There's More to Orlando Than Mickey!

The first thing that pops into most people’s minds when they think of Orlando is Mickey Mouse and Disney World, but the bustling city offers so much more. Credit Union Times asked some local credit union leaders to offer up some local flavor advice on must see attractions while in Orlando.

Everyone almost automatically thinks about our great theme parks. Visitors may not realize that Orlando is a thriving city with a great downtown area. On a nice day, I would encourage you to check out our thriving downtown area and take a walk around beautiful Lake Eola where you can even take a Swan shaped paddleboat out on the water! You can go shopping in Thorton Park or have a bite to eat while sitting outside at a great restaurant downtown. Orlando is more than just a theme park, so I always encourage visitors to check out some of our city’s other great attractions!
