Considering Columbus never really made it to America, I would have to say Lewis and Clark would have to be the pick of the two you mentioned.  Columbus got as far as the Bahamas and stopped. Hence his new found world, but never really made it to America.

The opening of Fenway Park was delayed because of the sinking of the Titanic. I think the first game was suppose to be April 15 or 16, 1912.

In 6 months you can learn many things about the people and culture of where you go to. Although there are similarities between the UK, US, and Australia there are differences beyond the similarities of language. I live in the US and when I visited the UK there was no language barrier, but there was still a bit of culture shock, although not as much as when I visited European countries. Since I live in the US I know that there are some stereotypes of Americans as not knowing much of the rest of the world and being self centered, and some Americans are like that but they are not the majority. It depends on what your interests are. I can only speak of what I am familiar with, which is the US. If you like big cities with many cultural amenities there is New York, Chicago, and San Francisco. If you like nature, there is Niagara Falls, Yellowstone Park, and the Grand Canyon. When I visited Europe it seemed smaller than I would have thought, so if you visit the US expect cities and attractions to be further apart than you may initially think. My opinion, which is probably biased due to where I live, is that the US has many different areas which can either be appealing or unappealing to people based on their preferences. As to where you should stay if you decide to visit the US, the possibilities are endless due to the diversity of the different cities and states. My personal opinion of the Top 10 places to see in the US would be Boston, New York, Niagara Falls, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Antonio, Yellowstone Park, Grand Canyon, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

The Philadelphia Zoo is the oldest zoo in America.  It was originally conceived by Benjamin Franklin, but it wasn't chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania until March 21, 1859.  Its opening was delayed by the Civil War, and it finally opened on July 1, 1874.\n\nSo Franklin was the driver behind the zoo, but he didn't live to see it.  \n\nToday, the William Camac Founder's Award is presented to a Friend of the Philadelphia Zoo who best exemplifies the profound generosity and enthusiasm for the Zoo embodied by Dr. William Camac, who founded the Philadelphia Zoo in 1859. \n\nSo, Franklin conceived of it, Camac made it happen, and the Governor of Pennsylvania at the time (William Fisher Packer) and the mayor of Philadelphia (Alexander Henry) got it chartered, so I think all share in the spotlight.  However, the recognized founder is Camac.\n\nIn addition to being the first zoo in America, it is also the first to open a special zoo just for children.

I think this is a trick question.  \n\nSeminole National Park does not exist.  It is not listed in the National Parks registry.

I know that Joe Torre was the first to hit a home run in Fulton County Stadium.\n\nHere are the firsts of Turner Field:\n\nFirst pitch by Denny Neagle at 7:47 p.m.... The Cubs' Brian McRae was the first batter... Kenny Lofton was the first Braves' batter... First hit was by Chipper Jones... Michael Tucker had the first home run... Chipper Jones had the first stolen base... Brad Clontz secured the first victory and Mark Wohlers recorded the first save.... First error was by Fred McGriff.

I want to see them all. I want to see the classic parks like Fenway and Wrigley. I want to see the new parks in San Francisco, Houston and Pittsburgh. Mostly, I just want to see baseball. My dream is to spend a summer travelling around the country visiting every stadium at least once.

A difficult question to ask.  Generally, the American Indian, or Native American, would be the most likely candidate.  However, their ancestors arrived here via the land bridge between Siberia and Alaska not once, but three times.\nNow scientists speculate, and with some evidence, that early Europeans arrived here across the icefields of the Atlantic Ocean during the last major ice age, about 10,000 years ago.\nSo who is truly American?  Whoever is born here, I guess.

The first European to reach the Americas was Christopher Columbus in 1492 but the continent were already populated by indeginious population before then when the land bridge formed between Asia Europe and America during the ice age and prehistoric people moved there.

When I teach this subject my answer is always three fold.  FIRST-ancient peoples crossed over the land bridge between Asia and North America.  \n\nSECOND-Leif Erikson was the first known European to discover America\n\nTHRID- Columbus "rediscovered" America at a time when the knowledge caught hold and became widely known. \n\nMy personal belief is that many people discovered it independantly of others and thus were the true "first discoverer" at least in their own minds eye (and tribes or ships).
