ps Im excited to see someone else from the west coast. Im from Oregon...but am taking this experience to become a southern belle

This made me chuckle
Most of the Southern states don't count Flordia as being a part of the South, well at least not the southern half of state (the panhandle can be very southern). I was looking forward to going to Orlando, to get away from Southern culture for 5 months.

Anywho I check in Aug 10, too.
I just have to make it through my last two summer class...speaking of which I should stop surfing the DIS and get back to my paper.
I can't wait to meet everyone though.

Savannah...
I have a friend who lives in Tampa and he told me the same thin gthat Orlando isn't part of the south but Disney World isn't in Orlando

And my sister lives in Kissimmee and when you get away from the big city that is Orlando things like food and people get a bit more Southern.

I also talked it over with a friend from Louisiana, who is truley southern and he gave me his blessing in my endevour for southernness- and I hope to visit some of the real South.

btw Where are you from?

 

[pointybubble]

I'm from South Florida, and it's definitely true that the more north you go, the more "southern" you get Orlando is very much a big metropolitan city, but if you head out towards the coastlines in either direction or further north you will find it to be at least somewhat "south".

Hey Pointybubble! I'm from Sunrise, FL. When do you check-in?

I was an army brat but when I was 10 my parents decided to retire in the great state of Alabama (Ozark)
Most of my friend tease me about how unsouthern I am (they all laughed when I took a facebook quiz to find out if I was an alabamian, and the quiz called me a yankee).
The South truly is a beautiful area of the country, you will love it.
I think that people from Southern states like Alabama joke FL does not count because as my friends said "restaurants don't serve sweet tea after you get past a certain point" I am lucky, in that my hometown is less that hour away from flordia so I get to travel down a great bit. I just love flordia because it is maintained much more than say alabama or georgia, like when we drive down to Disney you know when you get past Tallahassee because things start getting a lot nicer.
You will most def be within driving distance to southern culture filled spots.
That has to be awesome having family so close, while you are on the CP! Can't believe it is only 17 days away, it will be awesome to meet you!

lol sweet tea.. My friend from tampa is crazy about it. When he was in Oregon for 4 months he went so crazy he had to make it for us.. It was so good!
and last month we were in D.C. at a Texas Resturaunt and they had sweet tea..he was so excited.
Anyways can't wait to meet you.
I think we are actuually facebook friends already. I haven't changed my username yet.

Long story short My name is Elizabeth Anne, it was too long and have gone by annie all my life ( recently the family started calling me beth) So on August 10th I'm officially going to be Beth Anne, my family seems to love the idea.

See you soon.
