ORLANDO
, a quiet farming town in 1970, now has more visitors than any other place in the state. The reason, of course, is
Walt Disney World
, which, along with
Universal Studios Escape, Sea World
and a host of themed attractions, pulls more than 25 million people a year to a previously featureless plot of scrubland. Few people head to Orlando proper, choosing instead one of the countless motels along
Hwy-192
, fifteen miles south, or
International Drive
, five miles southwest. Despite enormous expansion over the last decade, the town itself remains free of the commercialism that surrounds it.
