They did cover St. Augustine quite a bit.

Cool video. However, I agree with ThatFloridaDude. Outside of a blurb on Tallahassee, St. Augustine, and Splendid China, there's not much that wasn't outside South Florida.

Nice aerials. Agree with others they have focused a bit too heavily on the obvious -- beaches, Everglades, South Beach (although I very much appreciated the quality of the material). Surprised to see so little of Orlando, and no mention at all of Tampa-St Pete-Sarasota. Some other notable omissions which are less commonly associated with Florida but no doubt a true reflection of Florida's identity is the Ocala region (horse country), the massive interior state and national park system (Ocala Forest south to Weviva Springs area), Daytona International Speedway, Tarpoon Springs, Bok Tower Gardens (Olmstead....hello?), Fernandina.

There must be somebody we can write to about this.

I grew up 20 minutes from Bok Tower Gardens, been there more times than I can count, and never realized that it was designed by Olmstead, Jr. He also designed Jacksonville's Memorial Park. Are there any other park spaces in Florida that the Olmstead family had a hand in?
