WDW to Daytona

[ugadog99]

Hi All,
I'm contemplating a last minute trip to Pop Century in order to attend the Jonas Brothers' concert at the Ocean Center in Daytona. Can someone give me the easiest directions from Pop to Daytona. Also, does anyone have any idea how much I can expect to pay for parking and what kind of inexpensive restaurants will I find convenient to the Ocean Center. This has to be an extremely budget trip, so any and all advice is welcome!

Take Rt. 4 East and that will take you to Daytona. I'm not sure about the other details.

I4 east to 95 north. Take 95 to the International Speedway Blvd. exit. International Speedway Blvd all the way down to A1A, Ocean Center is on the left side. I think it's something like 8-10 miles from 95 to A1A.

Google Maps knows the way.

Oh, and there's a slew of stuff to eat at across the street from the Ocean Center at the big Boardwalk thing they built. Bubba Gump Shrimp, places like that.

I THINK it's $15 to park at the Ocean Center.

Thanks! I'm trying to get this all worked out for my daughters without putting too much of a crimp in my budget. (Okay, I'm lying...I'm trying to get it worked out for all three of us because I just those boys!)

There is also Hog Heaven pretty close by the Ocean Center. It's a great BBQ place right across from the Hilton. You can see the Hilton as you come across the bridge from International Speedway. Hog Heaven is where we had our dinner after our wedding. We got married, went to the Harley store, checked in at the Hilton and ate at Hog Heaven! We have to eat there often for the history of it all....

As for directions, take I-4 East to exit 129 for International Speedway Blvd. Stay on ISB until you get to A1A. Turn left. The Ocean Center will be on your left right past Hog Heaven.

Have fun!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Is Hog Heaven close enough to park at the Ocean Center and walk? (Parking isn't as bad as I thought it would be!) I am so, so hoping I can work all this out!

It's literally right next door. And it's good BBQ, too

Thanks! I see there's a Johnny Rockets, too. I have a feeling that's what the girls are going to want!

Absolutely! We love to get a window seat and watch everyone go by. Quite amusing at some times of the year! Oh, and they have fried corn on the cob...it's great but be sure you have a toothpick.

Well, my vote is Hog Heaven, but I have a feeling I'll be outnumbered!
