vacation destinations waiting to offer you and your family one last memorable experience before saying goodbye to the summer of 2009. Whether looking for sandy beaches, towering mountains or even an urban landscape, the exact 2009 Labor Day vacation you are hoping to experience is waiting for you! The Great Smoky Mountains and the Gatlinburg — Pigeon Forge area provides a natural sanctuary to escape to that can simultaneously offer relaxing scenes of isolation and adventurous, group-based outdoor activities. Of course, with a wide range of live show options and the ever-popular Dollywood theme park, visitors will find a tremendous blend of vacation options to fill even an extended stay in the Smokies.
Switching from the mountains to the bay, San Francisco, CA is another vacation option that blends big-time entertainment with natural beauty. Certainly, you will find few sights more moving than Muir Woods, Wine Country and Monterey Bay in Autumn, though city-based activities including trendy shopping tours are sure to keep your San Francisco vacation varied. Moving from the rugged beauty of the Pacific Northwest to the sandy expanse of Florida, Orlando is a popular vacation destination year-round and provides many travelers with their last warm weather experience for the year. One of the most popular destinations for theme park enthusiasts, the Orlando area is home to Disney World, SeaWorld, Aquatica, Gatorland and more. Additionally, Orlando is within proximity to both Daytona Beach and the Tampa area for numerous beach options.
