Located in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, Animal Kingdom is the fourth and newest theme park. This park is filled with all kinds of wonderful attractions and rides. Look closely at the Tree of Life and take in all the details. Some favorites- Expedition Everest, Lion King Show and the Safari Ride! The animals are fascinating as well.

This is a totally awesome experience!!! It's been a few
years but we brought the kids when they were young.
Everyone is dressed up as kings and queens and you
get to eat on metal plates with silver spoons! They
serve course after course of meals...so don't eat ahead
of time. There is a show put on that everyone who
likes to dance can participate in. My girls did!!! It
is very expensive but well worth every cent for the
show and all the food!!!!

I know there's a lot to see and do at Epcot Center, but my absolute favourite place in the park is the World Showcase. Where else can you enjoy food, beer, and culture from so many countries for less than a plane ticket to *one* of those destinations?
The China "exhibit" is always cool -- they get kids from the acrobatic team to perform stunts that is always entertaining. Japan has the taiko drums.
Every country has some kind of exhibit to learn more about the history of the country and a lot of them some kind of interactive exhibit like a ride or something. I think all of them also have a kid craft that if your kids do them all they can get a pin or something at guest services. I don't have kids, so I'm not positive, but I see the kids walking around with the crafts.
Every year in the fall they also host the International Food and Wine Festival. This year it's held from October 2, 2006 to November 12, 2006.

This is a great place for kids. They have hands on demos and the kids always have a blast while learning. Buy a year membership so you can keep going back.

Throughout the years I have been to all the theme parks offered by Disney
World except MGM. So this was our choice for May 2,2006. We left early
so as to beat the heat of the day and ended up having to wait for it to open.
Although we were at the head of the line it didn't take long for zillions of people
to come out of nowhere. Once inside, everyone diverted in different directions.
My hubby got such a kick out of a San Franciso Back Board which appeared
surprizingly real from a distance. Of course I had the camera on constantly.
We toured the land of America lot before deciding to go on The Great Movie
Ride. In that area He noticed a stage for "Who Wants to Be A Millionaire"
and being that that is his favorite show we made sure we got in there also.
Its so neat because anyone can end up in the hot seat and you play for
prizes, not money but you can win a disney cruise for up to 4 people. We
went in the game show more than once. I wanted to see the Aerosmith
roller coaster ride, not go on it but view it. Yes, I was scared (LOL). We had
a chance to see just about everything and its not that big of a theme park.
By 2 pm the sun drove us to leave but we have plentiful good memories of
this visit!!!

This is such a fun and cute golf course. There are two sides to this Disney Course, Winter and Summer. Both are very fun, although I find the Winter course to be slightly easier. The prices are a little expensive, but I believe you get a Florida Resident discount with a valid drivers license.

I am not a fan in swimming in water parks but I have to say that it was very clean.. Went down a few slides which were awesome...of course you reach the bottm with a wedgie but that is the way it goes...lol.. They have lockers so you don't have to worry about hauling around your stuff. I prefered floating around the river on a tube all day long...met people from all around the world. It was great. The food wasn't that pricey. I had a few strawberry smoothies and enjoyed watching all the families having a wonderful time together as I got a tan on the beach... Don't forget the wave pool...they have plenty of lifeguards throughout the park so no need to worry. Try to go during the week for less lines...but that is a given. :)
PS..Don't forget the sunscreen and towel..

I was a bit apprensive about paying nearly $600 for my husband and I to go to Discovery Cove on a recent vacation, but it was totally worth it! The dolphin swimming experience was shorter than desired, but we got to touch them, ride along with them, kiss them, and watch them do tricks. You can not take photos, but they have professional photographers who take them for you to purchase.
The snorkeling area was incredible as well, a great experience. There is also a heated swimming area, a lazy river area, and an aviary to feed the birds.
I loved the beautiful white sand "beach" area. It was so nice to just relax and lay back in a hammock and enjoy the nice Florida weather.
The food was great too - continental breakfast, lunch, and drinks and snacks all day long are included which was a big plus.
I would only recommend it if you are a very good swimmer, however. Many of the areas were 8-15+ feet deep. They do have life jackets to wear, but it can still be a little nerve racking!

It's not just a theme park to me. Its what I like to call my second home. I've been visiting Universal Studios since the days it's been open. I've invested $1000s of dollars into this company by now and I've always had a annual pass to go there. Of course, over the years the cost of going has gone up like everything else but its still worth going. There's always something to do there and the workers there are always great and will always help you out. The food is great, not like other them parks that serve you garbage. There food is actually a descent portion size and still taste good. I will continue going to this park and supporting there business. I can’t wait until they expand more, so I have more to do there.

It's no surprise that when Disney created Typhoon Lagoon, they knew what they were doing. This tropically-themed water park has everything from a huge wave pool and sandy beach to a tropical reef where you can snorkel with the fish. Admission isn't cheap, but it's a full day of entertainment. My suggestion is- bring as little as you can. Leave important stuff at the hotel safe, including jewelry and stuff. The waves will suck your valuables away faster than you can say "undertow." Also, get there early if you want a chair. This place packs them in, so be warned that you'll be waiting awhile to swoosh down the slides.
