You just were traveling on the wrong days. The FUN BUS went down to Daytona on2/15-16 and came back on 2/24-25. Yep got to drive home in the snow. It may been hard to spot the FUN BUS anyway as it was tucked behind the BIG BUS. I Saw a bay Window in St. Augustine and a few Vanagons at Disney. They are becoming rare.
