Have you ever dreamed of going to the happiest place on earth? You know, the place where characters come to life and a new adventure awaits around every corner? Whether it be Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot or Hollywood Studios, Minnie Mouse is one of the many Disney characters I look forwards to every year.
The Drive
On March 9th, 2019, we finally made it to our destination – Kissimmee, Florida after an extremely l-o-n-g drive with my grandparents. The drive wasn’t terrible, except my sister was motion sick for most of it. Driving for twelve hours for 2 days is boring enough, let alone being stuck in the back seat with someone who has a fever and wants to puke!
Our House
We couldn’t get into our gated community until 4pm, so we went out for lunch with my Aunt, Uncle and cousins who were lucky enough to FLY to Florida. Lunch was okay. It was really hard to be truly hungry when you had been snacking for 24 hours. FINALLY, when it was 4pm we drove into the familiar subdivision of Windsor Hills. This was our 8th year returning. Always a different house, but always the same excitement of our own pool, spa, games room and clubhouse!
Things To Remember When Staying in Kissimmeee
-geckos are everywhere – keep the doors closed
-child safety alarm – goes off EVERY time sliding door to pool is opened, so remember to press button to deactivate alarm before opening door
-internet connection is slow….be patient and it will eventually work
-believe and take caution of signs up in community – there are venomous snakes and alligators in the ponds surrounding the homes (this one freaks me out a bit!)
The journey to Orlando is finally over. Now just pure relaxation – no snow and most importantly NO SCHOOL!

You’re introduction is great! As I was reading the blog, there was a smile on my face! It was a funny time reading about your sister being car sick for most of the time.

Very well written Anna!! Your blog has very good information with great detail. I go to Florida at least once a year and I always go to Disney. My favourite character is Minnie Mouse as well. If I ever end up staying is Kissimmee I will remember to keep my screen door closed because of all the geckos that could possibly get in if it’s left open. Very well done!

This article is so useful becuase it shows me tips about Kissimmee where maybe my family may go in the future. These tips were so useful espesially the Child saftey alram becuase I enjoy swiming so I would go to the pool. a lot So with your tip of saying that dont forget to press the button to deactivate alarm before opening door, will save me from hearing a loud alarm each time I go threw the pool door.

Good job! I can tell you had a amazing trip and I’ve definitlty learned some useful things to remember if I ever stay in Kissimmeee. For example, the internet is something I use most of the time in my day and you said it’s pretty slow in Kissimeee which will make me impatient. But I’ve now learned if I’m patient it will work it just takes some time. Also, seems like there was many signs up in the community that you had to be aware of so you don’t encounter venomous animals. So I’ve learned to be aware of those signs and read them so I won’t encounter a dangerous situation if I ever go to Kissimmeee or even somewhere else. Thank you for these things I should remember if I go to Kissimmeee.
