About A.D.
Amy Drew has spent nearly three decades as a professional writer and roughly half her life as a Floridian. The words, she has found, come easier with bare feet and rum.
A roller coaster enthusiast, A.D. readily admits there is fun amid the madness of the theme parks, but has found there is magic, as well, in the outer-lying reaches of Mickey’s long shadow. She is delighted to share with you the spoils of her adopted city.

A.D.'s Special Recommendations for Orlando
Amy says, "Don't leave Orlando without visiting the Farmer's Market at Lake Eola Park. Enjoy local (less expensive!) color just minutes from the theme parks."
