DH's 50th this year

[kitch50]

Hi

It is my DH's 50th birthday later in the year and as we are going to FL in October (yay) I am trying to think of something exciting for him to do while we are there as a birthday present....

Any ideas would be welcome [msnsmile2]

Hot air balloon ride, or they do some behind the scenes type tours at Disney, or hire a sports car or a hummer. I'm sure there's lots of other things too but there's a start for you! When is Gary's big day?

Hi Caroline,

Gary's birthday is 27th December so I know October is a bit early but it would be nice to do something different as it is the big 50....

Ooooh spooky my Dave's birthday is 27th December too! He's a couple of years in front of Gary though [msnwink]

how about the Gun experience- does he have any interests such as golf or Footy? or how about the Richard Petty racecar experience, or waterskiing?

Does he like Seaworld? They do a 'Trainer for a day' package which my daughter did on their last visit in March. They were absolutely blown away by it and got up close to the penguins, dolphins, etc and also the Buluga Whales. They have some amazing photos.

They have also done Discovery Cove a couple of times and loved that too.

Alternatively there is a National Park just north of Clearwater where you can hire a boat for the day to sail along the river and watch the wildlife or swim. The name escapes me just now but I am sure someone on here will enlighten us. There is a chance you will encounter Manatees in this area.

Have a great time whatever you do

I can highly recommend the hot air balloon ride !

I am sure that Martin used to sell the hot air balloon ride on this site but I can't seem to find it now unless I am going blind ....

I thought he did too post a question in the tickets part of the forum and I'm sure he'll clarify.

My husband was 40 when we were in Orlando a couple of years ago, he flew a plane in Kissimmee and enjoyed every second, can't remember the name of the airport though
