Seldom are vacation spots built for both elders and kids. It is more likely that the vacation spot either tends to cater to kids or to adults alone; never to both. Some may go to the extent of providing options but such options have rarely satisfied the intended audience. All in all, either the kids end up being dragged along to places of no interest to them or the adults end up spending their vacation traversing from one kiddy vacation spot to another. Boredom indeed!

One such place that caters to the interest of both adults and kids is Memphis, Tennessee. It's a true family vacation spot that ensures that both the adults and the kids get their load of fun and enjoyment. Whether it is the outdoor activities such as hiking and biking that the family is into or park rides, there is plenty of variety that ensures that adults and kids get to enjoy a good holiday.
