K for A-Z Challenge

 

K-Kissimmee, Florida

 
 
Don't you love the name? It came from the word (cacema) and Indian name meaning (long water) and has nothing to do with kissing:)

All of the well known attractions are close by but slip out the backdoor on your Kissimmee vacation and the amazing world of native Florida comes to life. The swamps and scrub flow into working cattle ranches, massive lakes and streams, and amazing wildlife. 


See Kissimmee from the air and have a once in a lifetime experience!!

"These are not simulators!!! This is the real thing. Come fly like the aces of yesteryear in some of the most significant military aircraft in history and prepare yourself for the experience of a lifetime! Whether you want a thrilling aerobatic adventure or a smooth straight-and-level flight, the experience will never be forgotten. Great for first time fliers, nostalgia buffs, modelers and pilots. You take the controls in the front seat for your Discovery flight and one of our very experienced instructors will teach you everything you want to learn about flying these beautiful pieces of history. It's a 100% hands on experience..."

 
 
 
 
 
Maybe this is more your speed and closer to nature.
 
 
Or even better how about sitting and having a lovely dinner and just watch the action at the the
 
 
Yes indeed they have wonderful horses known for their strength, agility and temperament and theses
 
 Spanish Andalusian stallions are one of the best parts of the show.
 
The seated knights atop these beauties are impressive with their skills and joust for honor, chivalry, glory and the roars of the crowd. The festivities end with a royal falconer
 that demonstrates his strong and powerful abilities as a bird of prey.


  For a topnotch trill you should give Skycoaster a try!

 
 
 
 
and for you fishermen out there......Many of the bass in the Kissimmee area top 10 pounds and have been recorded in the 17 lb + range!
 
 
 Giant Large Mouth live here!
 
 
 Don't miss the monument of states.
 
 
 
 
 
 and stop by Shell World before you head home...
 
 for a special keepsake or to get your picture taken with their clever advertisement.

 
Happy Trails

My nephew and his family lived near Kissimmee several years ago. They loved the area.
