Hey CB – Orlando will take some adjusting. The bright side, you are closer to NY and Europe 🙂
I was in St. Petersberg for a mini vacation and stayed at Don Cesar. It was really nice. I found some of the people were on the strange side. You’re not far from those mermaids.
It’s tough to make it here and I don’t fault you at all. If I had to go somewhere, Florida is a decent option.
