Day 1

Travel day. Branson Tourism Center arranged the travel for everyone in the family into the Springfield/Branson airport. We all gathered at the Grand Plaza Hotel throughout the day and met up at 5 o'clock for our first dinner at the same table in years!

Day 2

After a great breakfast at the hotel, we all headed out to Silver Dollar City for the day. It was a blast! They have world class crafts, fabulous entertainment, and exciting themed rides perfect for the entire family!

Day 3

Exhausted from an amazing day at Silver Dollar City, we took it a little easier today. Some of us slept in while others got an early start on shopping at the Branson Landing, they've got everything there! And running right along Lake Taneycomo, it was a great spot to keep cool and take a break by the water.

In the afternoon, we all went to see Clay Cooper ... and let me tell you, if you like country music, then you will LOVE Clay Cooper! The show mixed great songs with a little comedy and some down-home stories that was a hit with everyone, from the little kids to the grandparents.

That evening, we all went to another great dinner at Moon River Grill and then caught another one of our favorite shows of the whole trip - SIX! Words cannot adequately describe this amazing show.

Day 4

Today was the day that we all did our own thing. Some of us went on the Vigilante ZipRider, others visited Dogwood Canyon. It was so easy because Branson Tourism Center really helped us with a few gems off the beaten path that we really loved.

Day 5

Today is the day we leave. We all met for breakfast at the hotel and then the shuttle took us all back to our respective airports and we said our goodbyes. This was truly one of the most fun and enjoyable family vacations we've ever had. Branson has something for everyone! We've already started planning next year's trip!
