I love Nature... as long as it doesn't bite me. LOL. So I love visiting places like National Parks. I love hiking on trails and just enjoying nature. But I'm not a fan of camping. I rather enjoy the night at a Marriott Hotel. =)
I had posted last night about FREE Museums if you are a Bank of America card holder. This FREE National Parks doesn't require the evil bank but is open to EVERYONE. Unfortunately, unlike Free Museums that is one weekend a month, the Free National Parks happens only 5 times a year with the next one coming up on June 9th. Make sure you mark your calendar!
Admission to a lot of National Parks are actually free, but there are also a lot that costs money. Take Yosemite National Park pictured above. It costs $20/car to go.
I hope to visit Yosemite one day (and go for free!) =)
Talk the TALK
1) Do you have any National Parks near you? Do you go often?
2) Do prefer camping in a tent or at a Marriott Hotel?

Ooo free national parks, I will like to go!
I don't think NO have Nationals Park. Not that I know of. Lol I've been wanting to experience camping, but bugs, bears, deer etc. no thank you. Plus I rather stay in a cabin than a tent. The Mariott sounds even better.
Once again...thanks for the info! We have Pinnacles near me, haven't been there in a long time. I remember going there on a field trip and went down into some caves, so cool!
i'm not a wilderness person, so i'm with you i'd rather stay at a mariott than camping in the woods,
I'm marking my calendar even though I probably can't go. :(
Steph Yen: ha ha i've been maybe twice. hated it.
crispy ☮: Me too! I hate it. I freak out. Really!
mylittlecasey *: i hate insects though...
Alicia ☺: me too. looks stunning.
Lilly M: what if you book a head of time. =)
I prefer nature
They're so kind. So if people sign up now they can take advantage of it. Just need $500
thanks for the information, i love visiting parks.
The closest national parks are 4-5 hours away by car here. I am not into camping. It's cold, there are bugs and wild animals so no thanks. Plus I like to feel clean and park washrooms are just nasty.
i love going to visit park's and stuff but i'm with you i'm not big on camping mostly because i am terrified of bug though
I do prefer the hotel much more =D But enjoying some parks and nature is also good. The park seems beautiful and worth the 20$ to visit
We do have national parks in the UK but I haven't been to one in a long time
that is a beautiful picture.
I would love to go to Yosemite National Park as well but I am not a fan of camping either
I think it is really great that 5 times a year you can get to go free. But I wouldn't mind paying $20 to visit Yosemite National Park because it looks amazing. And I would chose the Marriott as well...not sure I could survive camping lol

thats an awesome idea!
that's a great idea, here we only have one national natural park but it's worth to visit :) I just camped once at a beach and I didn't like it, that's to dirty for me but now I have to try in a mountain
thanks for both posts. I personally do not like camping. I've been three times and would prefer a hotel
I love nature too but wouldn't camp bc I'm a chicken when it comes to insects and creepy crawly things.
I wish National Parks were free all the time. I've been camping in a tent many times and it's a fun experience.

I've never been to Yosemite National Park before, but I'd love to go one day. :)
I would prefer Mariott Hotel as they are a preferred hotel chain and I'd get a corporate price haha. Plus we got wild animals here they will attack you and maul you to death. National Parks are only free on Canada Day here and you don't want to go then since hotels around them charge way more during long weekends and holidays.
