Orlando was once a sleepy small Florida town surrounded by cow pastures and citrus groves. Then the Mouse moved in. In a flash of pixie dust those 47 square acres of cow pastures turned into fairyland castles and citrus groves became thrill rides.
While Walt Disney World isn’t the only attraction in town anymore - Universal Studios, Discovery Cove, and Sea World have joined the party - it's still the major player in town. Engage in a completely different kind of thrill sport found at the several upscale outlet malls around International Drive. Conventioneers flock to the Orange County Convention Center for meeting by day then disperse for fun in the evening, many heading to Downtown Orlando to find everything from dance clubs and comedy clubs, to martini bars to sports bars. And then there’s golf and plenty of it! Over 168 golf courses dot the landscape. No wonder Tiger Woods called the Orlando area home for several years before purchasing a compound north of Palm Beach. He may still keep his property here, so look for him if you're on the links.
