Orlando playground of the US

by mafootje - last update: Dec 7, 2008

Christmas at Disney

After visiting Disney MGM studios in 2001 we went again this year. There have been some changes but no big ones. The christmas spectacle of lights is now no longer on the backlot but in front of it. At the place it used to be now is a stunt show.

The lightshow is still beautiful but in my opinion in a to small area.

about Orlando

Since i have been to all the major parks in Orlando now i'm looking around for more...

Offcourse going to shopping malls is a smart thing to do since prices are better then they are in the Netherlands..

Manatee in captivity at Sea World
I went to Orlando for the first time in 1999. At first i planned to go on a completly guided travel through Florida. But because of too little request for this guided travel we've decided to go there on our own. And afterwards we we're happy it al went this way. Orlando is one big playground, with theme parks, souvenir shops and more. We've been out there for eight times now...and still planning to go there more often.

 Hard Rock Cafe, the original, still sits on the ground it was built. . The original is a guitar shaped building, is still in tact and is behind the Hard Rock Hotel. It is not being used for anything at the present time.

 You sure had fun. My son used to work at Church Street Station. Love the kites ... and trains are always a fascination.
