T-312 : 'Zona Travel


In a couple of weeks we'll be traveling to Arizona for Spring Break.  High on our list of places to visit is the Grand Canyon and the Mesa Pageant.  Here are some other places we're considering:

-Havasupai Falls?
-North Rim? South Rim?
-Paria Canyon?
-Desert View Tower?
-Skywalk?
-Slot Canyon?
-Lake Havasu - Stayed at Motel 6 within view of the London Bridge and In 'N Out Burger
--London Bridge - Took some great night shots with my new DSLR
-Phoenix
--Phoenix Zoo - Agreed that this is one of the top 5 zoos I've been to; still lags behind Omaha.
--Desert Botanical Garden
--AZ Science Center
--Heard Museum is good for local history
--METRO Light Rail
--Chase Field (Rube Goldberg device) - D'Backs tickets from a good friend on Wednesday night!
--Golfland/Sunsplash is fun for mini golf/laser tag/go cart type stuff, they have an awesome water park there but I'm pretty sure it won't be open yet but you could call and check. 
-PIR?
-Rawhide Western Town?
-Hoover Dam - An amazing place; a little disappointed that they charged for everything.
-Mesa
--Mesa Historical Museum
--Champlin Fighter Museum
--AZ Museum of Natural History
--Usery Park which is good for desert scenery, picnicking and hiking
-Tempe
--Tempe Town Lake
--AZ Mills Mall 
---IMAX theater
---aquarium


What would you add/subtract from the list?  Opinions wanted.
