FIRST STOP: Orlando, Florida

I been researching this place and found it is the 79th largest city(27th largest metro area, or 6th largest in the south) in the US because it holds a population of 238,300 people. Back then, the place was known as Jernigan from the first permanent settler, Aaron Jernigan, a cattleman who acquired land along Lake Holden by the terms of the Armed Occupation Act in 1842. few years later, Jernigan became Orlando in 1857. The place was nicknamed "The City Beautiful," and its symbol is the fountain at Lake Eola. That's all i know for now, but now I'll go straight to he attractions.
