I spent 4 years at school there. Yes, the water is shit, because it's all just built on a swamp.

The roads are way too flat and straight though. I legit would have dreams about twisty mountain roads with elevation changes when I was down there. It was rough :)

It's better in other parts of Florida, but I seriously don't know what happened in Orlando. Nothing a simple carbon filter doesn't fix though fortunately.

We've got some serious cars here in Florida, though. Not just the new ones, but classics that last forever in salt-free bliss.

If you live somewhere with a lot of lakes it's slightly better, but yeah, the only thing that makes up for it is they are almost always in perfect condition.

yeah, I was blown away with the variety of nice cars. The regular cars were quite homogeneous though.

True story, waiting at a light in Miami there was a white G63 AMG to the right AND left of the van I was in.

Miami Beach especially is like one big car show. No matter where you live in Florida, the parking is plentiful, the roads are flawless and there's always someone living out their days on a massive pile of money.

Just over a year ago I spent a few days using Orlando as my home base on this beast.

Kinja'd!!!

I put about 500 miles on it in two days, with loops to the north and south and a lot of time on A1A, cruising along the coast. Best of all, it was a rental, making it the fastest motorcycle in the world.

Oh, as far as the water is concerned, I avoided that by staying at the Red Roof directly across the street from the Orlando Ale House. Why drink water when you can drink beer instead?

My school was right on a lake that connected to 4 other lakes, which was very nice. I sailed a lot. But still, I need dem twists.

Winter Haven, where I live, has 22 lakes all connected by canals, and several dozen more unconnected. The shorelines are also, occasionally, not just perfectly round. Being on the Ridge helps, but I just got back from a week in New Hampshire in a rented 2015 Charger, and I'm definitely seeing what you are saying.

I was at Rollins, in Winter Park. Not far from Winter Haven I think.

Yeah, about an hour. I hope you enjoyed your time at that country club of a (great) school.

Enjoyed it so much I didn't even have time to graduate!

Haha, no it was great though, and I got my degree a year later after finishing up a few classes up north in NYC.
