Raining in orlando ...what to do ?

[wanye]

mall followed by a cinema trip is what we usually do

[Armanaleg]

Poncho and parks - queues will be short. At least the rain over there is warm!

Grab your poncho and go Hollywood Studios. Everything is undercover.
Best park to be at when it rains IMHO

We normally still go to a park, we just keep a towel and change of clothes and shoes in the car, just in case we get soaked to the skin... this has happened on a few occasions but has never stopped us enjoying ourselves. After all its just warm water

Bars!

Go to the water parks. Rides become faster and the rides are empty.
Getting wet is the idea anyway. Or you could just sing.

I love doing theme parks in the rain (even heavy rain) as they are empty!

I was thinking the same! HS is perfect on a rainy day

We go to MK when it rains as the queues are short. There are a lot of wet rides that we go on in Orlando so rain does not bother us, we are used to being wet. Downtown Disney is always slammed when it rains as everyone has the same idea - Disneyquest or cinema. One word of warning as well, if it has rained a lot for two days running MK is always incredibly busy the next dry day as everyone has been put off going there and so everyone goes on the same day.

It depends on the type of rain. When we went last time (July / August) we found most of the rides in the water parks closed due to 'inclement weather' - Think it was with them being high up and the risk of being struck by lightening.

Same happened when we went to Busch Gardens. Had to sit it out in the complementary bar
