PLACES TO GO THAT ARE FREE!
(I recommend going anywhere first thing in the morning as everywhere builds up with crowds around noon).
DISNEY SPRINGS- LOTS of shopping, restaurants and Disney Stores. Park in LIME garage parking for closest walking to shops.
CELEBRATION SQ- Quaint shops and Cafes. Great walking around a man made lake with trails. VERY beautiful to walk around in.
DISNEY'S BOARDWALK- You need to bring your drivers license to get through gates and sometimes they ask why your coming in, we just say we have reservation at the pizza place lol. This boardwalk is SO SO nice and is connected to a bunch of Disney resorts and Hotels so that's why they ask visitors why they're coming in if they aren't staying at one. There is lots of yummy places to eat and you can be nosey and check out all the resorts! Who doesn't love people watching? lol
WINTER PARK- About an hour outside where we were staying but great for a change of scenery. Lots of cafe's/restaurants and little shops (a bit upper end) but lots to see and do!
MILLENIA MALL/FLORIDA MALL- Personally I prefer Millenia Mall. I find it less crowded and a lot better. Personal preference obviously. PERFECT for a rainy day plan. (Florida has a lower tax so take advantage of your shopping!)
PREMIUM ORLANDO OUTLETS- This is on International Dr. LOTS of discounts. Great Shopping, okay food Hall but there are restaurants all around that area so you can grab something to eat after you shop!
OUR FAVOURITE RESTUARANTS (CHILD FRIENDLY)
CRACKER BARREL-
It's a classic place for us to go as its so nostalgic for me. I grew up coming to FLA every year and we always went the first morning we arrived! Good ol' cooking that's hearty and comforting. Cute shop as well before you go into restaurant!
CHICK-FIL-A-
Fast food that doesn't leave you feeling gross. BEST CHICKEN EVER!!! Also get their house sauce, I dream about it lol.
CHUY'S-
Tex-Mex style that our friends brought us to. SOOO yummy if you have a big appetite. Plus, bottomless chips and salsa!!
CARRABBAS-
Italian and has never disappointed! Great if you want a dish that everyone in the family will love. Something for everyone! Plus my Mom said their sangria was amazing...next year I'll try it! preggo probz lol
