    Yep, cycling is a good one. You can actually go places and do stuff, and use your bike as transportation, and then it doesn't feel so much like you're exercising. You're just going somewhere.

    Swimming is a good one if you have access to a pool.

    Any sort of dance-related activity can be fun and get you moving, whether it be Zumba or actual dancing.

    I do hula hoop! Haven't in a while, but that is because since I did it to lose my first 10 pounds, my body has gotten used to it I'm pretty sure, I LOVE hooping!

    If there's a Sky Zone near you, give that a try. It's an indoor trampoline park, and I take the kids there all the time. After an hour of jumping around on trampolines like a ten-year-old you'll be sweating like crazy, and you'll probably burn 800 calories, but never for a second will it feel like a "workout".

    A rebounder aka mini-trampoline. SO much fun! Easy on the joints.

    Dodgeball on trampolines is a lot of fun! Be prepared though -- some of those guys are really good, even the kids. The basketball dunking is great, too. They even have daily "skyrobics" classes. I haven't done it, but my wife did a few times and she said it was a a lot of fun.
