Killing time in Orlando

[MSPeeler]

Did you guys get "good" or "bad" names?

I don't remember exactly, but I think my mother-in-law and my son were the only ones in our party of six that survived.

Any close grocery stores near by worth the trip? I think we have a 2 hr window after landing...TIA

Nearby the airport? Not really. And catching a taxi there and back would probably run you around $50.00 Do you have a "2 hr window" from when the plane is scheduled to land before the all aboard? That's cutting it a little close, as the trip from the airport to port takes about an hour, with good traffic. If there are any traffic issues you could be delayed.

There is a Publix about 3 miles from the airport on Hoffner.

Thanks all so much all!

Thanks! We may just see what our mood is when we get there. We have husband, myself and 14 year old daughter. I'm fine with relaxing in the Florida sun and watching the planes but wasn't sure if there was a "must do".

Old Town! Lots of great classic rides.

We land in Orlando around 2 pm on the day before our cruise. We are staying at MCO Hyatt and were wondering what would be recommended for the afternoon/evening. We've done WDW and are not interested in going back to that. I know the Hyatt has a pool, and we can eat in the airport, but what other options would you suggest?

I'm not sure when you're going to be here, but they're currently building a shopping/restaurant complex right by the airport if you don't want to head into the attractions area.

There's also a movie theater there as well. There are actually quite a few restaurants just by the airport (mostly chains, but some decent ones).
