Driving from Ft. Lauderdale?

Hi

We have to attend a conference in Hollywood Florida first, then we plan on driving to Orlando where we will stay 7 nights at POR. Do you have any advice on where we should stop for lunch and a rest during our road trip? Also, where is the best place we can pick up a case of water and snack food, etc. for our stay in Disneyworld? We would like to buy some bread, yogurt, fruit, maybe a cheap toaster.

Thank you

It%26#39;s only about 3 hours to Orlando from Ft. Lauderdale. 4 at the most depending on traffic. If you jump on the turnpike you won%26#39;t find many places to stop once you get north of Jupiter. Cracker Barrell restaurant has basic home cooked style food and is reasonbly priced. if you just want something basic they are near the turnpike or I-95 depending on the route you are taking. If you want fancy West Palm or Orlando is going to be your best bet as everything else will require driving into town to find a place to eat. Orlando has many good restaurants to eat at.

Any Wal-Mart will have your basic staples. Most are open 24 hours. And there a Wal-Marts everywhere. They will have your toaster too.

I would have a nice breakfast before you leave. If you just take a few snacks in the car, you won%26#39;t need to make a stop until you get to Orlando. It should only take about 4 hours or so on the turnpike, if there aren%26#39;t any traffic issues. There are service plazas on the turnpike with food, fuel, and facilities, if you need to make a stop and don%26#39;t want to exit the highway.

Do you know if the traffic on the turnpike will be heavy on Sat. Nov 25th? That is the Sat the Thanksgiving wknd.

Thanks for all your help.
