Generally, Liz, the road border guards are grand ... but in no hurry. i guess it's not like an airport with X number of folks needing to get on a plane (this is for countries with pre-clearance like...

We cross from Canada to the US regularly by road. You are spot on, ESTA is only for air (and sea?). If you have ESTA it makes the I-94W process quicker (I think it's now a white form instead of the...
We went on the 28th of December.
First and foremost - the food is excellent!
Atmosphere - I liked it, Mrs MTP preferred the original. It feels more roomy inside and is a much bigger space,...
*cough*
... and not just that, please remember that the local sheriffs do not answer to the state of Florida. There has been no statement by them to say that they will not enforce it. So while Florida...
Just to point out that although the FHP will not enforce this law at the moment, there are hundreds of local sheriff offices that could and they don't answer to Florida State, but the local counties....
You are lucky, here in Canada it is $25 and one year.
Every day's a school day, thanks Dave.
Dave, do they not take the food allergy seriously? I thought restaurants were very good at this stuff now due to fear of litigation.
We met with some Swedes who were staying at a villa near ours at New Year and they too don't have a tipping culture and were finding it very strange. As Vikk says, though, it's how it is there so...
Yes, but if you are good at your job as a server, would you work in such a place? In fact would the business survive at all? Perhaps if it was in a great location with a good churn of footfall,...
Squid Lips in Sebastian is a good restaurant and definitely worth a trip. There's also the Mel Fischer treasure museum.
Randy, have you ever driven down?
We are planning to do so for March (from Halifax, NS).
We are reckoning on 2 1/2 days each way, without doing crazy long days. The cost difference compared to...
Yes, a sign at the alcohol section stating ID required for everyone would be a good idea.
To be honest, I always think that the comments criticising the US's habits, customs, accepted norms, etc a little bizarre. You're in a different country, why should their laws or customs be the same...
Also we were at the Showcase of Citrus today on US27. It was very busy! Great for U-Pick citrus fruits, which is great fun, and if you want you can do the monster truck swamp buggy tour. This is...
We've just spent the day at the Orlando Science Center. The current Star Wars exhibit is fantastic and we topped the day off with watching the Polar Express on their newly rejuvenated Adventure...
I have to say that I've been tempted many times by the full-size SUV ... however ... the head rules and we end up with a Minivan. For preference I like the Chrysler Town & Country over the Dodge...
From memory it is a 2/1 split so that you could put down one single seat and have the two together. The only issue is that the one that you put down is not in the middle so the two on the bench seat...
Ooooh, I had forgotten about that!
I've only seen the Mall of Millenia after the big fella's left and I've thought that the theming does look wonderful, yet, it feels kind of like you're maybe visiting him in a bit of an amphitheatre,...
We will be in Florida a little before Christmas this year, has anyone done a visit with Santa that they would recommend?
Cool, thanks Dave.
If you buy tickets for this, you still need a standard ticket for the park as well?
As someone who has had to drive around searching out Scrapbook shops for TOH, I can recommend (by proxy) the one near the Florida Mall.
It is in the strip mall beyond the Florida Mall on Sand Lake...
