Florida Villas - Old Town

The second of a series of features looking at some of the less well known attractions in Central Florida, close to Kissimmee.

Old Town originally started out, when constructed in the 1980s, as a specialist shopping complex and later morphed into an all round entertainment complex with an amusement park featuring multiple rides, being added.

The shopping zone is made up of nearly a dozen dedicated shopping buildings each with a number of different types of shop sharing the space. The shops run across the full range from electronic goods such as cameras and Ipads to luxury goods such as designer handbags. Each of the shopping buildings also boast a number of restaurants, again representing all categories from formal restaurant to multiple fast food establishments.

The amusement park rides are spread over the site, although predominantly to be found at the front and back. For those wanting to take part there are a number of different rides some catering to the thrill-seeker, while some are aimed at younger children. Tea Cups, Merry-go-round, Super Shot, Happy Days Family Go-Kart Track and the Windstorm Roller Coaster are just a few of the rides on offer.

Old Town’s particular appeal is to car enthusiasts, especially those with a liking for classic cars. There is a Saturday Night cruise of classic pre-1975 cars, open to anyone with a car and a valid driving license. To get you in the mood there is also music of the classic Rock and Roll variety. Friday night features another cruise, this time focusing on American muscle cars from before 1988.

Florida Villas - 10 Things to do in Miami

Many visitors to Florida split their time between the theme park attractions around Orlando and an alternative holiday base, giving them a chance to see a little more of Florida than just Walt Disney World. A frequent choice for that alternative is in and around Miami. Miami is located on the south-eastern coast of Florida, on the Atlantic coast and is a city of 500,000 people at the centre of a metropolitan area with a total population of nearly 5.5m. Miami has a tropical monsoon climate, with hot, humid summers and warm dry winters, making it a favoured destination for those snowbirds seeking to escape the worst of the North American winter. As well as its many other attractions the Port of Miami is famous for its cruises, riding the recent popularity for cruises to become the number one cruise port in the world.

Here are 10 things to do in Miami, not necessarily the most obvious;

#1 - Lock and Load Miami

Located just a short walk from mid-town Miami, this shooting gallery focuses on automatic weapons, providing packages for parties to experience the thrill of firing fully automatic firearms, in a safe and well ordered environment. Avoid if guns are not your thing!

Another one for the sports lover, this time American baseball, Marlins Park is home to the Miami Marlins and provides a fantastic venue. The atmosphere during the game is second to none and the retractable roof ensures the game always gets played.

#6 – Miami Trolley

Part of the Miami transport system (albeit a fairly recent addition) the Trolley is a good way to get around Miami and take in the sights. It isn’t expensive either but make sure you bring plenty of small change!

#7 – Lumus Park Beach
