Killing time before flight home

[kb111570]

Does anyone have any ideas for killing time before our flight home? Our flight doesn't leave until 10 pm. I was thinking about going to a water park.

Who is in your party? Kids. Adults? Do you have your own transportation?

Depending on the make up of your group, the Kennedy Space Center is a great option. Our flight left at 5:00pm so we drove directly from the port to the Space Center and spent about 5 hours there. You need an entire day so it would be perfect for you. We had me, DH, DS 8, DS 8 and DS 5, plus MIL, FIL. I wouldn't recommend it for much younger than this, my DH and FIL enjoyed it far more than the rest of us!

Sorry, that info was important. It will be 4 of us. Husband, myself, and 2 kids. (7 and 3 yrs old) We are renting a car to drive back to the airport. So transportation won't be a problem.

There quite a few "half day" attractions in Orlando. The water park idea could be fun, but you have to think about getting cleaned up afterward. I have not been to any of the water parks (except Discovery Cove, which does have very nice "locker rooms") to comment on changing facilities. Nap time could be a concern also. Some people get "day rooms" at the Hyatt at the airport. They have a pool. Don't know how late you can stay there. The Orlando Museum of Art is having a Chihuly (the maker of the big glass chandelier in the atrium of the Wonder) exhibit until end of May. Not interesting for the kids, but the Art Museum is a block from the Orlando Science Center which has stuff for all ages. Downtown Disney is fun also (Lego Store especially, for kids). Lots more out there.
