After visiting two disappointing parks in a row, I was worried that the world was setting me up for a three-peat. But I had high hopes that when I explored Festival Park that this streak would become broken. Lets see what happened. Festival Park is right near the Orlando Executive Airport. With many side streets dividing the park into sets

Exploring the World With Pokemon Go: East Orange Park

Admin/ January 4, 2019/ Travel

Today I saw a place called East Orange Park near where East Colonial Drive (State Road 50) and Toll Road 408 cross. I became excited at the prospect of checking out a larger place today given what had occurred yesterday. Sadly, I made a mistake in where I chose once again. It is actually a disservice to say that there

Hourglass park is situated between two parts of a lake that is in the shape of the name. Hourglass Lake itself is secluded in a neighborhood right near Curry Ford Road (State Road 552) and Ferncreek Avenue.

Admin/ January 2, 2019/ Travel

Right next to the Greenwood Cemetery that this area shares its name with sits Greenwood Urban Wetlands. Pleased with what I found at an early urban wetlands park, I set out to explore this one too. To the surprise of no one who is reading this, wetlands are well… wet. Since I love taking pictures of lakes and marshes, here

Admin/ January 1, 2019/ Travel

Mitchell Nutter Park is located right on the edge of Baldwin Park. This well to do neighborhood in Orlando has many places that are incredibly walk-able.

Admin/ December 28, 2018/ Travel

For those who play Pokemon Go in the Orlando region, Cranes Roost Park hardly needs an introduction. For those uninitiated, this park is around a massive lake in Altomonte Springs Florida. However, despite almost every park I have visited so far also being set around a lake, this area is different for many reasons from the rest. Let’s talk about

Exploring the World With Pokemon Go: Leroy Hoequist Park

Admin/ December 27, 2018/ Travel

Just to the east of La Costa Wetlands, the very first park I explored in this travel blog sits another. And these two areas could not be much different if they tried. Much more open and with signs of civilization all around it, one would not beleive that Leroy Hoequist Park could be so near to an isolated marsh. It
