Florida Road TripFebruary 5 - 8, 2026
After enjoying 4-nights on the Rise and Rhythm Cruise, we finished off the rest of the week by doing a road trip through Central Florida and the Tampa region. I just love visiting quirky road side attractions.
Things I Really Enjoyed
- FloridaRAMA: FloridaRAMA is an artistic exhibit that celebrates Flordia through psychedelic lights, detailed dioramas, and anything else that came to the creative minds of the artists.
- Presidents Hall of Fame: This small attraction contains wax figures of presidents and first ladies along with informative videos and panels. The crown jewel of this attraction is the very detailed model of the White House.
- Three Sisters Springs: I was finally able to see a manatee in the wild. In fact, I saw hundreds of them because the manatees congregate in these clear waters during the winter months.
- Holiday Inn Express & Suites Clermont SE – West Orlando: When booking this hotel, we did not realize that it is on the grounds of the Summer Bay Resort. Our booking gave us access to all of the resort's amenities.
Things I Would Do Differently
- Nothing
