Most restaurants in Orlando are child friendly but if your children are anything like ours they can at times be picky eaters, so I thought I would let you have a few ideas that we have picked up along the way whilst visiting Epcot. The Sunshin... Viewed 7644 times.
One of the most relaxing holidays you can have is cruising; cruising on a ship that is. On the other hand it can be one of the busiest and most hectic. Either way it will be what you want it to be. There are an abundance of cruises from Florida ports... Viewed 8608 times.

Even though our exchange rate is not at its best at the moment, it is still a good idea to shop in Orlando. It is about the same in dollars as it is in pounds to buy clothes in America. A good example of that is Ugg boots which are £179 here in the U... Viewed 7609 times.
Located at 5800 PGA Blvd (FL32839) Eaglewood is a par 3 golf course. On my visit to Orlando in August this year my 11-year-old son decided he wanted to play some golf. He can play but because of his age I felt that most local courses would be... Viewed 8837 times.
