Does anyone know anything about Bradenton, FL?
 

My parents recently retired in Bradenton and I'm taking my kids (ages 8 & 12) for a visit in two weeks. None of us really enjoy going to the beach and I know that's big attraction down there. Does anyone have any suggestions about things to do in Bradenton?

The following website might help you: <BR> <BR>http://www1.localeyes.com/1US7TPAFLAL/ <BR> <BR> <BR>Good Luck!

Check out www.flausa.com. <BR> <BR>As far as things to do with the kids, there is the South Florida Museum, BIshop Planetarium, and the Parker Manatee Aquarium. <BR> <BR>You could drive to Busch Gardens in Tampa, maybe catch a Tampa Bay Devil Rays baseball game in St. Pete, or even drive to Disney. <BR> <BR>Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help. One more question for Mary--The Parker aquarium sounds like something the kids would like. Do you have any more info or do you know where I could find out more?
