[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Orlando and the seven seas lagoon isn't for swimming. Florida lakes are unsafe to swim in due to bacteria. Disney has no alligator signs posted. [/quote]

I can see how alligator signs might not be very "magical" but honestly that is appalling.  Especially if they are as prevalent as this thread suggests.[/quote]

I stayed at the Polynesian Resort ten years ago and we were surprised how much it is set up like a beach resort. All that sand to run around on right up to the lagoon. There were signs for no swimming. There were NO signs for beware of alligators or do not walk with your feet in the water as this toddler was doing. Families are all over the beach at night watching fireworks. Disney encourages it. It looks like a beach and Disney has it set up that way even though they know alligators lurk in the waters.

Yikes terrifying!

I grew up in Florida and we just avoid all natural lakes like the plague.  My husband is from California and makes fun of me all the time for this.  I think if you grow up there you know better than to go into a lake.  You'll be fine as an adult, but a two year old or a dog is just the right size for them...[/quote]
