Mobile Name the year and the advice.

Currently in Orlando and was thinking about how much has changed in the 18 years I've been coming here and how over that time he advice u read in guide books or on here has changed as systems etc have changed.

So let's play a game. Give a year and a piece of advice for Orlando that would be relevant in that year.

I'll give two as an example.

2001 - get the Iride trolley to Belz Mall At the top of I drive. There is some real bargains to be had.

2005 - I would book with travel city direct. Their planes can be delayed but they are so much cheaper than anyone else.

1990 - you can’t miss a trip to River Country, it’s a water park in a real Floridian lake. Plus there are some awesome slides that drop you 6 feet into the water

1995 don't forget to have your hand stamped if you want to come back into the park when leaving to go back to the villa for a swim etc
1995 ponderosa and Golden coral great food value to be fair for us for years they were as we had 3 growing lads that could eat there weight in food

2001 - always queue to the left because everyone goes right. I don’t think this applies anymore with how busy everywhere is now 😂
