Some Vacations Spots are not for the kids

 Every vacation is not Kid Friendly! There should not be families with small children visiting places like South Beach Miami or New Orleans unless you already live in that area or you are visiting family members.  These cities have limited kid friendly activities. These are spots you visit when you have a sitter to take care of the kids. I recently visited New Orleans with my 50 year old mother and 5 year old daughter. My brother who is a resident of the are was our host.  We enjoyed wonderful dining at excellent eateries. The only place that my daughter really enjoyed was the aquarium.  Everything else was completely for adults.  On another vacation my family took a 5 day cruise out of Miami. We arrived a few days early to enjoy the city. We did have a chance to visit a Miami Heat game while there. However it was not a kid friendly place to bring a 5 year old. We went shopping and went to the pier and the beaches. However if you haven't been to MIA please be advised that thong bikini are a normal dress for walking down the street. My daughter asked my if their mommy know they were outside with their bottoms out. With that said it is our jobs as parents to make sure that we research the places we choose for vacation. We want our children exposed to different things to broaden there horizons not to scare the life out of them.
