Flying high in Orlando
I love the idea of skydiving. It’s not something I would ever do because I’m not a fan of flying and those little planes that take you up for your skydive put me right off. Also, there’s something that feels odd about doing bonkers stuff like that when you’ve got a tribe of little people. […]

Initially you think, surely this place can’t compete with the likes of Magic Kingdom and the whole Disney thing, […]
Things to do in Orlando with a family: Medieval Times Dinner Show
Orlando is rammed with places to eat. You can pretty much find any type of food in all the restaurants there, and you don’t have to move very far to find something. You certainly won’t be searching for somewhere to eat – more like trying to decide where to try next! If you have space […]
