Things To Do
Disney Springs
Disney Springs is a free-admission dining and entertainment destination where you can experience the magic of Disney without a park ticket, complete with shopping, restaurants, and live entertainment. It’s also where we had our first date!
Universal CityWalk Orlando
Universal CityWalk is a lively entertainment district filled with restaurants, bars, live music, and nightlife that can be enjoyed without needing a park ticket. Parking is free after 6 PM, making it a great evening spot to grab dinner, explore, and enjoy the atmosphere.
Cocoa Beach
Just about an hour from Orlando, Cocoa Beach offers a coastal escape where you can enjoy a classic Florida beach town. While you’re there, we recommend grabbing ice cream at The Fat Donkey Ice Cream, enjoying breakfast at Southern Charm Cafe, and stopping by Ron Jon Surf Shop—the world’s largest surf shop.
Dixie Cream Cafe
One of our favorite breakfast spots! It’s a cozy, local place known for its delicious homestyle meals and welcoming atmosphere—perfect for starting your day on a relaxed note.
Harry P Leu Gardens
Harry P. Leu Gardens is a beautiful 50-acre botanical garden just outside downtown Orlando, featuring winding paths, rose gardens, and shaded oak trees draped in Spanish moss. It’s a peaceful spot for a stroll, photos, or a relaxing break surrounded by lush Florida scenery.
