We updated our Top Ten Orlando Restaurants for 2018. Aimed primarily at visitors, this list includes mostly restaurants in predominantly visitor areas for easy access. We also included one local restaurant outside of those areas because it's just so good and we haven't found anything like it replicated elsewhere.

Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS) has a great track record. In 2017, the district ranked 1st place out of all Central Florida Schools, and it's 3rd graders ranked 1st of the 17 largest districts in the state of Florida

Yet the schools seem to have some incredibly stupid rules and practices.

We wanted to share some of our experiences from a parental perspective, so you have an idea what to expect

A Day at Epcot as a Local Family - What's it Like?

Our family spent a day at Epcot last weekend. Perhaps one of the things we hear most often from die-hard Disney fans who visit Orlando often is about how great it must be to live here and go to Walt Disney World anytime you want.

Well, think of this episode like the old Mythbusters show

The reality of living here is that most of us just don't have the time to go as often as you may think. We'll explain why.

Now that Walt Disney World resorts allow dogs in rooms, the Internet seems to be in mass hysteria. Some people are elated while others have dire predictions. How will this impact your Disney World vacation?

Why Would Walt Disney World Resorts Allow Dogs in Rooms

Quite simply, it's a business decision. Other hotels and resorts have dog-friendly policies. For example, the Universal Studios resort hotels allow dogs. While Disney World had a kennel on property for decades, but people want to be with their furry friends.

Is IHOP really the best place for breakfast? Should you spend part of your vacation in Orlando shopping at Walmart? Are there secret police waiting to arrest jaywalkers on International Drive?

As a public service, we want to just dispel some of the odd things we've heard shared as Orlando travel advice.
