Iwo Jima Memorial
|
Iwo Jima Memorial - The Marine Corps War Memorial stands as a symbol of this grateful Nation's esteem for the honored dead of the U.S. Marine Corps. While the statue depicts one of the most famous incidents of World War II, the memorial is dedicated to all Marines who have given their lives in the defense of the United States since 1775. The victory at Iwo Jima, a small island 660 miles south of Tokyo, was hard-fought and crucial. News-photographer Joe Rosenthal caught the afternoon flag raising in an inspiring Pulitzer Prize winning photograph. When the picture was later released, sculptor Felix W. de Weldon was so moved by the scene that he constructed a life-size model of it. |
Progreso, Mexico

Progreso is a hot-spot for shopping and bargain hunting, or for enjoying authentic Mexican cuisine. The town puts on regular festivals and events, so watch for music and folk dancing in the main square while you enjoy your margarita or succulent seafood.

South Padre Island
|
South Padre Island ¿ The gorgeous get-away spot of South Padre Island offers unforgettable days of relaxation, lounging on the beautiful white sandy beaches, and sipping cocktails while the sun sets. While you are there, don't forget to dine in one of the many sea-side restaurants and visit the quaint shops for souvenirs, clothing and gifts. If you like to fish, then charter a boat for the day and try your hand at deep sea fishing. Or, you can enjoy a variety of water sports like water skiing, sailing, kite and wind surfing, para-sailing and swimming. Once you visit the Island, you will want to return again and again. |
World Birding Center
|
World Birding Center - The lower Rio Grande Valley is the center of a phenomenal convergence of birds from all over North America. This first-class birding destination is the setting for the World Birding Center, a network of nine birding sites that stretch from South Padre Island to Roma. These nine sites include wetlands, beach surf, riverside woodlands, and scenic bluffs. Stop at any of these nine sites -- or at the headquarters at Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State Park -- to watch for orioles, kites, parrots, parakeets, green jays, and nearly 300 other species. The center provides viewing stations, watching towers, special programs, and interpretive centers. |
