There are so many Things to do in Florida December 29, 30, 31, 2012 - January 1, 2013 it would be impossible to list them all. Well maybe not impossible but it ain't gonna happen this year. Much of what WILL be happening in Florida the very first day of 2013 will be happening in a bowl - as in the 'Gator Bowl' or the 'Capital One Bowl' or maybe the 'Discover Orange Bowl' down Miami way. And if you happen to live in the Crystal River area, there's a bowl of another kind you might be interested in. Just polish up the old "PIN PUNISHER" and head for the New Years Eve Party at Manatee Lanes December 31st. Bowling is always a great way to ring in the new year! Now if you'd rather swing in the new year, you'll find what you're looking for listed right at the top of these things to do in Florida December 29, 30, 31, 2012 - January 1, 2013. Dance till you drop or the balloon does to the 20 piece Swingin' the New Year Orchestra. It's a "celebration for all ages" going on at the Coliseum Ballroom in St. Pete - Dec 31, 2012. Finally, for those with family or friends still refusing to leave until they get their figgy pudding, down toward the end of the list you'll find some Christmas leftovers for those with CWS. If you yourself suffer from Christmas Withdrawal Syndrome, these events will help fill that figgy void. These of course are just a few of the tons of things to do in Florida December 29, 30, 31, 2012 - January 1, 2013 - all the rest are in Sopchoppy. Y'all have a happy one!
