Floridians, Meet up in Orlando? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Nikki+2 · 01-09-2008, 01:14 PM

Hey Floridians, there are so many of us here at YT, let's actually meet each other!

Who would be interested in a meet up in Orlando? Caren (sims822257) and I have been talking about doing this and it would be great if we could make it happen before it gets too hot again. Orlando is a nice central location and it's a good excuse for a little Disney (or shopping) vacation

. We were thinking we could all meet at a dog park, Caren found a great site that reveiws the local dog parks- http://www.orlandodogparks.com/dog_p...al_florida.php and we were thinking the Pawposa looked good- what do y'all think? Is anyone interested and if so do you have a month you prefer?

Ooh..count us in! I just love the outlet malls in Orlando! We live in Tampa, so we would probably stay the night in Orlando. Are you familiar w/ any pet friendly hotels in Orlando?

LunasMomma · 01-09-2008, 02:40 PM

Sounds like fun

I'm in Stuart, so would also stay overnight. I'd love to do it in March, it'll give us all time to recoup from the Holidays. I'm broke right now

Mr. Biggs and I are game for a meet-up. We're in tampa as well, but if the park is anywhere near the outlets, then we're only 45 minutes away

We could always gather together for a doggy meet-up/outlet shopping day. lol. If anyone from Tampa is staying overnight, we should all try and stay at the same hotel. You can stay at most hotels on International drive and pay a $25-$50 fee for the dogs.

We're also down for a pre-orlando meet-up in Tampa

If anyone is free for a couple hours this weekend, let us know!

I would love to except I work nights on the weekends. Depending on the time I may be able to lose some sleep and spare a couple of hours

Nikki+2 · 01-09-2008, 03:12 PM

Does March work for everyone? It would be so fun if we all stayed at the same hotel. I'm coming from Melbourne but I'll probably stay overnight so I don't have to worry about getting home. The link I posted also has pet friendly restaurants for dinner. Yay I'm getting so excited!

pinkshoesgal · 01-09-2008, 03:16 PM

I'm so jealous you all live near each other in Tampa! Pixie and I are in Fort Lauderdale, but we could be tempted to come and spend the night in Orlando. I would love to carpool and get a hotel room with any other people from South Florida. I have a company car, so I could drive.

OMG how exciting a day at the park with the cutest dogs ever, some shopping and dinner with a bunch of yorkies. Can you imagine the look we would get from other people while eating dinner surrounded by yorkies.LOL I love it. Sounds like it would be a blast.
