Discovering our Own Backyard!

REPOSTED from the i.seekissimmee.com website...

Hi there! My name is Audra Smith and I’m excited to take you along on our travels this week with i.seekissimmee.com! While I’ve grown up in the area, I’ve had the opportunity to travel & study abroad and even better, blog about my travels. Despite having lived in a variety of states and countries over the years, I consider myself to be a local and Kissimmee is my hometown. I’ve had lots of opportunities to visit the major theme parks and water parks – but now as I vacation with my family, I find myself looking at some of the local attractions that aren’t always right on the radar. Not to totally discount the fun that can be had at the larger theme parks, we plan on visiting a family favorite of ours… Sea World! For the rest of the week we intend to take on Central Florida [and by “we” I mean my husband, 2 daughters, and 3 nieces] to enjoy some of the area’s other charms with a brief excursion to visit Florida's "Oldest City" - St. Augustine.

"...join us as we explore our “backyard” and share our journeys for both locals and tourists alike!"

In preparation for our trip, I’ve had the chance to work with some fantastic people who have helped to facilitate some of our outings. We are truly looking forward to a wonderful week of fun-filled adventures with the family. Just a glimpse of where our travels will take us: a day at the WhirlyDome, dinner and a mystery at Sleuth’s Dinner Show, soaking up the sun at the Cypress Springs Family Fun Water Park and a luxurious nights' stay at the Gaylord Palms Hotel! To top it all off, we have a special occasion (our 1^st Anniversary!) and we get to enjoy Independence Day with Kissimmee’s Monumental July 4^th Celebration! That’s not all of our adventure, we’ll be sure to keep you posted on the rest of the fun! Keep checking back and join us as we explore our “backyard” and share our journeys for both locals and tourists alike!
