2. Webster Westside Flea Market

$2 for parking. A few covered vendor buildings. 50% of said vendors carry the same sunglasses/watches/hats/tshirts etc etc.
Washrooms are not too clean and get worse as the morning progresses.
Decent variety of fruits and veggies. Prices vary from vendor to vendor. Also, check your change. One young lady had to ask what the change was from a $20 for a $7 purchase. Another gave us $5 back on a $4 purchase paid with a $10.
Some of the “farm fresh” seem to have been picked at the Wynn Dixie farm.....
We go once a year, it’s enough for us.
PS : Please do not buy puppies at the Flea Market. Bad breeding invites huge vet bills

The Seminole tribe defeated the U.S. Army here.
Reviewed By DLL4 - Eustis, Florida
I had no clue that this State Park existed. I came across it when looking online for WWII information. My nephew and I attended for the WWII reenactment. We also took the time to explore the State Park and learn more about the Seminole War. It was very educational and inspired me to learn more about the State of Florida's history!

Hands down the best time with Captain Jerry. He was a very informative, funny, knowledgeable, and a nice man. He made our tour very enjoyable! We saw plenty of wildlife. Gators, turtles, birds. You could really tell everyone loves what they do there. It was a great experience and would totally do another tour with them again!

7. The Florida International Teaching Zoo

Reviewed By Hannah F - Bushnell
OK, so we knew the teaching zoo would be limited in animals, but it seemed like a good excursion for a cold afternoon. Both proved true, but the really exciting part of the equation was the interest and passion of the tour director! He was wonderful and told us much about the animals, their habitats, and other zoological tidbits. Great for adults and kids alike and while, it may not be the San Diego Zoo, it has its own charm.
8. Fort Armstrong Historic Monument
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 4 reviews
Reviewed By FlaHarlock - Tavares, Florida
Named after Major Robert Armstrong, this fort was constructed in 1836 by a detachment of Tennessee volunteers. Used during the Second Seminole Indian War as a supply base. Nothing remains except this roadside monument. Nice piece of Florida history but not worth going out of your way to see. Dade Battlefield Historic State Park, however, is right up the road. Now that's totally worth a visit!
