    I didn't realise there was more at Orlando than an airport & a road heading to the Gulf Coast. :cool:

    This is really a forum for genuine travel advice and assistance, not political rants. If I want to go to Seaworld I'll make my own mind up thanks. Then I'll ask on here for information about potential money saving recommendations.

    Could not agree more but the OP seems to have it in for the parks as this is just one of many forums the info is posted by them.I m pleased to say that many of the OP posts are sooner or later removed by the mods when posted :0)

    Would this be the royal "we" ?

    People who talk like this remind me of nursery school teachers "Now children WE are going to all play nicely today aren't WE"

    Even if they had a valid point it'd be wasted on me as I'd have stopped reading at the first "We".

  • I'd highly recommend a Florida road trip we did this year.
    Scored a cheap Monarch flight into Orlando Sanford and headed up to The Forgotten Coast around the Florida Panhandle before hitting the beaches along the Redneck Riviera.
    Didn't hear another British accent in 10 days and enjoyed fantastic food,drink and world-class beaches.

    We have done a few Florida road trips and they are always great. If you are flying in to Orlando, St Augustine is an easy trip from the airport and is a lovely place to start with. You can then head west or go South down the coast, stopping at Daytona, Cocoa Beach, Fort Lauderdale etc. We also did a loop from Orland down the coast, across Alligator Alley and then to Naples, Fort Myers, St Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa and then back to Orlando. However, this year we went further north after flying in to Orlando and that was great (but involved more driving). We went to St Augustine, then Savannah followed by Charleston. From there we went to Myrtle Beach and that was the only downside of the trip, but then on our way back we went to Hilton Head Island before going back to St Augustine the night before our flight home. Basically with a guidebook and some forward planning whatever you do will be great. Have fun.

    I recently spent 8 days in Southall and also had great food and not a hint of a British accent anywhere.
    Okay, no beaches, but 2 out of 3 isn't bad.
