YAY! I am so excited to meet new people in S. Florida since I bearly know anyone down there, I would love a get together!
Adpiucf- I am taking the amtrak Auto Train from PA to Orlando and then driving the rest to Ft. Laud. Its not overly expensive, no more than what it would cost to drive down, you get a sleeper room and your meals are included. check out
www.amtrak.com the auto train info is kind of hard to find, so do a search for it. They only have specific stations they travel out of, so you may have to drive to get to it.
