Family Travel Videography by Ella Ross:

Burlington, VT "The West Coast of New England" A rolling mountain range plus a city with some punch, what more could you ask for?
Erie, PA "The Gem City of the Great Lakes" Going up Bicentennial Tower reminds you that all a city can offer is right at your fingertips.
Bar Harbor / Mount Desert Island, ME "Ile de Monts Deserts" Go out on the ocean. Go up a mountain. Pick up a crab. But also learn about the life and industry of Maine’s coastline and walk and shop around downtown Bar Harbor.
Philadelphia, PA "The City of Brotherly Love" A museum here, the birthplace of a nation there, you see something interesting everywhere you look in Philly.
Cleveland, OH "America's North Coast" I could go on and on about what I’ve seen in “The Land” and it wouldn’t scratch the surface of what’s there.
Evansville, IN "'E' is for Everyone!" Whether you plan on traveling back in time in a museum, or living in the moment in nature, Evansville is there for you.
Indianapolis, IN "The Crossroads of America" Whether your family is a "get out and see the country" or a "stay in and appreciate some of humanity’s accomplishments" kind of family, there’s something for you in Indianapolis.
Historic Perry County, MO "Plant Your Family Here" I’m an East Coast city gal by birth, but Perry County certainly got me out of my comfort zone, in the best way possible.
Raleigh, NC "City of Oaks" While it’s certainly a city, Raleigh gives you lots of space to breathe.
Charleston, SC "The Big Sweetgrass Basket" Charleston was my first true introduction to the American South, and it’s safe to say I’ll be coming back.
