Life on Florida’s West Coast

What to Do in Florida: Orlando

I have Orlando on the brain, because I am getting plans together for my daughter’s birthday this coming February and we will be going to Orlando overnight with one of my best friends and her daughter, who is one of my daughter’s best friends, so that we can got o the Princesses and Pirates party at the Magic Kingdom again. We loved it last year. We will also more than likely hit another park the following day.

So, I got to thinking about how although Orlando is the absolute perfect family vacation destination in perhaps the entire world, there is actually so much to do there that it can get overwhelming for those who visit from out of the area. There are theme parks, theme restaurants, museums, water parks, golf courses, botanical gardens, wild animal exhibits, easy access to amazing beaches, outlet malls and just about any cuisine you could ever ask for. There are inexpensive hotels, lavish resorts, and a plethora of privately owned homes available for rent. You can craft a vacation to meet any budget and still have a blast.

And, this is the most wonderful time of the year to visit Florida. We have sun and flowers and blue skies and, lovely warm days, all without the humidity, crowds and bugs.

I think the best place to start when trying to navigate Orlando is to find a reliable city guide, like the one at Hotels By City. Although the site is primary an expansive guide to the world’s hotel, it also doubles as a reputable overall city guide, highlighting area attractions and more. Of course, if you are looking for a Europe hotel guide, this is the site for that, too.
