Tropical Palms RV Resort is the most convenient Thousand Trails park to Disney World, and unsurprisingly we could never find a spot here last time we were in Orlando. This time around we got in! I'm not sure whether it's because we're looking pre-Winter (not as busy?) or because the Canadians have been largely unable to come to the US (though that seems to be changing), but we made it! This is my favorite Orlando-area Thousand Trails park so far! It is clean and well-kept with concrete pads for the RVs and several trees scattered throughout, plus the laundromat is HUGE and clean with new machines.

On our way to the campground we stopped by Tire Pro Mobile RV & Commercial Truck Tire Repair to get our front tires replaced. We really liked the mechanic who owns this business - he was knowledgeable and friendly with reasonable prices, and he seemed quite honest. He told us we were probably ok for many more months, but together we decided that since Aaron and I are planning a big trip to Texas later in the winter, we should go ahead and get the tires replaced. Aaron really enjoyed watching him work and asking lots of questions.

The mechanic had a seriously
impressive set of tools in his truck! |
We only had a 12 minute drive to Hollywood Studios, where we enjoyed some holiday fun.

We also took a quick trip to Epcot and Magic Kingdom.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in Orlando!
