Welcome, Earthlings!

Star Log, Nov. 26: The DayTripper Divas beamed down to one of our favorite rainy-day spots, LazerZone on Route 20 in Marlboro just before Thanksgiving. It was early afternoon, just before the teen crowd started rolling in, but we had a nice visit with owner Steve Taylor and his attentive staff. Under the watchful eye of LazerZone's alien mascot, we tried the arcade games, peeked in on a rousing game of lasertag, and sent our 8-year-old into the huge split-level playground. Steve even gave us a sneak peek at the new karaoke room, and noted that the dining hall converts into a "bungee wall" which was a new concept to us! View the evidence, below:

Canobie Lake: Now Toddler Tested!

We just took our (22 month old) daughter to Canobie Lake Park last week, and she loved it. Loads of great kid rides, and she loved the train that went around the park. Totally worth it (especially because she was free - up to age 3). Love the Compleat Day Tripper, thanks! - Jess McDaniel, Somerville

Perpetual Motion Saves the Rainy Day

I just have to thank you again for your book. My friend and I (plus two 2 year olds and a baby) just spent 3 blissful hours on a rainy day at Perpetual Motion in Lowell. We would never have heard of it without the Compleat Day Tripper. - Christine Power Thielman, Arlington

Let 'Em Loose at Perpetual Motion!

Perpetual Motion is once again a sure cure for family cabin fever, and now it's suitable for kids of all ages. After its move from Andover to Lowell last year, this popular Day Tripper venue resumed its role as a rainy-day refuge not only for preschoolers, but also for older kids with the addition of a physical challenge course designed specifically for Perpetual Motion, including slides, climbers, a huge foam pit and a traverse climbing wall. Of course, you'll still find the fabulous indoor playground for ages 6 and under, complete with sand and swings. Perpetual Motion is now located at 345 Chelmsford Street Lowell, MA 01851; tel 978-452-0777; about 25 minutes from Routes 2 & 128 via the Lowell Connector.
