old town kissimmee is a great place to visit. There are some great shops, if you haven't had enough of rides there are some more. There is the Skycoaster if you want to be tethered 300 feet in the air. Theres also a slingshot reversed bungeee.
There is on a Saturday evening a car show with some amazing Hot Rods, Custom Cars and Classic American cars. We went one night and there were over 200 cars.
They also have a bike night.
I will put on a link when i'm able

Keith the old town I think is amazing.I love the car night and the bike night they had a crowd of guys from the California west coast choppers over. Wow. There are some good bars in there as well

Its a bit novelty, not stunningly clean but its got the cars for me on a Sat night. Its a bit scrubby at the end. The haunted house in the middle and the cast was a little freaky as we always go to Florida for Halloween.

It provides a bit of a break from the big parks

I'll have to have a look, probably lots of cars, mainly on moving pics. Wil have a look tomorrow. Its a great night on car night as they put on live bands. Can't recall the food being great there thoug although from memory theres a western sizzler across the road or Burger King on site.

:yes: You can view the cars as they arrive and park up too. Lots of them open their bonnets etc beforehand.

It's one that really divides people but I love it :yes: It's a bit grubby but I think it's great. The cars are brilliant and the skycoaster is just something else! I'll have to dig out the video of me in it from '05.
There is a great little american bar that does the BEST food over the road, too :yes: It's called 'Logan's roadhouse' I think it's a chain restaurant/bar but the food is excellent and the staff are really friendly. I don't think there'd be much there for me now I'm a vegetarian but I'd honestly go for the bread rolls alone!
