Love going to the nc zoo but on a beautiful day Pullen park is a great way to spend the day!

The Durham life and Science museum

We just took a day trip to Jonas Ridge for snow tubing, followed by snowman-making at Grandfather Mountain, and ending with a college grub pub dinner across the street from ASU. Perfect!

We really love Sylvan Heights Water Fowl Park in Scotland Neck, NC. It is part of the zoo & aquarium association so if you have a membership to either the zoo or aquariums you get in free. You can get up close and personal with so many birds there. It's about an hour and a half from N. Raleigh and so worth the trip.

The Zoo is always at the top of the list.

We love going to Shelley Lake. A picnic, duck feeding, hike and then playground- all in 1 spot! Perfect!!

My son loves going to just about any outdoor park/playground, Marbles Kids Museum, Burlington Park, etc...

Never been to Pullen Park before so winning this wold be a real treat!

I love Pullen Park with my grandchildren! I have 12 and think this would be a great trip with them.

We like to go to Pullen Park as well as Wet and Wild Water Park
