Orlando
The book I read to research this post is The AA Pocket Guide to Orlando which is an excellent book which I bought from a bookshop in Hereford. Orlando is probably best known for the nearby Walt Disney World Resort. It consists of 5 theme parks each of which you could easily spend a day in. It covers a huge site. Most people arrive via Orlando International Airport which serves more than 70 cities in the USA alone. If you want an alternative you could try Tampa Airport. Busch Gardens is near Tampa and as well as lots of rides has lots of animals. Seaworld is famous for its aquatic shows. If you want somewhere quiet you could try Lake Toho or Lake Wales both of which offer great fishing as well as plentiful birdlife. If you see an alligator never approach it as they can outrun a human. Another popular attraction in Cape Canavrael which boasts an unused Saturn 5 rocket among its many exhibits. Yet another popular attraction is Discovery Cove where they let you swim with dolphins. On television they did a survey of things people wanted to do before they die. Swimming with dolphins got the most votes. If you fancy try Orlando, Tampa & Kissimee. They are all big cities and Kissimee is particularly good for budget accommodation.
