Cool things I experienced along the way: 

* In contrast to my last trail, the most urban trail so far

* Got to stop by my friend's Mark & Liz after my ride since they live within 2 blocks of the trailhead!

* Trailhead was very close to Orlando Executive Airport and near the mall

The Cady Way Trailhead is about the mid-point of this trail.  

That's where I began my journey.

The morning shadow

There's a separate path for walkers and bikers -- keep your distance!!!

 

The trail comes out to SR 50 and in the distance is a familiar spot...  Orlando Executive Airport!

Interesting painting on this building

 

Not a pretty part of the trail...zzzzt!

Lots of pretty trees and new homes along the way

 

 

The trailhead is near the Colonial Mall and leads right into the parking lot

  

  

Back to the beginning

Barbed Wire in the middle of town              Funny looking yet functional benches

  

Old Winter Park Homes                            Other side of the street New Baldwin Park

    

Ooohhh, the purple bus!

 

 

 

 

Passing back through Cady Way Trailhead

Ahhh... the new 436 overpass bridge!

 

Up  on the bridge... north view...                 and south view...

Near my old neighborhood

 

I used to get my groceries at this shopping center!

 

Directional sign                                        Good old Hall Road

 

Finally... a shady, rural spot in the trail          There's a horse in this picture

 

Neat texture on this expressway overpass.  The 417 that circles Orlando

 

Mile marker 2.5

   

 

  

A nice park in Goldenrod
