She was born in Paris and lives in the UK. Shes coming to visit me in the USA. She had knee surgery not too long ago so I have to be thoughtful of that, but I want to take her out for a fun night or two while shes here. What are some ideas you might have?

I think a traditional dinner. You can actually converse and get to know each other. It's hard to do that in the movie theater. I also think that a drive to the mountains may be a bit too intimate.
I agree with Wilkommen. If it's the first time you're meeting in person, she's unlikely to want to get in your car until she knows you better. I certainly wouldn't!
It's a trap. When you wake up in a hotel bathtub missing your kidneys, I told you so.
You have to go over the top, remember, she's coming all the way from the UK to see you, you have to do something to sweep her off her feet.
Movies is not good enough, nor is just dinner.
club is the easiest setting bc theres little pressure when no one else knows each other either. otherwise a nice park or movie would be nice, a small adventure that shows you like to do fun stuff
Definately not a drive in the mountains. I know you can get to know someone online pretty well, but i do know it's different once in person...It could be good or it could be a bit uncomfortable. I do believe (tho she may feel she knows you) that would be kind of terrifying. Since she is not from the USA it would be fun to go see some sights if that's an option. Also do things that you would normally do and see if that's something she enjoys as well. Introduce her to your culture.
i think its a little dangerous to go on a date with someone you have met online. this "girl" could be some buff bodybuilder who could sit on you or something...
dinner is a great idea, but even a place such as a festival where things can be fun just browsing around, winning things, and playing games, etc, etc .. it's a nice way to have fun, and to get to know each other and laughing, plus it's a nice way for you both to be who you are instead of wondering how to approach things .. then slowly start holding each other hands as you's walk around and take it from there ... just a thought!
My sister (from the UK) flew over to meet her American "boyfriend" for the first time and I'm trying to remember what he did. I think they went out for dinner the first night. They also seemed to end up in Vegas and the grand canyon. She said it was big.
this girl has been both of those places since she took a 2 month road trip through america. hell, the girls seen more of american than i have. how did they work out did she like him or could she not stand her americanisms?
She liked him well enough. She's fascinated with film stars so I guess she liked his accent. Although he had some strange hang-ups about sex. Not fair to the guy to discuss them here. What I will say, though, is that his family made her feel massively welcome and that his brother was a really funny guy that she connected with.
When he came over here, I'm not sure he felt as welcome. I enjoyed his company and I tried very hard to engage him. I think we got along just fine. But I don't think he felt comfortable here. I think he was okay in the presence of me and my sister, but other English people not so much.
The biggest difference was probably the parents. His parents were really welcoming. They made a huge effort. My parents were, hmm, okay. Pretty much no effort. They tried to be nice. Tried is the key word.
Dinner first, and see how it goes. If it goes well, do sometimg special on another day that she hasn't done before, something exciting, but not something too intimate because that would make her feel uncomfortable.
