Disney And Other Attraction Visits

[Miss Stitch]

hi, I will be visiting WDW for the second time in 2007 from england. On the first visit we just did Disney, Disney and more disney. As we are not likely to get back for a good few years we want to do some other stuff as well this time. We will be in Orlando for 14 days and am buying two fourteen days passes for our family, me dh and thee ds 14, 12 and 8, one to Universal and one obviously for Disney, so we can hop between the two anytime. But we also fancy doing some other stuff. Are Kennedy Space Center and Wonderworks worth a visit? Is the Go Orlando card worth buying and where can I get it from when I arrive in Orlando (was thinking of the three day one and maybe go Gatorland too) and does anyone know if you can get transport to KSC, (We dont drive) We will be staying on I Drive this time so that we are more central. Do you think I will have time for all this? I thought maybe five days in Disney, three or four in Universal and some a mega shopping day and and the other days at the other attractions. Sorry Its so long.

Gatorland is a little hoky & corny but your 12 yo & 8 yo will enjoy it. We are doing one day at Gatorland on our next trip (summer 2007) it's a nice calm day...not so busy. We usually do that as 1/2-3/4 of the day then make reservations to eat someplace nice in the evening.

I do have one suggestion of someplace else to go too. We absolutely adore Sea World! There is so much to see & do there that we need 2 days to even come close to seeing it all.

I've only done Universal once about 12 years ago and wasn't terribly impressed. But then again, I'm not huge into thrill rides.

Also you might want to try to hit one of the WDW water parks if the time of year is right. Many love Blizzard beach but we are partial to Typhoon Laggoon. That's another day we just do 1/2 to 3/4 of the day then make plans for a nice dinner in the evening.
