Looks pretty good. As you have no kids, maybe you would get more out of a second day at Epcot, rather than MK, or maybe splend 1/2 the 2nd MK day at Epcot ? as I think it would definately need more than 1 day. Also, I would be tempted to move Blizzard beach further forward in your hoilday- unless you're not keen on water parks ? it would be a shame to find you love it & would like to visit again, but have no time :) are you staying on site ? if so, don't forget about the extra magic hours :) !

If you have no kids I personally wouldnt go to MK twice, We dont have children and MK is always the first park we drop in favour of other things. Its main attraction to us is the evening firework show.
Instead I would definitely recommend using that day for a trip to Busch Gardens. Its excellent but often missed by people just because its a little further away (about 75 minutes)
It depends what you like but if you are into exciting rides and attractions coupled with great animal encounters then Busch is second to none, its got no less than four of the best rides in Florida.

Hmm see my previous post but substitute Magic Kingdom with EPCOT:d:

In seven visits to Orlando we have almost never done more than one day at a particular park, As long as you get up earlyish and its not too busy then one day can be enough, it might be different in school hols which we avoid like the plague:grin:

Just wanted to wish you a great holiday, you do realise you will want to go back again & again & again.......

[steve M]

Why thank you missmouse that is very nice off you, I do think this is the start of something addictive.:thumbs-up

this one is in Lakeland about 35 mins drive south , check out my other posting called "drive-in movies" .

they play current films and also sometimes some retro stuff.

they have swings and slides etcetc below the screen which the kids can go on till dusk. I grew up doing these in Canada, and my wife wants to experience them.

I saw Jaws, Towering Inferno,all the Airport movies, earthquake, etc about a dozen clint films and just about everything else that came out in the 70's in the drive ins. lustfull kids next to you in another car is better than a gimp on a mobile next to you in the cinema.
