      The Single Most Worst thing You can ever hear is………. DEPART FROM ME, I NEVER KNEW YOU….

    I loved this vlog! I grew up in Winter Park and currently live in Lake Mary, I haven't done half of these things! Makes me want to go explore my stomping grounds. I love the Winter Park chain of lakes, dinky dock is such an awesome hang out spot, bring your dogs, get a pub sub and just watch the jet skis and boats go by. Again, such a nice vlog! Thanks!

This video is so beautiful and I love that you show the off-the-beaten path things to do. Orlando is so much more than theme parks. If you make it to Gideon’s and have the key lime cookie, let me know how it is! I adore their cookies and that sounds heavenly. 🥰

And your video has given me so many wonderful ideas on what to experience in the area! Thank you so much for highlighting these lesser-known places, in comparison to the theme parks of course that get all of the attention. I love going to Disney, but have really wanted to explore this beautiful area we live now... I just didn't know where to start! Truly so helpful, Allison! Thank you. And my husband is a foodie too so I certainly know he'll enjoy all of these delicious spots! 💖
