This weekend, we're attending IZEAFest at Sea World, in Orlando. IZEAFest is a conference for bloggers. Here's a better definition of what it is from their site.
An interactive event designed to educate, inform and connect social media enthusiasts. Meet the world's foremost social media experts in a collaborative, fun and open setting. Learn how to grow your traffic, build your brand and make more money online.
So, what does all this mean for you? Why do you care about a blogging conference?
Well, Sea World did an amazing job hosting the event and reminded me that Orlando has parks outside of Disney! I know, heresy, you say. Well, I know, you come to Disney to go to Disney, but there are many other fantastic venues in the Orlando area and you can save a bunch of money by adding a visit to one of these other parks in with your Disney vacation.
Sea World is an amazing theme park that offers completely different shows and rides from Disney -- Shamu, two white-knuckle roller coasters, ray and dolphin experiences, and so on. All for MUCH, MUCH less than it costs to visit a Disney World park.
Additionally, Sea World does an excellent job with respect to customer service. With Disney in town, it's almost impossible to compete on a customer service level, but Sea World does a better job competing than any other park in Orlando. You won't be disappointed with a sub-par experience.
Just as a quick disclaimer, I received no compensation for this post -- I have just had lots of great experiences at Sea World (and so have my kids, by the way) and wanted to share that with you.
