The Ormond Beach museum. Its close to Daytona Beach, which has its own arts & science museum as well, and I'd like to drive on its beach and see one of the few boardwalks that FL has to offer. Ravine Gardens seems a bit too sleepy in comparison, and Palatka looks a bit too quiet for my tastes.
If this was 2004: Six Flags Astroland or Six Flags New Orleans
If this was 2004: Six Flags Astroland or Six Flags New Orleans
New Orleans. In 2004 I was in college, so a trip to New Orleans would have sounded more fun that a trip to Houston. I know I know, the question was about amusement parks. I'd go to New Orleans and hit the park one day and hit other sites during the rest of my trip. I don't care which park is better, I wouldn't plan a vacation around just the park in either case. New Orleans all the way.

Badlands National Park or the Grand Canyon
Badlands. Since I've never been there, unlike the Grand Canyon which I've visited before.
For the one that was posted barely before I got my post posted, I'd go with Arches. Although I don't have any doubt that Scotts Bluff National Moment in Nebraska, also would be nice to visit.
Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota, or Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota?
Ponderosa. I've never been to that part of the country. Norfolk/VA Beach or Jacksonville FL?
Tough one(got close to Norfolk but didn't quite properly visit, and I'd never been to Jax), but I suppose I'll pick Norfolk. I only got to Williamsburg years ago for a family reunion trip, but sadly didn't travel further east to see the rest of the 'Hampton Roads' region. And near Jacksonville, the only place that slightly jumps out to me that I want to visit is Saint Augustine. Near Norfolk, I'd love to check out Virginia Beach, Portsmouth, and the VA towns across the Chesapeake Bay on the Delmarva Peninsula further. Not to forget Tangier Island, which I'd like to visit despite that I get the sad sense that island's culture might be slowly dying long term.
And on past street view comparisons on the street view vs. street view thread, Norfolk had a few nice pockets of urbanity in some parts of that city. And it appears Norfolk had some sort of limited light rail system, in place. Nothing against Jax, but I don't think it has as much urbanity. Although the Five Points neighborhood in Jax, looks nice.
Both not hugely urban but at least Columbus is a college town.
Baltimore, MD or Cleveland, OH?
Cleveland by far. It's on Lake Erie and has the Rock n Roll museum.
Bull Shoals or Lake of the Ozarks?
