Moss Park is a neat Orange County park near Orlando. The best parts are the Sandhill Cranes that live in the area. You are awoken by their very loud bird calls that sound somewhat like an elephant’s bellow. They are along the roads, on hills of sand (which is cool given their name of sandhill cranes), or are on the nearby Bird Island (again, cool).
We
saw deer, lots of squirrels, and several armadillos that were rooting in the
ground.
There
are also several places to fish in the park. So far John hasn't fished in
Florida. Maybe soon he’ll get a fishing license.
By
the way, I want to whine about the Orlando area. Everywhere you go you drive on
toll roads. We spent at least $40 in tolls in a few days. Since we were towing
a car at times, we had to pay double. Most places had people taking the money,
but some required you to throw in 3 quarters with major fines if you didn't pay. What if you don’t have any quarters? Orlando doesn't “nickel and dime”
you, it takes quarters and dollars.
