App of the Day (Fotopedia National Parks)

The United States has 58 protected areas known as national parks that are operated by the National Park Service, each having been established by an act of the United States Congress.

That’s a lot of summer miles to cover in the old station wagon with three kids. And, unless you’re unemployed, it’s a lot of hours to log away from work. While we know nothing can take the place of visiting Yosemite or Glacier National Park, our App of the Day provides a fun activity for the family, and just maybe the impetus needed to plan one of these trips for this summer.

The Fotopedia National Parks app for the iPad is an extraordinary collection of 3,000 photos by renowned professional photographer Quang-Tuan Luong. He catalogues a diversity of the National Parks through a selected set of 1,500 up front, which allows viewers to then move in for closer looks at specific parks and places inside them.
