I went to the Jelly Belly Candy Factory a few years ago for the first time and I was immediately hooked. I love the whole factory tour because I find it so interesting how everything is made! The tour itself was really fun for my kids as well, but that might be because they knew they'd get to choose their favorite jelly beans and go home with a bag of "souvenirs".

I went to Boston for the first time just a few months ago because I met with Family Feud producers there, and my favorite part of the entire city of Boston was Boston Common. It was busy, but it wasn't insane (like how it would have been if it were in NY). I loved the fact that you could just sit down and enjoy the fresh air and the park without looking like you're insane and having to worry about rushing! It was like another dimension from what I'm used to back at home.

I love walking into the Curious George & Friends Bookstore because it truly feels like I'm entering an entirely new world! The amount of children's books in here is extremely shocking and my kids love every single one of them. They could honestly spend hours in here just in amazement at how many of their favorite books are in one place. Definitely go if you can!

I personally love Filene's Basement because I get the greatest deals on the nicest, high-class items! This Filene's Basement in particular is one of the most organized and nice ones that I've ever been to, as well as the workers being very kind and helpful, even offering me the family and friends discount (despite not knowing me) because I was buying so much.

Great animals, great atmosphere and great rides: what more can you ask for? Well, you get them in Disney's Animal Kingdom! This is by far the most relaxed park of the 4 and has some of the most fun rides out of the 4 parks. I love Expedition Everest, as well as Dinosaur, Nemo and the 3-D Bug's Life show. It's best to get to the park early before everyone piles in. One thing I wouldn't recommend is dining at the Rainforest Cafe in the park; it's mediocre at best!
