    I have heard that public transportation is poor in florida but are there any public buses that run into the ciry or orlando? How about coaches/buses that run to other parts of florida - is it possible to visit othe parts of florida via public transport? Anybody had to use public transport before who could shed any light on this?

    For example when i went to florida with my family we visited the town of Celerbration which i absolutely loved, it was xmas and they were pumping fake snow onto the main street and at the same time children were playing in the fountains in was that warm. Anyway must stop myself from strayin off topic! See i would really love to visit there again and was wondering if it would be possible to reach places like that by public transport? ???

    Feeona i dont know about celerbration as ive not been to that part of florida. Im sure Sara, Lindsey or someone else who knows the area well will help! I would have thought u could get there by greyhound bus from orlando - as greyhoundbuses in my experience go practically everywhere! i think the sites www.greyhoundbus.com

    I travelled across america by public transport - its totally doable. I mostly went on amtrak where the trains run they are great - loads of leg room, leg rests and around the same price as greyhound! Otherwise greyhound and coach usa usually serve most places.

    Im sure ur reach celerbration - it sounds so cute! if theres no bus theres bound to be some cute guy with a car!

    Feeona, I absolutely love Celebration too!! - If I am correct that the apartment complexes at Little Lake Bryan - you will be living only about 5-10 minute drive from celebration so a taxi would definately be your easiest and probably not even very expensive for such a short distance. If I get accepted I will be bringing a car so we can go together to celebration! -Derek-

    Thanks marie, greyhound do seem to go everywhere! It's just so difficult searching for things like that on the net as you get results for every site but the one you are looking for!

    Dee - hi i obviously went there when i was younger so wasnt aware how close it was! Still the closer the better  ;D . You havent been accepted yet? When will you find out?

    hey!
    there are buses that drive through orlando...go to golynx.com and you can see that they go from disney to downtown & international drive and stuff...theyre not always on time though and the rides take pretty long as the bus stops almost every 50 metres lol...americans are so lazy ;)!!!
    when you wanna go to cape caneveral or miami or something there are also buses...you can book seats at the visitors information...i think a trip to cape e.g. costs about 37 $ or something...
    hope i could help ya!
