Help please - where am I thinking of?
Happy New Year everyone!
My hubby and I are struggling to recall the name of a lovely town we visited a few years ago and I was hoping a Dibber might be able to help. We had a lovely afternoon visiting a town with a very cute street full of antique shops. It was was quite distinctive there was a roundabout with shops and parking all the way round including a bank. It's not Winter Park as we have been there a few times. Also not Mount Dora as that was more quirky. I seem to recall it may have been in the Wekiwa Springs area possibly? (But I may just be making that bit up due to hazy memory) For the life of us, we just cannot recall the name of the place - we've even tried searching places on google maps and google images At the time, we found out about the town from a mention on The Dibb so hoping someone will know the place and help us clear up the mystery! |

Just searched the DIBB for antique shops and Micanopy is mentioned?

I know, I have come across that too - Micanopy is a really unusual name so that would be a memorable one.
I thought it could be Winter Springs or Winter Garden but cannot find the street I'm thinking of on a google image search? I seem to recall it was close (short drive away) to an outdoor parade of more modern stores in a horseshoe shape as we visited there first and then drove over to the cute little main street area. |

DeLand but I cant remember a roundabout.
The only places I know that have shops on a Circle (roundabout) are Sebring and St Armands Circle. Sarasota.

Thanks for trying everyone - the mystery continues!
Definitely not Celebration, we visit there every trip and know it well. Winter Gardens would be in the right approximate location I think - do you remember the name of the shops please? They were a small outdoor mall of brand name stores. Does Winter Garden have antique stores do you know? Don't think it was DeLand, but that looks like a place we would visit on our next trip I've checked google maps, Sebring and St Armands are both in wrong locations. The place we visited was north of Orlando I recall. I appreciate everyone trying to help us figure this out |

It sounds like Winter Garden to me. The modern shops are "Winter Garden Village" and the original much older section is Downtown. I don't remember that many antique shops and your memory of the roundabout sounds abit muddled but I think that is the closest fit. It is definitely worth a visit anyway.

But I don’t think winter park has shops around a roundabout in the way you’ve described. |
