Keep'em flying

Hi Debbie I work for DAL and was wondering if you could help me find the bedt rental cars, I'll be there on Sun the 23Rd of jun rill the 28Th. I know short notice sorry. I work in Myrtle Beach so if I can ever help you with anything here let me know. My friend just got back from kuai and he said it was beautiful. I got him a place there for 300 for the week a two bedroom. It was tough and hard to come by there. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Hi Mark... Sorry for being late... matter of fact, I think you are already here. I just saw your post today. Well.. I hope you found a good rate for a car.. and I hope you are not getting drenched by our rain. To tell you the truth, I have never checked into any discounts for rental cars here. The one thing I know is, if you rent a car in Florida, there is no drop off fee for leaving it at another location in Florida, which is nice for vacationers. I have been told the rates here are pretty good as it is so competitive... plus there are so many visitors that come here and do not rent a car becos of the Disney on-property transportation system. I feel bad that I missed your post... but please let me know if I can help in the future!

Well.. we are certainly neighbors! And.. I am sure you have noticed... the tourists are back...everything is as crowded as pre Sept 11th.. if not MORE! I dont think I have ever seen the crowds like they have been the last few weeks.. good for the Orlando ecomony, tho!
So glad you like our little town of Celebration. We eat breakfast a lot at the little diner... but rarely do the other restaurants. I hope you were able to brave the crowds for our 4th of July fireworks the other day. I think people came from all over the county! It was fun,tho, and I am glad we could walk and not deal with the tons of cars.
We will have to run into each other some day! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Hello Debbie,
I live just a little west of you in Indian Ridge Subdivision. As you know, so close to Disney, you hear the fireworks from the theme parks at night. We love visiting Celebration. Its so peaceful sitting at the lake on the rocking chairs. We frequently eat at Market Street Grill in your beautiful town.
My husband works for Delta Airlines. 23 years now. We dont travel as much as you, but being from Chicago originally, we get back there often. Las Vegas is a yearly trip.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Debbie,
We will be down there next week. Mostly to see Family and Friends but will have a day to do a park or event. We have been to Disney more recently then Universal, let me know what you have heard about Universal's new rides. I see on the web site that Universal still has a Florida resident deal.
We also may try Sea World. Let me know if any deals are to be had at that park.
Looks like hotels should be no problem. On the internet the range of prices is amazing. Though suggestions or hotel info is appreciated.

Debbie,
I love the web site from your profile. Guess I must have been in Scotland when you came to Pensacola for the Blue Angels.
Drop me a line a Pnsnonrev@aol.com Have a question that I would rather ask off the forum.
By the way you have some beautiful dogs. I can see why you like traveling with them.

Hi Coyne! So you are making that exciting drive from Pcola to ORlando?!! (Or maybe you are lucky and will be flying?!). I went to Universal with some visiting friends last month. They were here all week... I was cheaper for me to buy a year pass (if you bring a certain Florida lotto ticket you automatically get 2 years) that to pay for admission each day. I think my FL res year pass was 99.00... just not good on the weekends, which I would stay away from anyway. I now wish I would have forked over 20 or 30 more bucks for the one with the parking...as parking at Universal is 8.00 a day. Big mistake on my part.
As far as the new rides go... well.. I had only been to Islands of Adventure once 2 years ago, so I am not quite so sure as to what is new and old! I do know that on our 2nd time on the Dueling Dragons, I "grayed" out. Everything went dark on me, I thought the ride had stopped, and my friend said my eyes were open and everything. I have never had anything like that happen to me and it was weird... and I love roller coasters! I think we hit up every ride, so if you have any in particular that you want to know about, let me know.
I went to Sea World in January when they were letting all military and their families in for free... couldnt beat that! I really enjoyed it. Two of our neighbors are dolphin and umm.. I forget the other one... trainers. She let us and our friends (with 3 little girls who loved it) back to the training area and the girls got to play with the dolphins which was great. I will check on discounts and get back to you, ok?!
I hope you have a great time. If there is anything you need, please let me know! As you pass Celebration, next to WDW, please wave to me!

Sorry Debbie, I forgot to bring your number so was unable to call when I was down in Orlando.
