    so how hard a drive is it from miami?

    Well I'm afraid we are locked in to travelling straight from Miami to Orlando on the afternoon / evening we land , so we shall just have to make the most of it.

    so how hard a drive is it from miami?

    Well I'm reading costs of upwards of $10 a day so $150 dollars or thereabouts , as we shan't be travelling much one we get to our hotel on property at Disney the only tolls we will really encounter are those Miami to Orlando and the return journey , so $150 on those circs is far more than the...

    so how hard a drive is it from miami?

    Well we are flying in to Miami for the first time in a couple of weeks , the cost of the flights ( 4 ) was well over £1500 cheaper so it was something I think is worth the 'risk'.
