Vacation Time In Orlando.



Orlando Florida is a place that has changed so much in its short history. Some historians date the name Orlando as originating in 1836 when a Soldier named Orlando Reeves died in the area against an Indian tribe. He operated a sugar mill and plantation in Volusia County and some settlers found his name carved in a tree and assumed it was a marker for where it was buried so it became known as Orlando’s grave and later just Orlando.

Orlando became a typical western town full of bar brawls and gunfights, but no more today it is a robust and growing community full of things to do. In fact, its main industry today is tourism. Its not surprising that tourism is such a big industry when you consider what the place has to offer.

Orlando Florida is so much more than theme parks and sunshine! Yep it has theme parks so the kids will have a wow of a time. These theme parks include Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World, Islands of Adventure as well as water parks, golf (Yay Golf) and some of the best fishing in the world! Yet only 45 minutes away from the theme parks will take you to countryside very similar to the rolling hills and oak trees of the England.

Its got golf courses, romantic gondola rides, heaps of shopping places for the wife as well as many places to wine and dine her. If you’re looking for a place to stay then Orlando Vacation Home is the place to go. Simply go on line and search the site for that special place for you and your family to spend its next holiday.
