The sign is a little blurry. But, we finally made it to FLORIDA! |
 |
The old I-10 bridge over Escambia Bay in Pensacola was damaged during Hurricane Ivan. Well, they have built a new bridge and it
was just recently opened. |

2 lanes of traffic each way. It looks like this one bridge will handle both directions for a while. And another span
will be built. |

We arrived at
Walt Disney World Fort Wilderness Park
 early in the afternoon on Saturday, January 6. We got one of only 2 pull-thru sites in the
park. We had asked for one when we made our reservations back in September. But, really we never expected to get one! This
campground is set up in loops rather than straight rows of campsites, and they are pretty tight. Backing into one of these sites is
challenging at best. Mark was prepared for a back-in, but was not looking forward to it. . We got lucky today!

How Disney made a pull-thru... They selected an existing site that backs up to the main road. They knocked down the foliage
between a site and the road and spread gravel. We understand that this is an experiment. I would say that if Disney finds the
pull-thrus successful, they will probably extend the concrete pads. |
 |
We even found a hole in the trees for the internet satellite. The other pull-thru site is in the background. |

Normally there would be trees behind us to block the road. But it is not obtrusive. |
 |
There is another HDT on the loop. |
