You're welcome! It's great to hear from you Hope you've enjoyed the yo-yo weather we have here lolHi guys, thanks for the invite @Mackenzie Click-Mickelson !
My boyfriend and I just moved from Austin TX to the Lees Summit area for a new position at my job.
We've been here a few weeks so far and haven't done much besides huddle in the apartment and try to keep warm.
We hope to get out more in the coming weeks and try to see some of the city and more of the area. Anyone have any hot spots we should see? I was thinking of getting annual passes to the zoo, we had those when we lived in Columbus OH and loved going for a few hours just to walk around every once in a while.
You know I haven't been to the zoo in ages though I've thought about going back soon.
I also haven't been to Worlds of Fun or Oceans of Fun in several years (last time was a work event for my husband's work) but there is that. Now yes it is NOT WDW but if you're looking for roller coasters or a water park there is that (several years ago they merged both parks into one so admission price is for the usage of both). I have yet to go to Schlitterbahn KC (up by the Legends) I figured I would wait until they built more things inside the park.
The Country Club Plaza (or what we simply call the Plaza) in Kansas City Missouri (KCMO) is good during the day when the weather is nice just to walk around and stuff though I just window shop lol.
The Legends, in Kansas City Kansas (KCK), is nice too and is an Outlet shopping district and they are continually adding in more places. I know Kate Spade is coming soon and I believe Michael Kors if you like those places. There is also Park Place in Leawood which is across the street from Town Center Plaza both of which are shopping areas but are nice to walk around in good weather.
If you like museums there are multiple ones in the metro area.
If you like nature there is the Overland Park Arboretum and Botanical Gardens though I admit we have yet to make it there. We planned on going for the Luminary Walk during winter but that fell through.
