Orlando/Florida Tips

[Dino]

Apart from the cruise are there any must see's in Florida? We're going out for 2 weeks for a friends wedding and as the wife's 5 months Cheggers there's no point going to some of the theme parks if she can't ride the coasters etc, I might be able to get some automotive porn in!!!!


I don't think I'll be bringing a stroker kit back in my hand luggage like some people though

I have been up to Daytona and that is quite good.
I have not been to Cocoa beach - you wife may appreciate that as I think it is quiet and very pretty.

I HERE THAT I HERE THAT There are Rule's in MIAMI and the first is don't go and if you have to take a GUN or go in a planed group

But Sarasota is good they have a Cool motor museum if you drive past the air port on the right of you follow the road to the third set of lights the museum is on the right. also PJ's Auto world in Clear water is SOOOOOOOO cool They have lot's of muscle for sale and you can rent it to and the beach in Clear water is to die for

Daytona beach is good as they have the raceway and The Living Legends motor museum Just go and drive around call in and chat above all have a great day You could go to Treasure Island as well cheep too

Cocoa beach is nice and only about an hour from Kissimmee, Ron Jons is massive . Garlits Museum is a definite, if your into Drag Racing, its kid in a sweet shop time ,or if its classics ,theres the other hall on the same site with Don Garlits collection. The man himself is sometimes knocking about ,he was the time i were there. The rodeo in Kissimmee on a Friday night is worth a visit, bull riding etc. Its down a road by Kissimmee airport. Orlando Speed world is also nearby, look on there site to see if theres any strip action while your there. Wish i was going .

Been all round Miami and Miami beach a few times and had no scares,stayed there twice too
Fort Lauderdale is a sight to see (very wealthy area)last time I was there, there was an international boat show on,held on the river that flows inland,even if boats are not your bag,the sights there were amazing.
Also for a cool and chilled out place,Naples is a must(while you are over the Clearwater area).From there whizz across the Everglades and do Miami/Homestead before heading down the keys,(make sure you go all the way though)Key West was one of my best nights out EVER!!!!!
