I’ll be honest: we’re definitely thinking about the quickie getaway vacation – the one where you can pack up the kids, and spend a few blissful days frolicking in the sun and enjoying the beach. That’s why we’re taking a look at some great places in Florida today.

If it’s the nightlife and wicked clubs you’re after – Miami is the place for you. If you’re granting the kids’ wishes to meet Mickey and Minnie, maybe Orlando is for you. And if it’s just a quick, beachy getaway you’re after, make sure to check out Ft. Lauderdale.

Orlando:

The kids have been asking to visit Mickey and Minnie for quite some time now (and let’s admit it… you’ve been wondering what they’re like too), so it might be time to pack up the family and head south to the Disney Castle. Disney aside, there is much to see and do in Orlando that will keep the family busy for days. SeaWorld, great shopping and dining will have you out exploring everything Orlando has to offer:
