Renting an RV
There have been some excellent points made since my last post. Most notably that, if you've never RVed before you may not really like it, and last thing you want to do is figure that out on a 5-week epic voyage! You might want to rent one for 3-4 days and camp somewhere not too far from home. My favorite campground is just an hour up the road from you, Disney's Fort Wilderness Campground. It's a wonderful campground on Disney property (actually one of the first resorts built there) with tons to do even without doing anything related to the parks. If you feel you're "roughing it" at the Fort, you are certainly not ready for most state parks (most have no sewer, and many no electric), for instance. In fact, if you're interested, I know a fellow who rents campers and delivers them to the Fort, hooks them up, and provides all the sundries you need (except food) for a lot less than Cruise America, but then you'd miss out on some of the "tests" to see if RVing is a good fit (driving, backing into a site, setting up). But it might be a good baby step.
