orlando or miami?
« on: December 23, 2012, 07:48:29 PM »
I know their not really close to each other
i dont know the pros and cons
If you had to pick a place to go for a week which would you pick, orlando or miami?
(I have a 2.5 yr old son so keep that in mind.)

Im just so lost and i dont know where to start.

Check out the south Florida and Orlando master threads here on ddf.

The two cities are very different, Orlando being much more for entertainment, being that it has Disney, universal and sea-world. While Miami is much more relaxing place, amazing beaches, great water sports and tons of kosher places to eat out.

Sounds great, although 5 days in orlando sounds like a bit much. I would do 3-4.

I'd keep as is. Rent a house in Orlando near a Chabad.
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Sound like you're going to both, which seems like a good idea. I would make one recommendation while you're in Orlando, which is to make the hour or so trip out to the Kennedy Space Center.

Not close to miami, it is to the east of orlando, at the coast.
