I'm terrified of heights, but these look so fun! It wouldn't be too hard to muster up the bravery needed to strap into one of these, would it? Manhattan isn't that far away!

I don't know about you, but I've always wanted to learn how to sail. Even if it's with a small crew, I'm still on the water! Ninnescah is who I'd recommend to take you out there!

Old World Balloonery in Overland Park is who I think of when I think balloons. The festival is always gorgeous, why not try getting in one yourself?

Maybe you've always wanted to surf, but you live in the most waveless state ever. For a fee, you can learn how to kiteboard, which is exactly like surfing but you're using windpower instead of waves! There's huge jumps and many a clumsy splash to be had. Good thing Kansas is full of lakes!

Get a Richard Petty driving experience here and learn how to drive a racecar! Can you imagine zooming around in one of these for a living?

This one is kind of a joke, because it's not crazy exciting. How funny is it that our highest point looks so similar to some of the lowest.
Who wants to do some of these interesting activities? If you’re more of a road trip kind of person, I completely understand. Maybe this list can help you with ideas?
