Getaway Escapade : Winter Park, Orlando
LEAD PARAGRAPH
When we talk about Orlando, it’s easy to picture Disney World, Universal Studios, Busch Garden and many other amusement parks. But really, Orlando is more than just about amusement parks. While the party scene at Downtown Orlando and watching the Broadway shows at DR Phillips Center for The Performing Arts happen to be something you have to experience at night, make sure to put Winter Park on your itinerary list to visit during the daytime. You’d love the little European vibe hiding just 20 minutes away from Downtown Orlando. You can either catch a bus number 102 and 313 ( only $2 per one way ) or take a Sunrail train from Lynx Central Station located at Downtown Orlando ( same price $2 per one way ). As you take a stroll along the arrays of restaurants, boutiques, museums, coffee shop and bars, we bet you just can’t help but loving your getaway in a suburban city in Orange County, Florida.

All day long Orloff had paced his cell. The blackness of the sky outside was equaled only by the blackness of his thoughts. The deep rolling of the thunder reverberated through the thick stone walls of his prison, and every now and then a fitful gust of rain swirled through the tiny broken window, wetting his face as he stared out into the night. Orloff cursed, wiped the water from his face with his grimy fingers, and turned to pacing his cell once more.
