Family Vacation Ideas

We have never taken a family vacation. We would like to this year. Our kids are Boy 10, Girl 6 and Boy 2. What are your favorite spots? We aer open to flying or driving.

Do I leave him in underwear and trust that he'll tell me in enough time to find an exit and get to the nearest toilet? Or should I put a diaper on him just in case? Of course if I do the...
