Where do you "drive" offsite when at WDW?
We've always flown down ... and consequently, always stayed at WDW (unless we took a cab to Universal).
Where do YOU drive to when down at WDW ... any particularly great shopping areas, outlets, disney outlets, restaurants that are not to be missed ... you name it!!
Thanks!

Our first sto is usually to a car wash to get rid of 3000km of road grime!
We like going to Olde Towne in Kissimmee on Friday or Saturday night for their car cruise nights. It has a little shopping area with a cool nostalgia store and a little amusement park. You can see the lights from miles away.
We have gone to the malls too. If you do a search of Orlando malls and Orlando outlet malls they will all pop up.
Have a great time! You will love having a car with you!!!

Actually we often never leave WDW property once we are on site.
When we do leave it is usually to go to Universal City Walk!
One place we love to have a car for is Downtown Disney. I do not like the bus service there.

Not fancy, but a great way to ease the pain of dining on site is to hit a few off site locations for meals. We normally hit Fuddruckers and Sweet Tomatoes. We really enjoy both, and you can eat excellent meals for under $10 a person.

If you enjoy a variety of restaurants, starting at Hotel Plaza Blvd. drive north on SR535 (Apopka-Vineland Road) for five miles to Sand Lake Road. Turn right and after a few blocks you'll see a wide choice of restaurants on both sides of the road. This area is known as "Restaurant Row", all within about a half mile. You'll find everything from fine dining (Roy's, Seasons 52, Bonefish Grill) to pizza parlors and taco shops.

We usually head to the Outlet mall just southeast of the property on 535 (?). I would say it is a 10 minute drive. Only half of us go shopping the other half takes a nap in the room or goes swimming. We make a trip to Wal-Mart too the day we get there.
