Best Vacation Spot

It's almost time for our family vacation to be here and we have not even decided where to go or what to do. I need some help in deciding where we should go. Of course, I would love to go to the beach, either Panama City, Orange Beach, or even Clearwater. However, I know that the beach is not Eddie's favorite place to go and that is why I put him in charge of planning this vacation. He thought about taking us to Chicago because he had been there recently and saw a play called "Wicked". He really enjoyed the play and wanted to take us to see it. I thought Chicago would be a good place to go also because the Cubs are his favorite baseball team and since Eddie's 50th birthday falls during our vacation, I thought it would be great for him to get to go to Wrigley Field to see a Cubs game. But he was not able to find three tickets together for the game. Other places he thought about going was New York City, or Washington D.C. We have been to the Smoky Mountains many times and would proably rather do something different this year, even though we love the mountains.

So, help me out. We are running out of time and we need to decide where to go. Give me suggestions!
