Always meaning to do Mount FDora, maybe find sometime this week or leave it til Xmas.

I've put it on my list of places to visit when we are over there in November along with Lake Louisa State Park and the Scenic Boat Tour in Winter Park.

I can definitely recommend the scenic boat tour in Winter Park. Very relaxing. The guides are great, they seem to know who owns every house around the lake as well as how much they are worth.

I would also recommend a trip to the Hosmer Morse Museum on Park Avenue, Winter Park for anyone who likes Art Nouveau or Tiffany glass, though probably not the best place to visit if you've got children with you.

Mount Dora is on my next 'to do' list.....will try to fit in Winter Park if possible too.

We intended to do Mount Dora last time we were at our villa in March but didnt get around to it, will have to try to fit it in when we are over in 2 weeks time.
