What not to miss

[nannoo]

This time I want to pick your brains about your most favourite places. What would you absolutely recommend as a "mustn't be missed" experience? Forget the big rides (too much of a coward) but otherwise, best restaurant, themed meal, attraction, shopping experience, off-site adventure ... anything you personally enjoyed above (or as well as) all others.

Thanks - and hope everyone has a great weekend.

These based on off-site visits

All disney evening shows (spectromagic, EPCOT & Fantasmic)

Main disney daytime parade

Poseidons Fury at IOA- Best walkthrough attraction in the world.

Sinbad show IOA- Probably best seated show in florida parks IMO

Restaurants (offsite) Outback grill on the 192 and Planet Hollywood IMO

Non Parks- If you like crazy golf, try one of the many ones.

Non-Parks- If you have a hire car, try to spend at least a half day on the gulf coast, away from the big towns.

Shopping- Belz obviously (although sports bargains were few & far between this year). Good esp. for kids items including OSHKOSH, Ralph Lauren, Gap etc etc.

Shopping- No trip is complete without at least a curious visit around one of the walmarts..... trouble is.... where is the exit!!!!

Best show: Cirque Du Soleil ( by a MILE )
Best free (in park) shows: Lion King @ AK, Illuminations @Epcot,
Clyde and Seamore show and Shamu show ( both at SW).
Best ride: Spiderman at IOA ( an absolute must even if you're a wimp LOL)
Favourite character park restaurant: Crystal Palace @MK
Favourite park restaurants: Akerhus and Le Cellier ( both Epcot)
Favourite Disney resort restaurant: Boma's at AKL
Favourite off site restaurant: Bahama Breeze
Best day out: Discovery Cove, absolutely stunning and a very special day, probably the last time I saw the "little girl" in my rapidly maturing (read cynical LOL) cool/hip then 16 year old daughter.

Thing I enjoyed above all others, watching both my daughters ( at separate times) "star" in the SeaWorld dolphin shows. I still mist up thinking about their very different (but equally precious) reactions to the "big finale" where they are asked to jump into the dolphin pool where Cindy will come swim underneath them and give them a ride around the pool while they have to wave to the crowd. It's funny when the kid belongs to someone else, it's extra special when it's your own.
