Video: Disney World to Clermont, Florida motorhome travel timelapse
A timelapse of driving our RV, a Tiffin Allegro Bus motorhome, just 52 miles from Disney World, Florida to Clermont, Florida, including a picture-in-picture from the 360 camera on the truck being towed behind the coach.
Travel from Disney World to Clermont, Florida
We drove our coach just 52 miles, about an hour of driving, from Disney’s Fort Wilderness Campground in Disney World, Florida to Clermont, Florida.
It would actually take less than half an hour to go from Disney World to TTO (our destination), but check out time from Fort Wilderness was 11:00, and check in at TTO is very strictly not before noon, so we drove a longer route, with a fuel stop, to kill some time.
We’re planning to do this again next year, so next time we might instead wait in the Fort Wilderness overflow parking area, and go direct.
Here’s a map showing our route:

Leaving the Fort Wilderness campground; we drove separately to a hitch/unhitch area, and toaded up there:
This is the overflow parking area, which might be a better place to kill half an hour, if there’s available space:

Leaving the Disney World bubble; it’s been nice:
A Mickey-shaped power pole:
Fuel stop:
Our DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid, an additive to reduce pollutants) tank was about half full, but the DEF nozzle in our fuel lane was out of order, so we bought a Blue DEF box (for the first time):

Our destination, Thousand Trails Orlando:
TTO gate:
Unlike most Thousand Trails parks, at TTO arrivals go to a central area to await your turn to pick a site from a list of available ones. Since we arrived a bit after noon, there was a line of RVs waiting to get to that area:
We untoaded there:

Travel from Sugarloaf Key to Ohio Key, Florida
We drove our coach just 19 miles, less than half an hour of driving, from Sugarloaf Key, Florida to Ohio Key, Florida.
This was a late change, to avoid bad weather; we decided it was better to do most of the drive a couple of days earlier, then just a very short drive on the bad weather day. As a bonus, we got to experience another RV park in the Keys.
Here’s a map showing our route, heading back up the Overseas Highway in the Keys:

Departing:
Toading up outside the resort — which we did out of habit, though it occurred to us after we’d done so that we didn’t really need to for such a short journey. But it doesn’t take us long, so doesn’t matter:
