Hi, does anyone know how I would get to the Florida Mall from the Seaworld area. We dont drive. I know there is a lynx bus that goes there, but dont know where we get it. How much would it be in a cab? It says on a store locater map I brought up it was around a 5 mile journey. Or as an alternative does anyone know of a games shop around the international drive area. My son is desperate to purchase the new Pokemon games for his DS and he can get both in the US for the price of one in the UK. He has been saving his pocket money.

Thanks in advance

You could probably get into the City of Orlando web site and find the bus schedule. Or maybe check with your hotel. We stayed at the Hilton near Seaworld and there were plenty of bus stops. Most of the Outlet Malls have a KB Toy shop. I don't know if the game is there though.

probably wouldn't be too much in a cab, but would probably wipe out any savings on getting them cheaper here than in the UK.

bus wouldn't be too bad, you're basically going up Inernational Drive and turning on Sand Lake rd and the malls only about 5 miles down from there. Should be able to find numerous Lynx bus stops all along International Drive, I think they run every 15 minutes or so around there.

You should be able to buy these at the large Virgin Megastore at Downtown Disney. May well be easier for you to get there.

There is a GameStop going in next door to the Premium Outlet Mall (by the new Panera Bread Co.), which is a lot closer than the Florida Mall. The sign is up, but it's not open yet--I would expect it to be in a week or two.

BTW, FL Mall is more than 5 miles from WDW, and that doesn't take into account traffic--as was metioned, cab fare would wipe out any potential savings.

I agree-- Florida mall may not be far on the map but it can take forever to get there sometimes.
