Which ones?

Yellowstone, was a struggle a bit. It wasn't balanced with enough kid friendly stuff....at that stage my kids were very young though.... Learnt my lesson for the following years and kept it balanced.
That's what I was wondering...I did Yellowstone and the grand Teton, and couldn't understand how small kids enjoyed such a trip.

I did Yellowstone Grand Tetons and Colorado in one trip. On top of everything else it was an insane amount of driving.

Looking to spend my 90K Iberia Avios for a two day chol hamoed trip.
I prefer not to fly more than 2-3 hours from NY.
I did MYR last year Pesach, MIA is a possibility but looking to go somewhere new, thought of BDA but points aren't available.
Any leads will be appreciated.

Nothing fits all that criteria,maybe list them in order of preference.
Portugal fits most criteria, but nothing to my knowledge fits all.
