Orlando is situated in Central Florida
and is well placed for the east and west coasts. Even in the south, easy access is
available using the top quality road and rail systems which gets you down to Miami and
the Florida keys within hours, and to the north Jacksonville and Daytona.
Florida weather can be superb, hot, humid, cool even wet and windy! It all
depends on what time of year you travel. Discover Orlando weather with live TV weather channel, wesh 2.

As
a family, we have found over the years that the east and west coasts offer
action packed days out away from Orlando. With an hour's drive west, along the much
improved I-4, you can be in Tampa, Busch Gardens,
and the sunkissed beaches of the gulf coast.
To the east, you have the fantastic Kennedy Space Centre at
Cape Canaveral plus great Atlantic beaches to explore.

fanatics in the family, then no worries! These two sports are in abundance in Orlando,
from top class championship courses to 3-par courses,
and hundreds of lakes surrounding the area with big mouth bass and many other spices
to fish. The choices are endless.
Discover Orlando shopping...'Shop till you
drop' is the motto in Orlando. My family goes wild in the malls, outlets and flea markets.
Make sure you budget accordingly for your shopping sprees, prices do vary but top
named products can be purchased at bargin prices.
Dining out is great fun, from all American burger
bars to fish, lobster, steaks, buffet restaurants, themed dinner shows and international
cuisines. This part of Florida has it all to suit all budgets.
After dark...Discover Orlando nightlife:
An
experience on its own. From the bars, themed night clubs at 'Disney's
Pleasure Island' and Universals 'City walk' , to
the drive bys in 'Old Town Kissimmee'.
The choice is endless; it's all down to your family requirements as a few places
do have age restrictions for entry.

experience's this is strictly enforced. ID's has to be shown if anyone looks under the age
of 30.
