Branson, Missouri is the leftover meatloaf
of the tourism industry. It doesn’t matter
what year it is, it stays fresh like 1991...
Summertime Branson is buzzing with tourists.
Branson continues to be a major tourist hub in 2025,
hosting millions of visitors annually—typically over 9
million—with a high influx of travelers drawn to new
attractions like the Truth Traveler VR experience and the
reimagined Fire in the Hole coaster. The 2025 season
features a strong focus on immersive entertainment,
new dinner shows, and year-round festivals.
There are so many activities centered around kids
and families. One of those is The Butterfly Palace. I
am not into butterflies, so have not had any desire to go
there. I like to see the pretty butterflies, but from far. The
butterfly room is 80 degrees year-round! If in Branson,
and butterflies are your thing, then you know where to go.
The last time we were in St. Louis was last fall.
As always we had a great time. We stayed in a very cool
hotel and they served the most amazing drinks.
Today Arvid and I head back home to Sniff.
Our most favorite place. I know Sniff is waiting
patiently for us, and we look forward to seeing him and
settling down back to our routines. To all a good day.
We are soon homeward bound. It is a good day.
Every traveller returns home. Hotels
are for leaving, home is for returning...
