Orlando

Well folks we are in Orlando after an 18 hour bus journey on the Greyhound, let me just say that it was an eye opener, and probably the last time we ever go on the Greyhound.


Hicks and some dodgy looking folks make up the most of the travellers on the Greyhound cheap not so much but no car no choice.

First week in Orlando some major lessons learnt don’t trust tourist info places when they say they are giving you the best price, look on the internet the best prices are there. Don’t make decision when you’re tired they come back and bite you on your backside.
So cheap motel/hostel accommodation, private room so not sharing with anyone, hostel is cool have met some great people and picked up loads of tips on places to avoid and must see places and also our first USA BBQ at the hostel.

We have been chilling a lot here as it is extremely hot; have done a couple of the attractions, Sea world and Aqautica. Sea world is a must, see sea life with a touch of Hollywood whom I kidding it’s a lot of Hollywood!!!!!

We have moved into a private villa owned by one of Alison’s ex Colleague, well luxury is the word that comes to mind, 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and our own private pool with a lake view!!! Unreal.

I can’t comment on the backpackers lifestyle as we have yet to experience it for real, it’s on the way 10700 miles round trip back to New York camping.

Off to Cocoa beach tomorrow to swim in the sea and also to see Cape Canaveral and possibly Kennedy space station and on the way back Ripley’s believe it or not.

That’s it for now folks catch you all soon
