How long will it take me to drive from Orlando Florida to New Orleans, Louisiana?|136354

I_m trying to find a cheap way of getting to New Orleans, and flights are cheapest to Orlando. I know it_s about 650 miles to New Orleans from Orlando but is it an easy ride or ridiculous idea for only a week_s holiday? Thanks for your advice...

It takes about 12 hours to drive each way between Orlando and New Orleans. That gives you 5 full days in New Orleans, which is enough time for a decent visit. The trip is all via Interstate so it is an easy - if long - drive.

The second answer is correct and one can make the drive in 9 to 10 hours, but only if there are no traffic delays (maybe late at night) and no stops except the minimum required for fuel _ restroom (no meals).

You don_t need a car to get around in the French Quarter, Central Business District, or Warehouse District. Also, the parking regulations are Byzantine and there are lots of Parking Control Agents. If you drive or rent a car, leave it in a lot or garage unless you are traveling away from downtown.

The regional transit authority (www.norta.com) sells 1 and 3 day passes that offer unlimited use of buses and streetcars for the day(s) you select. There are also lots of taxicabs.

Hope you have a great trip!

My friend just did that, she drove at night and no traffic on high way, took her just over 9 hrs. She had a very nice peaceful calm drive.

Century City is mostly commercial. There are very few homes and they are all in the $1,000,000 or over range. West LA is a little cheaper, but not much!

How do I find legitimate workamper opportunities?|126135

My husband and I have recently started our adventure as full time RVers and I really would like to know how and where to find workamp opportunities. We are living off a very small amount every month and being able to work for our lot rent would make a HUGE difference to us. Please only answer if you really know where to find these kinds of opportunites and you have actually used the reference yourself.

One of the best programs is in the State of Alaska as a campground host at one of the many state campgrounds. These are great opportunities to explore the great land of Alaska.

there is also a stipend allotment available at some of our parks; it is truly a great opportunity. Training is included and of course you stay free in the park!

Check it out!

Camai!

What is the name of the bridge that connects you to Clearwater Beach?|104246

We drove from Orlando to Clearwater Beach, FL and went over this long bridge across the water. I was just wondering if anyone knew the name of it. Is it the seven mile bridge because it seemed to be that long?

A lot depends upon which highway you took. It sounds like you were on I-275 and that would be the Howard Franklin Bridge, crossing Tampa Bay. If you were on Florida 60, that could have been the Courtney Campbell Causeway across Tampa Bay. Farther West it_s the Memorial Causeway, a much shorter span. This is the very last span taking you to Clearwater Beach. Coming from the South from Sand Key is a very short bridge on SR 699.

From Tampa, you would have taken Rt. 60 over the Courtney Campbell Causeway, which isn_t as long as the Howard Franklin or the Gandy Bridges. You would have driven across the city of Clearwater and across the Memorial Causeway, which is much shorter, into the beach area.

What is the prettiest town in Washington?|178170

I_m writing a book and am looking for a small town in Washington, preferably with beautiful scenery where it rains a lot. It also shouldn_t be on a reservation of any kind, near one is fine though. And along any rivers or coast is a plus also. Thanks!

The scenery on the peninsula is probably the best. That is where the rain forest is. There are a few small towns there. I_ll post a link with an overview of the coast if that helps.
