Come on, don't dump on Disney. It's great. I've done the character breakfast though and hated it. Too noisy and food was bah. Then again, what did I expect anyway?
Whenever I go to Orlando, I make sure to never miss the following:
Universal Islands of Adventure:
- Duelling Dragons (dual sick coasters)
- Spiderman
- Ripsaw Falls
- Jurassic Park (Weakest of the rides, but still fun)
- Dr. Doom's Fearfall (the build-up is insane)
- HULK (fucking insane coaster holy shit wow)
(I haven't seen the new Harry Potter attraction yet)
Universal Studios:
- Back to the Future (now remade into the Simpsons Ride, sigh)
- Terminator 2 3D (old now but still impressive)
- Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit (New roller coaster - good!)
- Revenge of the Mummy (Another coaster - also great)
I skip all the shows and boring rides. If I have the chance to hit Disney I'll usually skip Disney World and go to Epcot. It's a little slow but some attracts such as SPACE make it worth while.
The best bar ever, Mannequins, a part of Downtown Disney, closed 2 years ago along with 5 other bars in the area. The plan was to turn them all into new shops. When I went there a few months ago it was a sad and depressing place. They closed the best places, and never followed through on their plans. It used to cost $20 to get in and it was jam-packed every night. They lost a cash cow when they fucked up that club complex.
