+GATOULIS Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 guess 2, april 15 Inbound - May 22 Tip: Carry around the discount coupons you see in leaflets for restaurants in your purse. You never know when you might decide to eat in one of them and they do save money. Also discount coupons are available for some of the smaller attractions such as places like Gaterland, Airboat Rides, Skull Kingdom, Titanic Exhibition, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, Guinness Book of Records and crazy golf. These coupons can save you money and it is really frustrating when you decide to go to one and your coupon is sitting on the coffee table back at the villa. taken from here: http://www.lastminut...to-orlando.html Oh... emm... since I am collecting coupons...as a kind of private money.... can I have the unused ones?

+GATOULIS Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 guess 3 for April 15 outbound - August 12 tip: As for shopping there are 4 main malls. Beltz Factory Outlets and Premium Outlets for bargains, Millennia Mall for Designer Clothes and Florida Mall for High street fashion. Don't stuff your suitcases on the way out, and maybe even consider taking an empty one, as most people end up buying lots of extra stuff. Women's clothes sizes are two sizes down eg. UK size 14 is US size 12. Also don’t forget to ask for visitors discount at Macy’s and Bloomingdale Department stores at Millennia. (They give 11%, which is worth having). taken from http://www.lastminut...to-orlando.html Quote Link to comment

We visited it this year. It is a 2 story house made of gingerbread and decorations - completely edible.

+keewee Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) December is a little late... Where is everyone from the forums these days? Seems to be very few new topics or people posting in existing topics lately! Have they all fled? Or are they all out caching? Usually a coinest would attract mega-attention! Given there are so few people around and posting then I am relaxing the posting rule :- you can now post once per hour! Edited April 15, 2012 by keewee Quote Link to comment

+ocklawahaboy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 If your dates are into the fall/winter (here) there are some really great community festivals that can give you some real local flavor. The usually start in October and go into December. They generally focus on seafood and fine arts but there are a variety of them. Once your dates get guessed, (unless I've missed them) I can be of more help. Quote Link to comment

+ocklawahaboy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I think they are obnoxious because I like paddling but there are a number of air boat tours around the Orlando area, that take you on the st johns river. One of the only ways you'll see that part of real fl. Quote Link to comment

+ocklawahaboy Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Have you thought about a side trip to st. Augustine fl. It's about 2 hrs from Orlando and is the oldest continually inhabited city in the USA. The old fort there is really worth seeing and only cost about five bucks per person. Quote Link to comment
