Kissimmee

Sure, we live in that constant shadow of just being near theme parks, but most of us dont spend every saturday on space mountain, We do have lots of cool stuff to do in this area.

There is A nice old fashioned downtown with diners serving real food, i recommend Mrs Macs for a great breakfast for practically nothing. Lake Toho, just off main street is the best Bass fishing lake in the south, if not the US. There is a nice park for boating, picnics, a water feature for kids, an ice cream shop and a great covered playground for kids. The lakefront hosts many events during the spring and fall..

Alot of what people see when they come to kissimmee isnt what makes it home to us. Yes, its not very near the beach, not very ritzy, but its got a genuine small town feel. Im not saying i want to die here, but there are certainly things to do that make it worth the trip.

I stayed in Kissimmee when visiting TNA in Orlando.

In short, you’re miles from anywhere apart from the gigantic motorways you have to cross to get to restraunts or shops. There’s a fun car show near one of the lower mile-markers on 192, but when you’ve seen it once there’s no point in going for a second night.

The place we stayed ran courtesy buses to Universal, Epcot, & Disney which is a big plus. But it’s about the only plus.

in 1983 I went for a month to visit my old boy friend it was end of july & first of august, it rained every day and you could not even play in it w/o getting 3rd deg. burns I did get an awsome tan but my hair turned redder, I lost around 15 lbs. the boyfriend did not beleive in having food at the house and we had no car, I looked great when we got home
