Things to do in Florida

Universal's Islands of Adventure
Situated in the city of Orlando, but not in the downtown area that is often quite congested, in fact, more like a world of their own, that the company did construct itself is the best attraction in the city for families that are looking to spend a fantastic day of adventure, excitement and thrills. The park's overall theme is one of a journey of explorations, where you will depart from the main port, or entrance, into six, and now seven, unique islands of adventure. The latest and greatest, of course, is one that the entire world has learned about and that is the Wizarding World of Harry Potter that opened in 2010 and became the seventh island. The park welcomed some 4.5 million visitors in 2009, making it number 9 in the United States as far as rankings, but that was before the new adventure of Harry Potter opened, so the numbers will certainly have increased during 2010, although the rest of the nation was going through a difficult economy. The themed islands include; Port of Entry, Marvel Super Hero Island, Toon Lagoon, Jurassic Park, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the Lost Continent and Seuss Landing. The islands are as exciting as they sound, with plenty of adventures for every member of the family, and not a moment to spare either, because it is a large park, with many places to see and visit, along with a few meals or snacks that are needed to help you keep your energy up to par and more if you're able. It is a fantastic adventure to be sure, and one that really can't be finished in one day, because of the enormous crowds of people that visit here, that in turn, create long lines that wait for each and every ride, although the lines in Potterville is longer than the others since it is a new one, and one that children of all ages desire to see and visit. There is so much to do here that it would be impossible to describe it all at one time, so the best idea would be for you to visit their website, when you have some time and peruse it at your leisure; but be sure to do it before you come so you aren't one of those families that is left standing around in one spot for a few minutes trying to decide where to head first and how to get there. Be sure to get a map that shows all the sights that you want to see and then chose the ones that you believe to be less crowded, because the best ones will fill up with long lines right off the bat and you may spend half the morning or day waiting in line for a chance to see Harry Potter. There are plenty of places to see and rides to visit, so that you'll never be disappointed unless you don't get to visit or ride what you really wanted to in the first place. Wear very comfortable shoes, and not open shoes, like flip flops, since you might be riding those outrageous Twin Dragons that will tear off any shoes not tied to your feet. Wear clothes in layers if it is in the seasons other than summer, which is hot, humid and hot. Be sure to bring a lot of lotion, suntan lotion for you and your family as it will be worn off within a couple of hours and will need to be reapplied. Bring one of those light ponchos for rain and bring a backpack so you can put extra socks and clothes in it. And hey, have a great time!

Jacksonville Museum of Modern Art
The Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville is well known as MOCA Jacksonville and is a cultural resource for the University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Florida that is now one of the biggest contemporary art facilities in the southeastern United States, with exhibitions of regional, national and international artists. It was started in 1924 as the Jacksonville Fine Arts Society, and was the first institution in the region devoted to the visual arts. It would be incorporated in 1948 as the Jacksonville Art Museum and in 1978 would become accredited by the AAM. It would move into its permanent home in 1999, the old historic Western Union Telegraph Building on Hemming Plaza and be renamed to its current name that same year. There are six floors that total some 60,000 square feet of display space, with a museum shop, the Cafe Nola, educational rooms, a theater/auditorium and the galleries. The museum has grown into the cornerstone of the downtown revitalization and has enjoyed excellent growth and quality. It contains 800 outstanding pieces of magnificent artworks and includes works by Ed Parchke, Joan Mitchell, Hans Hofmann and James Rosenquist, along with many other great contemporary artists. The museum would become part of the university in 2009 so that it could become part of the college's resources. MOCA primarily collects works that were produced from 1960 to the current day and includes works of photography, prints, sculpture and paintings. Other famous artists works housed here include; Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Longo, Alex Katz, Helen Frankenthaler, Philip Pearlstein, Jules Olitski, Jim Dine and Paul Jenkins.

Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
Vizcaya, or the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens as it is known now is a magnificent landmark villa and estate of the former businessman James Deering of the Deering McCormick-International Harvester fortune, that is situated on the Biscayne Bay in the Coconut district of Miami, Florida. This elegant early 20th century estate includes; native woodland landscaping, the beautiful extensive Italian renaissance gardens and the historical village outbuildings complex. Miami-Dade County owns the estate now, which had originally 180 acres of shoreline mangrove swamps and thick inland native tropical forests. Deering was a conservationist and wanted the development of his estate to be constructed along the shore line so that the forests would be protected and not bothered in any way. The marvelous villa would be constructed between 1914 and 1919, but the gardens and village would be continued until they were finished in 1923. In the period around WWI, supplies and building tradesmen would be difficult to acquire in the state, but since the villa was adapted for the subtropical ecoregion, entwining the historical European aesthetic traditions into its dense growth. Deering would use the villa as his winter residence from 1919 until his passing in 1925. His advisor, collaborator and major visionary in creating the entire estate would be Paul Chaflin, a former art curator, interior designer and painter who would become the project's manager, as he assisted Deering in his art collections, his purchase of antiquities and architectural designs of the project. Deering passed in September, 1925, onboard the steamship SS City of Paris on its way back to the states, and after his death, he would bequest the estate to his two nieces, Ely Deering McCormick Danielson and Marion Chauncey Deering McCormick. As the years rolled by and the hurricanes took their toll, the two ladies would start selling off the surrounding land and outer gardens, and in 1945, they would donate important parts of the estate to the Catholic Archdiocese of St. Augustine, Florida and Miami's Mercy Hospital. Just fifty acres surrounding the villa and outbuildings, along with the formal gardens would be kept, until 1952, when the county would acquire the beautiful estate for a million dollars. Deering heirs would donate the villa's furnishings and antiquities to the County Museum, and the estate would open in 1953 as the Dade County Art Museum.

Bonnet House Museum and Gardens
The Bonnet House is also called the Bartlett Estate and located in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. It would originally be acquired by Hugh Taylor Birch in 1895 for a wedding gift to his daughter, Helen and her husband, artist Frederic Clay Bartlett in 1919. Bartlett would have a plantation style house constructed on the property and then winter there with his wife and child from a previous marriage, named Frederic Jr. Helen would pass on in 1925, and then Bartlett would marry Evelyn Fortune Lilly, the ex-wife of Eli Lilly, continuing to use the house as a winter residence until Bartlett passed in 1953. Evelyn would continue to live there until her passing in 1997, however, she had deeded the estate to the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation in 1983 that now operates the historic house museum. The house has many temporary exhibits displayed throughout it, with frequent lectures, impressions and music series being provided to the community there. The house contains all the original furnishings and ephemera, as if the owners had just stepped out for a moment. Some of the most extraordinary pieces include a rare set of Davenport dessert plates that were made in Staffordshire, England, an outstanding veiled bust by the Italian sculptor, G. B. Lombardi and a big beautiful collection of Spode china that was made in the highly sought-after design of Indian Sporting. What makes this house extra special is that the owner was a gifted artist, with many of his excellent offerings located around the house, that includes murals and faux painting that is spread around the main house. Frederic was more than just a gifted painter, he was also an astute collector, so he and his wife Helen would acquire a priceless collection of paintings that includes Georges Seurat's pointillist masterpiece, Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, Paul Gauguin's Day of the Gods and Pablo Picasso's The Old Guitarist. Besides being an artist, avid collector and connoisseur of the good things in life, Frederic soon discovered that his third wife, Evelyn, was a gifted painter in her own right and with his encouragement, she would begin painting prolifically for five years in 1933, and her works would be featured in gallery exhibits in New York, Indianapolis and Boston, and today are showcased in the Bonnet House's Carl J. Weinhardt gallery.
