My memory of Kissimmee was the endless shops selling t-shirts...around $12.00 for 10.
Seems to me there was a place where you could go see alligators for a fee.
This would have been the early 90s.
My most vivid memory of that trip was loosing our 12 year old son at Disney and then losing our 10 years old son at Epcot Center.
Yes, found both....the youngest after searching for hours.

I remember the Tee-Shirts of Kissimmee, too. There's not much else about
the town I recall, other than the same "See the Gators" exhibit. We were
there in the mid 1990's; wife was taking a two or three day state exam
in one of several large classrooms in a building owned by the Tupperware
company. Widely used facility...the CPA exam was being given there at
the same.

The Orlando area is pretty congested.

Orlando is now, it didn't used to be bad at all. There's some cool
things to see and do in Kissimmee, but not for those who do the tourist
thing and don't want an adventure.

Staying two nights in Kissimmee seemed adventure enough. If there is a
compelling reason to revisit, what is it?

Yes, but I know you aren't the adventurous type and don't like the
outdoors, so no, not for you.

You're wrong on both counts. What could I do in Kissimmee that I
couldn't do in a million other places? Wrestle alligators?

Harry, I said that I fully understood that you don't like adventure or
the outdoors. You've made it very clear in the past that you want to fly
somewhere so that you don't have to see the countryside, and you want to
go to a hotel and stay there. There's Bok Tower, a very nice place to
visit, some very nice lakes and swamps for photography, Old Town, the
Colonial Estate, the Warbird Museum. I like going to East Lake fish
camp, but then again, it isn't a five star hotel so you wouldn't.
