Top Experiences in Orlando: From Disney to Discovery Cove

Day 1: Arrival & Disney Springs

We kicked off our Thanksgiving week adventure by arriving in Orlando and checking in at The Fountains Resort, a beautiful spot to call home for the week. After settling in, we made our way to Disney Springs, the perfect place to start our trip.

For dinner, we dined at the exciting, dinosaur-themed T-REX restaurant, followed by a sweet treat at Sprinkles. We then took a leisurely walk through the enchanting Christmas Tree Trail, soaking in the holiday magic.

Day 2: Disney World Park Hopper Adventure

We dedicated this day to exploring Disney World with a park hopper pass. Our morning started at Hollywood Studios, where we enjoyed thrilling rides and immersive attractions.

In the afternoon, we hopped over to Magic Kingdom, where we relived childhood memories and experienced classic rides. We ended the night with the spectacular fireworks show over Cinderella’s Castle, a truly magical moment.

Day 3: Discovery Cove Experience

For a change of pace, we spent a full day at Discovery Cove, an oasis of relaxation and adventure.

We had the incredible opportunity to swim with rays, walk among the flamingos, and even swim with dolphins—an unforgettable experience that made for a highlight of our trip.

Day 4: Seaworld Adventure

We continued our marine-themed fun with a visit to Seaworld. The day was filled with exciting rides, captivating orca and dolphin shows, and an up-close encounter with the adorable penguins.

For dinner, we opted for a quirky and nostalgic experience at the World’s Largest McDonald’s, where we enjoyed unique menu offerings and arcade games.

Day 5: Thanksgiving Day Relaxation

After several action-packed days, we embraced a slower pace and relaxed at the resort, taking advantage of the pools and amenities. Instead of a traditional Thanksgiving meal, we opted for something different—sushi for dinner, a fun and unconventional way to celebrate the holiday.

Day 6: Heading Home

With a heart full of memories, it was time to head home, wrapping up an amazing week in Orlando. This trip was the perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and holiday spirit, making for a Thanksgiving we’ll never forget!
