Greetings From Disneyworld

While Lulu is busy at the FAME Convention (Florida Association of Media Educators) - I am enjoying 5 days in Disneyworld.

We left Tallahassee in the Honda around 1PM - got here about 6PM. We are staying at the Coronado Springs Hotel - the site of the convention.

Yesterday - we stopped at the Citrus Tower on Clermont. The Citrus Tower is an old concrete tourist attraction. When built in 1955 - one could see half of the world's citrus crops from this tower. In the 1980's - there was a killer frost that virtually wiped out the orange groves. The undustry moved south - and urban sprawl has reached the area.

Lulu and I visited the Citrus Tower on our honeymoon trip to Miami back in 1971. For $4.00 - the tower is still a nice toruist stop.

Here are some pictures from the tower.
