    It was our first time at the race track. We took the tour. It was amazing. We got to see so much. The views from the top rows of seats is awesome. The museum is very good also. We really enjoyed the visit.

    we had a good day at the beach , lots of waves , my wife just loves to watch and listen to the waves , the sand was soft and warm , there was not that many people , likely because of the mid week time frame. there was construction at a number of stores in the mall attached to Wyndham Ocean Walk and quite a few of those stores were closed , was it just a slow week or was it hurricane repair that is normal , i dont know , the water was reasonably warm and there were some swimmers , we were content to walk along the promenade

    The Museum and art center were amazing and were totally worth it. We were there over 5 hours! Both the arts and sciences buildings were well layer out with interesting facts on the placards. Both had exhibits that you definitely did not miss walking around. Totally more than we expected!

    The stadium was closed. My purpose was to sight see and see the historical landmark.

    It’s in the Daytona Beach area surrounded by beautiful trees and an overpass leading to Intercostal Hwy.

    I enjoyed the experience.

    Great place to grab some food, see the sites and watch the show cars go by. You can also pick up nick-nacks and gifts like tee shirts, etc.

    Father Phil is propelling the church into the future, with his modern uplifting mass that is full with the joy and love of our Lord Jesus Christ to ALL! I get sadly disappointed by the stale and lifeless mass available in my area. When you attend mass at our Lady of Lourdes you feel the Catholic religion has a future with engaged parishioners and growth. I pray that this vibrant version of the mass and this spirit of love spreads to other congregations. If you like boring traditional mass with outdated music that goes through the motions and hangs onto the past with a death grip of righteousness you will not like Our Lady of Lourdes. If you want to feel happiness, forgiveness, acceptance for all God’s creation, and inspiration for the future of Catholicism, you will LOVE Our Lady of Lourdes. I honestly feel we should petition our Bishops and Pope to use Our Lady of Lourdes as a model to revive the spirit of worship and fellowship throughout the world. Thank you father Phil for all that you do!

    This place is huge. We walked around for a couple hours and only covered half of it. Good for a rainy day. The fresh vegetables and fruit were excellent. The pickle place was fantastic. Many other interesting places. Many duplicates of the vendors. A good way to dodge the rain.

    We went when they had all the food you could eat plus the indoor attractions and two outside ones. We must have spent five hours there with kids and grandkids. That was a good deal they had going on in February.

    Lots of action for mid day Monday.

    Staff was courteous and fun. Had a lot of tables and games going.

    Neighboring table had issue but staff (floor manager) handled it well.

    Would recommend for gaming experience. Did not try the restaurant.

    It was interesting walking down the pier and watching the fishermen and the surfers below. There is a restaurant with a roof top bar with great views up and down the beach. The group of stores along the “boardwalk” (its all concrete, except the pier) were interesting to walk through. People seemed to enjoy the food at the restaurant.
