Even if you just do that though, all you see is a hot, sweaty city, followed by some swampy bits, then Disney World. Hardly a tropical paradise.

We went there when my little sister was 6. Not a peep out of her for the entire thing, until we reached the room with 50 parrots that you could feed little cups of nectar. Sister runs in holding two cups, she was the only one in the room, and that was the day my sister became terrified of birds.

There's a lot of British people that live in Florida too, not sure why they like it so much. Seems like every subdivision has their token British family.

Even in the decent part of the British Isles it basically rains all the time. At least in Florida you can enjoy the sun.

I recently spoke to a British guy who was chuffed that he'd got a really good price on a holiday to Florida one summer. Turns out he got such a great price because it was so hot the entire time that he could only leave the hotel when the sun wasn't up, and his wife still got heat stroke.

It's not that hot in florida. The guy or his wife were super fat or something.

You see the side of the road for about an hour per day and the rest of the time is the Happiest Place On Earth(tm).
If you want to really shatter all perceptions an average Brit might have of the US, LA is really the place. It has a faded glory on par with Blackpool only with more triple-amputee war veterans lying in piles next to all the top-rated attractions.

This is exactly what happened to me when my parents took me to Disneyland. Taking the shuttle to the park for the first time, I knew we were heading to "the most magical place on earth", but I kept wondering why the most magical place on earth was located in a poo poo-hole. When I started to see the signs on the fences around the parking area, I was all "So this is just the parking area right? Once you park, you're whisked away to someplace less scuzzy, right? Like.... do we go through a portal or something? This can't be where Disneyland is?!?"

The "American Road Trip" episode of Top Gear gets into this a bit. Skip to about 5:40 to see Hammond drive his truck into an alligator swamp.

Florida is one of the most ethnically, culturally and ecologically diverse states in the nation and on top of it, it is beautiful as hell.





I'm sorry you had a bad time because your parents took you to a lovely motel in central Florida and spent most of the time suffocating yourself in a buffet line.

Yeah I am trying to figure out where in Florida most of these people went. DIsney World I guess? I went there once but I was a little kid so I loved it. Everywhere else in Florida I've been is gorgeous, and owns.

For real though. If you go to Florida, avoid the tourist traps. Disney world is stupid unless you are a kid or are into irony. In Miami, don't go to south beach unless you are a degenerate wastoid or you are REALLY into house music. In the Keys, avoid Key West unless you loving LOVE 20$ piña coladas and margaritas.

Really? Your Pics are as follows:
A dystopian nightmare with a bridge about to fail
A pic of your family swimming in a nasty swamp
Literally the opening shot of a horror film
And land so Horrible even the sun doesn't want to be there

Don't try to pass off your stank-pit as a livable space.
