Catherine - 2
Disney offers two themed water parks in Orlando, Florida. Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. Typhoon Lagoon is the wreckage left as a result of a typhoon that swept through Florida dislodging and disarming boats, trees, slides, fishing gear, surfboards and the like leaving them where Mother Nature thought best. We’ll just save you the trouble and tell you right...
The Polite Pig located in Downtown Disney Springs in Orlando, Florida offers a swath of barbeque menu selections with a Disney price tag, and a serious lack of portion sizes. Politely put, the food here is hit and miss. If we had originally reviewed The Polite Pig after our first visit, we actually would have ranked this Disney Springs...
Dolphins, Sharks and Manatees, oh my! We joined the Time and Tide Tours in Port Canaveral prior to our sailing on the Disney Fantasy and it was an awesome way to learn about the port and the history of the area. We got to go fishing, see and hold aquatic wildlife, and watch a pod of dolphins swim in...

We have always been firmly planted in the Earl of Sandwich is our favorite place to eat in Orlando, Florida category.

Catherine - 0
Who knew that Key West was a little slice of the Caribbean just 3 hours southwest of Miami? It makes sense considering it is an island in the middle of the ocean, but I never figured it was covered in pastel painted victorian era style homes, towering mahogany trees lining the sidewalks and boulevards, and friendly pedestrian and bicycle...

Taste Testing Iconic Key Lime Pie in Key West, Florida with Kids | Where the Key Limes are Even Greener than the Grass
Catherine - 0
Let’s just start with the obvious cliché: No stop in Key West, Florida is complete without Key Lime Pie. We knew we had to have to it, we wanted it, and we bought it.
Ah, but where to buy it? Not one bakery seems to have an actual claim to possessing the original, or the first, Key Lime Pie...

Avatar Flight of Passage: Flying a Banshee Through the Floating Mountains of Pandora With Kids in Orlando, Florida at Walt Disney World
Catherine - 0
It was only a two hour wait in the suffocating heat of the Florida sun, the humidity made much worse by recent hurricanes traveling through the gulf. The twins and Daddy waited in line while I took Eclair to play in Dinoland at the excavation site. I only had to double back on the quarter of a mile between...
