I've paddled the Emerald Cut a few times now. Initially I didn't like the idea of paying to launch…read moremy own paddleboard. However, it's only $10 now that I have my own life jacket (saving me additional cost of $5 to use one of theirs, as required). Well worth the low cost for some soul-enriching, communing with nature. I have never made a reservation. I normally arrive around 10:30, most recently on a Friday. Parked for free on Baptist Camp Rd. Just a bit of a walk from there with my inflated paddleboard, but I don't mind the extra exercise. You can unload your stuff closer, if preferable. There are port-a-potties available. You can count on there being a line in the check-in office. Various recreation supplies are available there for purchase. The process moves reasonably enough. A reservation will guarantee your entrance, however, and possibly aide quicker personal info collection. I always plan to do the Emerald Cut in roughly 3 hours round-trip, allowing myself several stops to enjoy the surroundings. You do run into (quite literally at times) novice paddlers along the way, which can be a bit tricky, yet not a real nuisance for me. In general, there's friendliness along the waterway. Slighty rowdy, party vibes in some spots, but also opportunities for solace and zen in various nooks. Encountering wildlife, fragrant elderberry, and other captivating flora along this stretch is always gratifying. It's a popular recreation destination for good reason.

Many tourists don't realize Florida is home to stunning crystal-clear spring rivers--perfect for…read moreswimming, kayaking, and tubing aka "hidden gems". My Hubby and I love kayaking, so we booked an excursion months in advance for Rock Springs through TripAdvisor. Our Tour Operator was Get Up And Go Kayaking located at Kings Landing in Apopka, FL. I LOVE saying Apopka ;) The good news: Apopka is a quick 1 hour drive from Orlando. Make sure you don't miss the turn to King's Landing, because the entrance is located on a narrow dirt road. You must drive past Kelly Park (which fills up fast). There is a Park Ranger located here who will guide you to King's Landing. As you get closer and if you see a parking spot, grab it! Check in is located in the Cabin like office where you will have to sign a waiver. If you do not want to take a clear bottom, guided Kayak tour, you can either rent or BYO Kayak versus taking a semi private, clear, guided kayak tour. NOTE: ONLY use their Sunscreen/lotion which is provided at no cost. It protects the wildlife and the Springs. We wanted the full experience as we have previously enjoyed renting clear Kayaks. Our guide for the morning was: Megan, who was fantastic! Full of energy, information and helpful tidbits about the Springs and its human and wildlife inhabitants. Our group was small and capped at 10. We paddled through both narrow and open stretches, and stopped to swim in the warm, crystal-clear water. One highlight was a banyan tree with an 8-foot natural "jump hole"--such a cool experience! It was a serene, memorable day, and fun fact: this is the very spring featured in the Visit Orlando commercials! Yeah, definitely take a day away from crowded Orlando to relax and enjoy Mother Nature! You will Thank Me ;)

Knowledgeable staff willing to take time to talk. Unlike some other local shops, they don't have an issue if you want to buy from a well known online seller and have the firearm shipped to their store (for which they charge a flat fee). For me, that kind of customer-friendly outlook means I will return there for my gun and ammo needs. Their gunsmith is good. He squared away a handgun for me on my first visit. They have a small handgun range, it's not bad, but they need to step up their game in that department. They have a rudimentary pulley system for the targets, essentially like a clothesline. The day I visited the rope in my lane had knot in it and moving the pulley with the knotted rope was a bit problematic. 1 star short because they at least need to have more than a clothesline to move targets back and forth on the range. All things considered, a great and fun gun shop to visit.

Brinson Park was named for Dr. Haynes Brinson and his wife Agnes. Dr. Brinson moved to Kissimmee in…read more1923 from Georgia and practiced as a physician and surgeon until 1936. Agnes was active in social work and their church. In 1932 City Commissioners named Brinson Park in the couples honor. Brinson Park is a 3 acre open space park located next to Lakefront Park in Kissimmee. A linear park along Lakeshore Boulevard connects Brinson Park to Lakefront Park. Amenities at Brinson Park include BBQ grills, a fishing pier, picnic tables, restrooms that were added in 2015 and wetlands that attract a variety of wildlife. During my visit a family was enjoying a picnic and I admired the beautiful view while spotting several Florida wading birds. It is a pleasant place to walk and I like how it is connected to other parks.
