Adults-Only Retreat in the Poconos

Paradise Stream is nestled amid the forests, lakes, and peaks of the Pocono Mountains in northeastern Pennsylvania. The 1960s brought a flood of publicity for the area that resulted in the Poconos being named the “Honeymoon Capital of the World.” Paradise Stream still maintains that romantic feel; it’s an adults-only property, and many guest rooms still have the heart-shaped tubs that made the resort famous.

Paradise Stream is one of three sister resorts in the area, along with Cove Haven and Pocono Palace. Guests at any of the three get unlimited access to each facility through the resorts’ Key Around Club. You can go paddleboating at Paradise Stream, play racquetball on the court at Cove Haven, or enjoy golf on the nine-hole course at Pocono Palace. Paradise Stream’s nightclub also has nightly entertainment and dancing.

The Garden of Eden Apple suite features a two-person heart-shaped whirlpool bath, a private indoor heated pool, and even a dry sauna. The Lakeside Villa suite, meanwhile, offers a private furnished balcony as well as a heart-shaped whirlpool bath and other romantic touches.

In the morning, head to the restaurant for a full breakfast (with all-inclusive packages). The restaurant also has a dinner menu that changes each day, and theme nights on the weekend. For those purchasing the room-only package, breakfast and dinner packages are available for purchase at the resort.

Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains: Quaint, Historical Towns

The Poconos region of northeastern Pennsylvania accounts for some 2,400 square miles of mountains, lakes, waterfalls, and forests. The area has been a popular vacation destination ever since Pennsylvania Quakers opened a hotel here on the Delaware River in 1829. Today, the Poconos draw nearly 24 million annual visitors, thanks to year-round recreational opportunities and spectacular natural scenery.

A handful of quaint, little towns full of antique shops and galleries nestle in the mountains. You’ll find boutique wine galleries and historical mansions tucked away on country roads, including the late 19th-century Asa Packer Mansion, which is open for tours, in the borough of Jim Thorpe.

Celebrating 35 Years Of Furry Fun

To celebrate its 35th year, the nation’s only theme park based entirely on Sesame Street is pulling out all the stops. All season long, visitors can join the party by hopping onto whirling rides, zooming down splashy water slides, and enjoying toe-tapping shows featuring characters from the beloved children’s series.

The entire park will be decked out for the occasion—featuring a huge inflatable birthday cake, giant candles all the way down Sesame Street and new character photo spots around the park. Even the Sesame Street topiaries will be outfitted in their birthday best. Elsewhere, the daily parade becomes the Neighborhood Birthday Party Parade, complete with colorful balloons, sparkly cupcakes, and a brand-new birthday song. The jubilee also features three show-stopping performances about letters, numbers, and friendship, mixed in with a set of classic and contemporary Sesame Street tunes.

Late Nite Catechism

In the latest incarnation of the long-running comedy series Late Nite Catechism, “Sister” transforms the venue into a classroom, where she teaches the dos and don’ts (mostly the don’ts) of navigating the modern world. In this interactive experience, the audience plays Sister’s students, and anyone attending does so at risk of her hilarious but decidedly pointed wit, particularly if they chew gum, dare to whisper to their neighbor, or knowingly start a cootie epidemic. Attentive audience members will find themselves rewarded with soul-protecting prizes, such as glow-in-the-dark rosaries, but naughty students might find themselves confined to a corner onstage.

Steel Panther

• Their gimmick: dressing in leather and playing their own tongue-in-cheek brand of ’80s-era hair metal
• How they do it: with blazing guitar solos, sly winks, and shameless obscenity
• Hits: “Community Property” and “Death to All But Metal”
• What The Baltimore Sun praised: their “professionalism and penchant for crotch jokes”
• What else: even as a parody band, they “stand as a better tribute to the ‘80s than many of the current bands from the big-hair era.”
• Their latest album of raunchy lampoons: All You Can Eat, which features song titles not suitable for innocent eyes

Like a Storm

• Who they are: a straight-shooting, headbanging, hard-rock band with a New Zealand slant
• That slant: mixing their thundering guitars, bass, and drums with the sounds of the didgeridoo, djembe, and other instruments of their homeland
• Monumental fact about the band: it’s the highest-charting New Zealand hard-rock act in the history of the US Active Rock Charts, and the only New Zealand act to hit any US chart without a record label
• Their breakthrough single: “Love the Way You Hate Me”
• Where you’ve seen them live: opening for rock and metal icons such as Korn, Puddle of Mudd, Creed, Staind, and Shinedown
