At Disney Epcot the Living With The Land ride takes people through various huge conservatories planted beautifully with interesting and educational exhibits – it’s also possible to take an inexpensive tour into the area, seeing everything in more detail. We’ve done this before but chose to do it again today because Epcot was very busy and the tour is a relaxing alternative to standing in queues!
It’s nearly ten years since we bought 8002, originally our Florida vacation home – and eventually a very useful “staging home” when we moved from Massachusetts. Once we’d moved to our current home, we rented 8002 for a while but that ended badly with no payments and lots to repair, so a year ago we decided to sell – and it’s taken this long! We lost a lot (buying just before the big housing crash!), but 8002 was a great vacation home and made moving to Florida a lot easier.
So, last pictures of 8002, now sold …
Right next door to The Citrus Tower in Clermont is the President’s Hall Of Fame – another less popular perhaps struggling attraction, this one rather expensive to visit too. But we were having an enjoyable non-Disney day, so here’s lots more pictures!
Outside, there’s a “model” of Mount Rushmore, or at least something reminiscent; and a copy of Abraham Lincoln from his memorial too:
Indoors, past the eccentric gift store, are various amazingly detailed scale models of the White House – including one that represents the original construction:
Also a very large and detailed model of “today’s” White House, complete with many fully furnished rooms – photos make it look like we were spying!
