To cut to the chase I'd love to move to America; it's something I've said for a few years now and my goal is to find a decent job, pack our bags and leave. But for now I've got a few year's worth of photos to look back through if I ever start feeling nostalgic. Here's what we got up to this time -
We spent a lot of time down at the local town of Celebration - days
filled with relaxing by the lake, drinking the best filtered coffee and
checking out the local shops. Evenings spent in similar fashion; working our way through the craft beer menu at the Town Tavern (immense Boston food too), at Market Street Cafe for shakes or drowning ourselves in salted cameral ice-cream at Kilwins.
No trip to Orlando would be complete without some G-Force action - we whizzed around both Universal Studios + Islands of Adventure in one day! The newish Harry Potter area is definitely the crowd pleaser at the moment but my personal highlight was visiting The Simpsons area; seriously guys Springfield looked incredible! Duff beer on tap, Lard Lad Donuts the size of your face...I just wish we had the brains to eat at Moe's and not a rushed hot dog earlier on!
As always I was trigger happy in the supermarkets + shops, looking for packaging to pique my interest, I'll leave that for part 2!
Hope you enjoyed this one, have a lovely weekend folks!

Ah, I'm so glad I came across your blog I feel like I can live through someone else's Florida trips now too. I just posted about how much I missed being in Orlando (especially for fourth of July). I spent a lot of time in Celebration on my last trip and paid a visit to Town Tavern as well. Great photos, looking forward to part two!
ReplyDeleteMore more more! I love reading about people's travels. Memories, experiences, thoughts, sights, sounds...thats the stuff that makes life great.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe that there is a place called Celebration. Made me smile.
I've never been to Orlando before, but visiting the Simpsons area at Universal would be on the top of my list if I go!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering when you would post vacay pics! I like seeing how people who aren't American do America. Haha.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are amazing! I have been to San Fansisco which was brilliant, but I've never ventured any where else in the US yet - there are so many places on my to visit list though, I am going to have to put Florida on there too now!
ReplyDeleteI'm desperate to visit the US again, having to settle for travelling around Europe ;-) Keep on postin', looking forward to part 2! x
ReplyDeleteLove the photos Mat! Would love to visit Florida one day!
ReplyDeleteyou're making me want to visit florida! i haven't been in a few years!
ReplyDeleteI've only been to Orlando once, and it was years ago. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun and saw some amazing stuff. Can't wait to see more :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun - I didn't realise there was a Simpsons section of Universal studios!
