Floridaland was in either Nokomis or Osprey, Fla. The line blurs from one town to the next, however, it was inbetween Sarasota and Venice. Pretty cool old Florida attraction in it's day. The bad news is that when it closed they released all the tame/trained dolphin into the Intercoastal Waterway and left them to fend for themselves. I remember them following my parents' boat when we would go out on the weekends, they were always looking for food from humans...their children, grandchildren, etc are still in the same waters and are too docile for 'wild dolphin'. Breaks my heart...
Anyways, there's your little Florida trivia for the day :wink:
