2. Orlando may be well known for its theme parks, but it does
have a number of other things to see and do as well.
There are many nature parks and other outdoors areas, as
well as dozens of museums, art galleries, bars and
restaurants from which to choose from.
If you’ll be flying into town before the summit begins or
staying a day after and will have some spare time, you
may like to visit some of the following attractions, all of
which can be found within a short drive.

3. 1. Harry P. Leu Gardens: The 50--acre botanical gardens are just a few
minutes away from downtown Orlando, and are home to temperate and
tropical plants, flowers and trees. There is also a butterfly garden here, as well
as areas of bamboo and palms. It is an excellent place to take a stroll, with
guided tours available. There is also a historical home at its centre.

4. 2. Cornell Fine Arts Museum: The Cornell Fine Arts Museum is an experience of
art and culture, located on the Winter Park campus of Rollins College, housing
over 6000 works. These include some Italian Renaissance pieces, as well as
works by prominent American artists. The museum collection has expanded
rapidly in the last few years with numerous donations of art and funding. The
Senior Art Show is held each May.

5. 3. The 2012 RBMA Summit is also a great opportunity to visit Florida’s only
certified organic brewery that produces a fine range of ales. The Orlando
Brewing Company offers free tours at 6pm, Monday to Saturday. There is no
better way to find out about the brewing process than visiting this brewery, and it
goes without saying, that the free beer tasting is an added bonus! Anyone that
develops a taste for the beers might like to stay for a few more.
On the weekends there is often live original music as entertainment!

6. 4. If you’re looking for a place to get some outdoor exercise, Lake Eola Park is a
popular place to go running or simply take a walk at any time of day. The distance
around the lake is 0.9 miles, and for those that would prefer to relax a little, you
can rent paddle boats and feed the swans. The amphitheatre in the park also
plays host to concerts and plays, and the illuminated fountain which is best seen
at night is the symbol of the city.

7. 5. Last but not least on the list of places to see is the Morse Museum: The Morse
Museum is home to the most extensive collection of works by Louis Comfort
Tiffany and includes pottery, paintings, jewelry and art glass among other things.
Known famously for the Tiffany collection, Louis Comfort Tiffany is one of the most
prolific artists and designers of the late 19th century. The museum also boasts
other collections of American pottery, paintings and decorative arts. It can be
found on North Park Avenue, Winter Park.
