Now I know why people go down there during the WINTER (as opposed to the Summer). Very nice. Even in Orlando - which is, as far as I can see, where God put the extra flat terrain, moss, snakes and damp he had left over from his other projects.
The kids got their DisneyWorld(tm) experience - and we also took in Sea World(tm). Both places are fun to visit but just a tad depressing in retrospect. My favorite rides where the Mission to Mars (they put you in a centrifuge - find out what it feels like to weigh 3x your body weight and have the corners of your mouth stretched around to the nape of your neck! - I was sick for the rest of the day but it was still worth it) and the Dinosaur ride - which was pretty cool. I looked in vain for the 20K Leagues Under the Sea Ride I rode as a child (deep 6'd some time ago, apparently) but we did the Haunted Mansion - which still holds up well. At AnimalKingdom(tm) we got to see not one but two kinds of Rinos defecate. Also were assaulted by goats.
The kids had a great time and we spent lots of time together with all the ups and downs that entails. Overall -well worth the money.
