Fascinating Florida Part 1

2/26/2018

1 Comment

 
Spring 2018 is dedicated to Florida, you can make a round trip with me starting and arriving to Miami in the end. Let's reveal the different faces of this state! In March we will visit Miami, Daytona beach, the NASA and crazy theme parks around Orlando. Discover the Orange county with me!


Miami - the multicultural city


The city is real metropolis: sunny beaches with huge stretch of white sand, lovely weather, chic restaurants, world-class boutiques. At the first sight the place is just so posh and cool, it’s famous for being the ultimate party playground for rich and famous. Due to the jet-lag I woke up so early, I was able to catch the sunrise and had a walk on the beach. Nothing beats a walk early morning: crashing waves, untouched sand, peaceful atmosphere.

The Harrison Hotel in Miami was simple, but clean and it was just an easy walk to the beach. I was amazed by the huge yachts, the dazzling city.

Culinary programs

There are a lot of restaurants with Latin influence and Cuban atmosphere. If you are interested in such tours, enroll to a food tour downtown:  Havana and the South Beach Food Tours are the best.


Daytona Beach - Born to be wild!

Just a few hours ride to the North we arrive to the world's most famous beach. It's a unique place of the Atlantic coast: Great, wide sandy beach, endless ocean, there is always something going on here. The whole beach is a party place and Daytona especially comes alive when the yearly Bike Week is organized. This year they celebrate the 77th anniversary. It's a street festival with bike shows, races, concerts all week. I was lucky to drop by last time and checked it out for 2 days. If you are seeking for relaxation, avoid this time of the year! The city also hosts February’s iconic NASCAR race.

Beach time
I was staying at Boardwalk Inn & Suites, it's a perfectly located hotel a few steps away from the beach, plus the biker programs were nearby. Daytime I was admiring the ocean, had a sunbath and a good swim in the pool.

Kennedy Space Center - Road to space

After the Daytona party nights, I was heading to the South to visit the Kennedy Space Center complex.  It's NASA's primary launch center of human spaceflight, the Apollo launch was carried out here as well, Elon Musk's Falcon Heavy's successful trial started here last month. The Apollo moon landing was a very important moment in history, what you can also experience with 3D theatrical elements at the NASA center. The whole place is very well organized, guided tours take place several times a day. It's so exciting to experience a rocket launch, you can hear the roar and feel the rumble under your feet. Priceless experience!

Orlando's huge playgrounds

Sea World
If you are a fan of thrilling coasters, beautiful aquariums and entertainment at all levels, Sea World is for you. The place is kid-friendly as well. There are numerous special rides, the Manta coaster is unique all over the world. It's a ray-shaped train reaching top speeds of 56 miles per hour (90 km/h). Craziness on top! There are other fun coasters, like the Atlantis and the Kraken (see below).

Walt Disney World

I visited Walt Disney World with my parents when I was 16, since that I was back to Florida a few times. We spent a whole week at the Disney complex. Unfortunately I don't have many photos about it. It's a magical entertainment park near Orlando. If you have time and you appreciate these kind of theme parks, don't miss the chance to visit it! I personally enjoyed two sites the most: The Animal Kingdom, it's completely dedicated to nature and animals, it's like a magical zoo. The other one is the EPCOT center. It consists of fun rides and world showcases, in the frame of that you can visit different countries around the world, taste their food, deep into the culture and see what other countries have to offer. I remember the gorgeous fireworks each night before closing. It's a place, that's suitable for families as well.

Traveling should be important to every single one of us. I know that traveling can cost a lot and take a lot of time from you, but believe me, it is all worth it. If you just stay in one place for the entirety of your life, then you will regret it. I know that there are some people who are fond of staying, but that is because they are not aware about the gifts of traveling. I hope that you can seize the moment.
