Where We Are Now

We landed this afternoon at Ely KOA Journey, pretty much right in the middle of Nevada, elevation, 6500 ft. This is just a stop-over for a night, but it really is a nice campground. We plan to drive around this after and check out the town.

Where to Next

From here we're heading north to Idaho. Our first stop is a place called Anderson Camp. We plan to spend a couple of days there so we can check out Shoshone Falls and what's left of Twin Falls

Tropical Palms RV Resort

     When we arrived here we were assigned a site in the back 40.  We found the site, backed in, powered up and leveled only to realize that we were one space over.  So we moved to the correct spot and got all set up.  This section of the park was mostly empty and the site we were given was right next to a homesteader with tarps over things and stuff all over.  So we decided to go ask if we could move to one of the other vacant sites which offered more shade and wasn't right on top of this other camper.  That worked for them, so we wound up with a much nicer site.  The park has some nice picnic areas, miniature golf, pool and other amenities. However, with its proximity to Disney World, we really didn't use much of the park's services.  It has manufactured homes to buy, park models to rent, deluxe paved RV site, full-hookup back-in sites on grass, and electric/water only back-in sites.  The staff is friendly and the gate security is manned 24 hours a day.

      Being from the west coast, Jackie and I have been to Disneyland many times, so of course, everything in Disney Wolrd was compared with that.  Disney World has four parks while Disneyland has only two.  We first visited the Magic Kingdom and it was like Disneyland light.  It wasn't until we had visited all four parks did we see that pretty much every ride in California had the same or a similar ride here in Florida.  It was just spread out among the for parks.  Some rides were exactly the same, for example, the haunted house, while other rides used the same equipment but were different., soring over California is changed to soring over the world.  The biggest difference is the Animal Kingdom.  There is nothing in California even close to it.  The Animal Kingdom is a theme park and zoo/safari all in one.  I was really impressed!
