I love when there are a few events lined up that, when put together, can create a very nice cheap weekend. This is one such weekend.
First, the annual antiques extravaganza in Mount Dora is this weekend. Tickets are $10 for Friday, $6 for Saturday or $15 for both days. Parking is free. Tons of antique dealers inside and out will be exhibiting their wares. It's a great, fun time for any antique lover or anyone who just likes to look at stuff. Plan to spend the day if you go.
Second, the Orlando Science Center is offering a special $5 all-day admission on Saturday. That's a $12 savings on adult tickets. The museum has plenty of hands-on exhibits and activities to entertain young budding scientists.
So, here's the idea: Get a couple of girlfriends together and head to Mount Dora. Leave the kids with the dads to hit the science museum. It's a great win-win for everyone. The kids will have lots more fun playing at the museum, you'll be able to enjoy yourself perusing antiques without dealing with whiny bored kids and you'll be saving money!
Mount Dora is about 45 minutes from Orlando. Meet in the middle in Apopka.
