I Want To Go To DisneyWorld!
When you think of Florida, what comes to mind? Beaches, palm trees, the sun and DISNEYWORLD! This is the total dream vacation for any child. You've got Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and all those fun, sweet Disney characters greeting you throughout the park. It's always fun to take pictures with them all, even for the parents.
You've got the Magic Kingdom designed like a wheel with the hub in front of Cinderella Castle, the Epcot Center, Disney's Hollywood Studios, the Animal Kingdom Park and so many other attractions to experience while you're at DisneyWorld. It's an endless world of adventure and fun for the whole family that you just don't want to miss out on!
Swim With The Dolphins
Do you remember the movie and 1960's TV program, Flipper? Do you recall thinking how lucky that kid was to have a dolphin as his best buddy and to be able to swim with him? Dolphins just seem like such happy little creatures with that perma-grin and their squeaky noises.
Would you be excited if I told you that in the Florida Keys you can actually experience this for yourself? Well believe it! There are actually three different places in the Florida Keys that you can check off one of the things on your "to-do list" to swim with the dolphins. Come on, you've got to do it at least once in your lifetime and be like Sandy and Bud on Flipper. You know you'll be singing the theme song until you're in the water with your own dolphin friends.
Fly Up And Away At The Kennedy Space Center
Do you remember when you were a kid and your teacher asked you what you wanted to be when you grow up? I remember several of the kids in my 2nd grade class wanting to be astronauts. I wanted to be a mix between an astronaut, architect, and doctor. Quite the feat for anyone! My main goal was to discover Planet X. I even wrote that in a letter to myself and put it in a time capsule that I didn't open for 25 years.
What better place to experience what it's like to be an astronaut and the amazing things that go on up in space than Kennedy Space Center in Orlando, Florida? I've always wanted to know what it felt like to float in zero gravity. How about going through an astronaut-like training with your family? This is possible at the Kennedy Space Center! That wasn't available back when I was a kid. I would've been all over that!
