Our party consists of 4 adults and 2 boys, one is 16 and the other is 5. We will be in Orlando for a total of 8 days. In mid-June. We have 5 day park-hopper passes for the World, then we planned to use one day for Honeymoon Island/beach, then we have an extra day outside of our flight days. Here is our options, and I want input from you all on them:
--Seaworld
--Universal Studios
--Downtown Disney
--one of the water parks

We took a family poll and we are all divided. My solution was to put it all in a hat and draw one. I thought Seaworld might be educational for the 5 year old, my hubs is leaning towards Downtown Disney to sightsee and go on a roller coaster simulator, both hubs and the teenager said yes to a water park, the teenager is pushing for Universal as his main choice because back in 2005 when we went I was sick on our Universal day so we only got a few hours there and only got to ride 2 rides.

I wouldn't mind Harry Potter land as I'm a big fan, but we can't afford the park-hopper tickets for IOA and Universal.

What say all of you? Pros, cons, perks of each?

Blessings, Michelle

P.S. We are staying at the Swan.
 
If your ticket includes the water park option then I would definitely say one of the Disney waterparks. If it doesn't then I would go for Aquatica as its great. My son is 12 and definitely his favourite water park. Also might be a bit more relaxing than another park like Universal, although that is my sons absolute favourite place. We have 3 weeks in July/August and costing us £550 to add Universal on for 2 days so not cheap.
We love all your options so its going to be a difficult choice. Good luck and have a great time.
 
I would choose Universal because of the new Transformers ride. But this is a personal preference.
