maddmaxx ★ Posted March 7, 2020 Share #19 Posted March 7, 2020 I'd stay in Orlando, but I like it there. You stay away from the theme park quarter, search out the good Cuban restaurants, take a day trip out to the cape and take in the National Seashore. We have a forum member who can hook you up on a good bike ride. More restaurants in the Vietnamese part of town. Orlando is a good place, but not any parts of the town that most tourists ever see.

I couldn't get the sound to work but it didn't matter. The underwater camera is pretty mesmerizing. ...the Ichitucknee springs and the outflow stream that flows (into the Santa Fe, IIRC), is one of the great lesser known snorkling treasures of north Florida (AKA south Georgia.) I've done that swim probably three or four times, and seen different underwater life every time. There are (or at least used to be) alligator gar almost as big as a person, and it's someplace people look for manatee. This is one of the connected deep freshwater spring holes where people also dive. I don't dive caves, it's too dangerous. The whole underlying geology is limestone, and every now and then somebody loses a house into a sinkhole. 12 minutes ago, Redfacedwalrus said: ...ikr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
