Wekiwa Springs
First stop on the way to the wedding was this state park in the north part of greater Orlando. It was an okay place, pretty hemmed in by development but nicely kept. The big draw here is the spring and it is packed with people enjoying the 68 degree water in the hot Florida sun. The campground had 60 spaces with electric and water and a few of those had sewer. We took a 3 mile hike at Sand Beach but did not see much wildlife. One red-shouldered hawk. But it was a neat, mossy, humid environment with lots of various palms and ferns. Could not imagine cutting through this stuff like the Spanish explorers did in helmets and breastplates. I would have been dead by the end of the first week.
