*** Box 3 is still in place, as of March 2008, but it is not accessible due to a temporary fence put up to protect nesting black swans. The nesting swans are beautiful to watch, what amazing protective parents. I'll update the clues when the fence comes down. ***

Lake Eola, a popular park located in downtown Orlando, is used for family picnics, weddings, exercise and dog-walking on the walkway circling the lake. Major events in the park draw thousands of visitors to Eola's shores several times a year. This park is very popular, so please use utmost caution when searching for and re-hiding this letterbox.

To get to lake Eola, take I-4 to Colonial Drive (Hwy. 50). Head east on Colonial. Turn right onto Orange Avenue. Turn Left onto Central Boulevard. Follow Central until you reach Lake Eola.

#3. HERE COMES THE SUN

Park where you can. Take the walkway, counter-clockwise, from the Japanese pagoda. Shortly you will reach a small bridge with heavy metal railings. Don't cross over the bridge. Go behind the railing on the left side of the bridge. Move the only rock small enough to move away or roll back (it's about basketball size, and heavy). This will reveal a crevice under a huge rock. The letterbox is within the crevice.
