Florida experience

One of my main travel destinations includes Orlando FL, my family always tries to vacation there once or twice a year.  I have always enjoyed being able to travel Walt Disney World, even now that I am growing up. Since I have been able to drive or fly down with my parents, it has really helped to shape who I am and how I act. It was always the most exciting time of my life; being able to see all of the characters and get their autographs while being able to take pictures with them, now that's is every kid’s dream. My favorite trip to Disney would shockingly be the time that I had broken my arm. Now I know it sounds strange but I thought that I was the coolest for being able to have all of my favorite characters sign my pink cast. As I got older of course my favorite things changed to fit who I was. Such as when I started to enjoy the many different attractions that Disney had to offer; space mountain, Expedition Everest, Soaring, and so much more.

Each Disney Vacation was very different in its own way. My family would either stay at a Disney Resort or in a rented home. Usually, we would stay at Port Orleans Riverside, a beautiful resort with a beautiful view of the river and the many palm trees Florida had to offer. Now the Resort was nice because we had luxury of being close to the parks and having reliable transportation each day, the resort was only bad because with a family of five the rooms can get extremely crowed, and the prices were very high. The Rented Homes were amazing! For lower costs, the home offered four large bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large kitchen, and a small pool and spa. It was perfect, minus the fact that you had to drive yourself into Disney. Each place is an ideal location to vacation it really just depends on personal preference.          
While we were down in Orlando we also got to eat at some amazing and different restaurants that we don’t have in Michigan; Manny’s chop house and Tommy V’s. Now if you have never eaten at Manny’s original chophouse you are really missing out. You should probably get on that right away! Located about five miles off the strip, it is the best place to sit down with your family and enjoy a flavorful meal. In my opinion it is the best Steak place I have ever eaten at. The food is always cooked fresh and the proportions are huge. Tommy V’s is a little pizza place, now by the location it’s in you would think it would be unsafe to eat in. It’s located in a little strip mall next to a tattoo shop and a doctor’s office. Weird I know but their pizza is phenomenal.

When you travel to Florida there is so much more to experience then just visiting Walt Disney World or the beach. Try not to limit yourself as much as possible. Also I will give you a fair warning to NOT EAT ON THE STRIP, it is a tourist trap. The food is awful and is made to service the thousands and thousands of people that travel on the strip each day.
I know that some people haven’t even traveled to Florida in their lifetime but I would highly recommend going their! It’s worth every penny.
