I'm not even a motorcycle enthusiast and I enjoyed this museum. The museum has a few hundred rare bikes but to me it looked like thousands. They are well displayed and you can get very close-up to view. The trip to Maggie Valley was very beautiful. My 81 yr. old dad wanted to go visit Maggie Vall...

You can get a season pass. They have a great water park and rides for all ages. It pays to shop around for food. Sometimes we just get a stamp on our hand, leave, eat at Wendys and come back. Make sure you wear cumf-y shoes and may need some sun block.

Now it is a 20 acre lake with dept...

I loved the Biltmore, the first and second time. But I'd be hard pressed to return again for a third time. Here is my combined review:

A long time ago I did paning for gold. Of course I didn't find anything but my friend did. We walked around I think it was some kind of park to see how the Cherokee indians lived. Very interesting.
