Well I go to school at University of South Florida, so I am already here in Tampa! That's about a half hour away from disney. My family currently lives in Jacksonville so I drive by Disney almost every weekend. In my opinion, I would go FL if I were you. Aside from cost, there is soooo much more to do here at wdw. The best part is that most likely you will always have something new to see. I have been to DL many times, obviously, and I love it because its the original but WDW is in a class of its own. Strictly MY opinion. Keep in touch, if we do the cp together, we will definitely need to get together for drinks and reminisce about earthquakes, brush fires, high costs of living, and power outages! See ya real soon!
P.S. Good Luck on the audition...What character are you auditioning for?
