Woodstock, Illinois is the actual town where "Groundhog Day" starring Bill Murray was filmed. If you are a huge fan of the film, you'll probably get a little kick out of being there. Unfortunately, there's not much to do. There is certainly no Bill Murray nor a Groundhog. You can, however, check out an ugly mural dedicated to the movie.

Illinois – Woodstock

And of course, if you have seen the movie like 20 times, it's all going to seem quite familiar. During January through early February, you can catch a showing of Groundhog Day in the Harold Ramis Auditorium at the Classic Cinemas Woodstock Theatre. Otherwise, you can stay at home and watch it on your TV.

Did you know...

  • There are over 61,000 people on a plane in the air over the U.S. at any given moment. That makes sense because the U.S. has one third of all the airports in the world. Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta is the busiest airport in the world with over 100 million total passengers every year since 2015.
  • You've heard of the phrase "wanderlust," but do you know the German word "fernweh"? It means "far sickness" or an intensely strong urge to travel. The next time you feel the need to head out on a road trip, you've got a case of fernweh. And the only cure is to travel somewhere new!
  • The surface area of Pluto is just under 6.5 million square miles. The CIA Factbook lists the area of Russia to be just over 6.6 million square miles. That makes Russia bigger than Pluto (and much closer to visit). Are you still very upset that Pluto isn’t a planet anymore?
  • The largest pool in the world can be found at the San Alfonso del Mar resort in Chile. It has 66 million gallons (enough water to fill 100 Olympic-sized pools). It's 3,323 feet in length, over twice the length of the next biggest pool. At a cost of $3,000,000, that sounds like a pretty good deal.
  • Taking a vacation is good for your health! Studies have shown that a vacation can help to lower your risk of heart disease. It's also a proven way to improve your creativity. So if you have some writer's block or need to lower your stress, grab a friend and go on an adventure!
