I've been busy planning trips all over the US and Europe, but now it's my turn to take a trip! ✈
I'm headed to Orlando this week for a day at Islands of Adventure and then over to Port Canaveral for a cruise to the Bahamas on Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas. I'm super stoked, and can't wait to come back and share my experiences with you!
We all know that central Florida is home to some of the best theme parks in the country. However, they might not be exactly what you're looking for. Here are the top 5 must-do activities that AREN'T the Disney World or Universal:
1️⃣ Explore Icon Park – Take a ride on The Wheel for incredible views, enjoy great restaurants, and check out fun attractions like Madame Tussauds!
2️⃣ Visit Leu Gardens – Stroll through 50 acres of lush botanical gardens, perfect for a peaceful day in nature. 🌿
3️⃣ Go Kayaking at Wekiva Springs – Paddle through crystal-clear waters, spot wildlife, and enjoy Florida’s natural beauty. 🚣♂️
