A 100-foot-high star atop a mountain and visible from miles around welcomes you to the "Star City of the South", a great beginning for your weekend getaway to this city rich in culture, history, fun and entertainment. Close to the star is the Mill Mountain Zoological Park, where you'll see the endangered Snow Leopard, Amur Tiger and Red Wolf, along with over 40 other animal species. The Center in the Square is the city's cultural hub, where you can catch a Broadway-quality show at the Mill Mountain Theater or hear the celebrated Roanoke Symphony. Museums are everywhere, and whether your interest lies in art, history, science or transport, you'll find a museum to match it. The Harrison Museum of African-American Culture honours achievements of African-Americans and includes an impressive African exhibit. For underground delights, visit the Dixie Caverns for a 45-minute tour of breathtaking cave formations, after which you can browse through pottery, rock and mineral and other shops. There's something to keep you occupied and entertained every minute in this environmentally-conscious, friendly and very welcoming Virginia city.

Enjoy an old-fashioned beach holiday, complete with a boardwalk, at one of Delaware's most popular resort towns. Long a traditional summer getaway destination for families, Rehoboth Beach is now also a favourite of gay and lesbian travellers. Serious golfers will want to test their skills at the Kings Creek Country Club, while Old Landing Golf Course offers great views of the local scenery. Along with enjoying the famous beach and strolling the boardwalk, there's also a nearby amusement park called Funland to enjoy.
