I love Orlando, been there twice and loved both trips but I have never been to a disney park. Just could not justify the rather large one day entrance price.
Seaworld: I like the park, the dolphin show is very impressive, love the birds flying over the crowd
The Clyde and Seamore show is very good, very funny and the mime guy at the start is brilliant, (if you want to spoil the enjoyment youtube seaworld mime guy.)
Manta is one of my favourite rides in Orlando, but last time we visited they staff were being very slow....
Busch Gardens: Loved this park, bit annoying to get to, needs to be closer to Orlando
Some awesome rides, the park is nicely kept and most of the animals look like they have a lot of space. Annoyingly they will still building cheetah hunt when we visited.
IOA: I love this park a lot, this is probably my favourite park in Orlando. The themeing is wonderful, the rides and amazing and the whole feel of the park is great. Spiderman cannot be missed neither can forbidden journey. They are both amazing dark rides.
Its a bit sad that dragons challenge does not duel any more but they are still both really good rides.
Universal: I enjoy this park, the themeing is amazing, I love the feeling of walking down hollywood outside the T2 3D show. Revenge of the Mummy has to be my favourite ride in Orlando, its just so much fun. The queue is amazing I love being able to scare people in the queue with the help of that button.
The ride itself is brilliant, starts nice and slowly with some stuff to see then it just goes mad and just is great fun!
I enjoy the T2 show, its great fun and never really gets boring. Also its inside and has aircon so thats always a big draw
Aquatica: A lovely newish water park, really clean and has some awesome slides but dont bother with the Dolphin plunge its just a rubbish gimmick.
Roas rapids are great fun, much more fun than a lazy river.
Its a great park, could easily spend a few days at that park.
Discovery Cove:
Well what can I say about this place? A lot of people consider this place expensive. It depends how you work it with tickets. If you go for the ultimate tickets that include 14 days Busch, Seaword and Aquatica it does not work out that expensive I think.
The Dolphin interaction is good, and the tow to shore is cool, amazing how powerful the Dolphins are. They are also very playful.
The rest of the park is beautiful, lots of staff to help you with anything. Free food and snacks all day. The aviary is amazing, the birds are so friendly and its great fun feeding them.
The lazy river is very lazy, just drifts slowly round the park but its lovely and warm after being in the cooler ray pool/ tropical reef.
The ray pool is amazing, they avoid people so easily. Its best just to find somewhere to stand or sit on a rock and the rays will come and see you after a while.
They have added some new parts since I last visited and they look just as good
Edit: I forgot about Kennedy Space centre!
Go there! Now do it! stop sitting here reading and get your flights booked!
If you like space its an amazing place, lots of stuff to see, lots of stuff to learn about and there are some amazing bits of history there.
The Saturn V building is awesome. You see a little film about the start of the American attempt to launch rockets which ended in them just blowing a lot of them up on the launch pad.
Then you move into mission control for one of the Apollo launches. Each station lights up as they talk about the launch and then do the countdown.
You then move on to the actual building that the Saturn V rocket is. Its massive is an understatement!
Amazing that we could build something like that in the 60s, the technology is mind blowing. Its the most reliable rocket that Nasa ever used, they never lost one in all the launches it did.
Its also a nice scenic drive out there and back, also watch out for wild life at Kennedy, there are all sort that live there!
