Wow and I thought the numbers were rather low. Just think if they catch and kill 83 a year how many Don't they catch? Being an Orlando native I know they are everywhere, just wish stupid people would quit feeding them and bothering them. We have a certified stupid person in our neighborhood who feeds the gator hot dogs when they cook on the grill outside right next to the pond it lives in. It is just a matter of time before it attacks to get food from someone. And it will be their fault. Someone will be hurt or dead and the gator will die too, because they Don't move them to a new home t

I live in one of those districts and it seems it is going quite well. It is called Lake Nona and is South of OIA. It was originally designed as a Medical City with Nemours being the base, now we have UCF Medical School and Florida Hospital as well as the Vets Center here. There are lots of stores and places to shop and more being built all the time. The only thing it is missing is religious houses of worship. The land is too expensive for most churches to build here.

Both parks are great and have lines waiting to get in for swimming since the water is a cool 72 degrees year round. The pancakes are great even if you have to cook them yourself. They are stone ground so not what you would get at a Dennys. There's also a cook your own (or least there used to be) at Hillsborough River State Park in Thonotosassa. They only have 2 grills but we cooked our own there as well. Another great park in the same area near Apopka is an Orange county park called Kelly Park. It has Rock Springs where you can tube a 20 minute run and has a large swimming area. RV/

Another shout out to AAA. They have a dead battery service that a coworker told my husband about. Lucky he did because just a couple of weeks later I had a dead battery at home and went online to get AAA to bring me a new battery. Awesome within an hour (they said it was going to be 90 min) I had a new battery installed in my car while I sat at home enjoying my coffee. Price wasn't bad either, comparable to getting a new one at a dealership. We made sure our dd has the app on her phone so if she ever has any problems she can take care of it herself.

My dd was recently in Winnie Palmer (ORMC) hospital and we overheard 3 nurses talking in the elevator about the best free place to take the kids to the pool. You guessed it The Fort! They also discussed how much harder it was to get into the other resorts and Fort Wilderness was always open.

Chip has a black nose like a chocolate chip and Dale's is red. That's how someone once told me to remember which was which.

Thanks for telling us how the program works both in FL and CA. My dd is going to be a JR in college next year and is looking into the program.

Where do your girls live will they are in CA? Does DL provide housing like WDW does or are they on their own to find housing? How does all that work?

DO NOT store your RV anywhere on Oak Ridge Rd or near John Young Pkwy. Super high crime area. Lots of section 8 housing units and people wandering around all times of night and day. We used Park Bark and Fly just north of MCO on Semoran Blvd when we had our RV. They watch the lots like hawks. They follow cars in when parking in their minibuses so they know who is going to storage area and they will wait to see you open the RV door before leaving. They are open 24 hours and charge by length of RV. They have minibus service to MCO so if you need to fly out they take you right to the airport depa

I read in the Orlando Sentinel that NOJ will be held at ESPN next year with buses providing transportation to MK for those who want to do rides/attractions. Just wondering since my dd's church group usually goes is this because it does not draw enough of a crowd on its own to shut down the park? I will guess that they will keep MK open to everyone instead of making it a private party and hope most people will stay at ESPN to hear the concerts. My dd will be out because she goes to ride the rides when the crowds are lower not necessarily for the concerts (too loud for her).

I've lived here my whole life and love to leave Central FL. We do national parks, cruises, snow ski and everything except visit family (in-laws live nearby and my dad and 1 brother live nearby). Disney is what others do for vacation. I read travel journals and am amazed at all the work put into seeing everything. We recently gave up our annual passes and have no plans on going for a few years. Not interested in Star Wars or Avatar stuff so except for the Mine Train there's been nothing I've missed yet. If I really need to go I'll wait for a party (Night of Joy, Halloween or Christmas-but early

I agree. I live here in Central FL and roses can bloom anytime so where are they...and we all know Disney can force roses to bloom anytime they want. I guess it should be called the Former Rose Garden pathway

I think children same as parents means that they pay the same thing-no kids meal prices there! Weird it wouldn't post and then did it 3 times....
