Re: travel guide for the next IETF...

If the powers that be want to encourage us to come for the entire week, 
choosing places like this doesn't help. I don't need a tourist paradise, but I 
don't want to eat from the same hotel restaurant six days in a row. And needing 
a car is absurd.

P.S. I wonder how the "Stand Your Ground" laws will be interpreted by IETF 
participants... perhaps our discussions will be extra-civil this time. At least 
they're recorded...

Good... but how to get there?

We appear to be stuck in the middle of a monster hotel with a single
boulevard and nothing at all nearby (except that there is a shuttle
to Disney)

Shoping around for places to stay, there are some 3-star places for
<$50/night.   

Looking in Google Earth, you'll still need a car. Even with those hotels that 
are within walking distance, there are big stretches of road without any 
sidewalks.
