Stroll along the streets of the Mission San Luis Living History Village and National Landmark in Tallahassee. Actors dressed in period costumes bring the past of the Apalachee Indians and the Spanish settlers to life, as their lives and experiences are reenacted through demonstrations of their religioin, military and business.
Go on a wild adventure at the Tallahassee Museum. Visit a zoo devoted exclusively to animals in their natural habitat. Forget about walking from exhibit to exhibit, instead you walk across the outdoor boardwalk attraction situated inside a towering cypress forest to see wild panthers, rare red foxes and other wildlife up-close and in the wild.
Forget football and baseball and head over to see The Tallahassee RollerGirls play in the full-contact and fast-paced sport of Roller Derby! These teams of 20 to 50-year-old girls are no sissies when it comes to the ruff and tumble sport played on a flat track instead of the old fashioned angled track.
