  4. Tampa Bay History Center

    In a new three-story building along the Riverwalk, this first-rate history museum is the best place to learn about the region's Seminoles, Cracker pioneers and the legendary Cuban community and cigar industry that formed the cornerstone of turn-of-the-century Tampa. Like maps? Its dazzling cartography collection covers 400 years of mapmaking, as conquistadors and tycoons tried to pin down Florida. An outpost of the Columbia Restaurant makes a delicious lunch stop.

  6. Taku Glacier Lodge

    The most popular tours in Juneau are flightseeing, glacier viewing and salmon bakes and a trip to this historic camp combines all three. You reach it via a floatplane that includes flying across a half-dozen glaciers. At the log lodge you enjoy an incredible meal of wild salmon to the view of Taku Glacier.

    Sustain

    Sustain is one of the leading – and more affordable – purveyors of locally sourced, organically grown, raised and caught food in the Miami area. The lovely dining room blends smooth white walls with warm wood paneling and rounded metallic edges. The food is fantastic; try the bright, meltingly textured fish sandwich or fired chicken swimming in creamy kale and barbecued beans. The menu changes with the season. Vegetarians and vegans are always catered to, although carnivores will find plenty to enjoy as well.

Here, traverse the world's antiquities and follow art's progression with examples from nearly every era. Monet, O'Keeffe and George Inness highlight the Impressionists, and intriguing galleries are devoted to pewter, silver, Steuben glass and Wedgwood vases.
