So....I am currently a student at UCF (University of Central Florida) and today I was eating with one of my fraternity brothers, and he said "I just dont get the whole hype you have over disney, its just a theme park with some hotels"...(He hasn't been since he was 6)...After hearing that I said...I gotta show you something...Pulling out of the Fazolis Italian restaurant I took a left towards I-4, instead of the usual right heading to campus...He said, "you're not really going all the way down there are you?"....hahaha, I was! Seeing as I still had my old room key from a month ago, as well as my parking permit...I drove down to disney's boardwalk, showed him how intricately the theming was...walked around the whole boardwalk area over to The Yacht and Beach, and then over to Swan and Dolphin...He suddenly became extremely impressed, but I didnt stop there....I drove over to the Wilderness Lodge, then to Ft. Wilderness....then finally into the polynesian, where we took a ride on the monorail afterwards (I quoted about 75 percent of the monorail schpeel verbatim).....Needless to say, after our five hour "Resort Expedition".....Another true fan of Disney was born...!!! Just doin my part to spread the good word....Oh, and real quick...does anyone know why there was a HUGE inflatable Lady and the Tramp at the T and T center???? seemed a lil outta place....hope you all enjoyed the story, sorry for no pics...!

That is absolutely awesome. Great story. When I move down there in a few months can we be friends!?

PS. He may be interested in knowing that Disney and several of the UCF programs complement each other perfectly, such as hospitality management. The growth of central Florida and the college itself owe a lot to the company.

Hello. Great story. Was the area full with people? Spread the word more people that like Disney the better.:)
Nope there were no people in the area, the inflatable lady and the tramp were huge and had massive straps holding them down, just chillin all alone in the grassy area....Is there a re-release of the DVD possibly, it just seemed very chinsy looking, and out of place.

Yea, he knows a lil about that, he had a couple of DVC (Disney Vacation Club) reps come into his hospitality class, and talk about the job opportunities....but yea....we could be friends...hahha, I show u the popular nightlife around here, and it extends MUCH farther than Pleasure Island.

Believe me bro,....that won't be a problem, downtown Orlando (Church St.) is strewn with beautiful girls, and "age" has no effect on the future outcome..Im 21, and well....you can figure the rest out...Even the local places near campus are tight, I bartend at a popular bar here, so free drinks and "Introductions" are on me for sure.....hopefully I'll "See you Real Soon"

That is amazing, and sounds a lot like some people I know, if only I lived in the area so that I could do the same :(
