I'm going to Florda...What's there to do?

Mister C

Alright, I'm gonna be going to Florida from May 28 to June 1. What's there to do there? The people I'm going with have already decided that we're going to Universal, but what else?

I guess that all depends if you have transportation or if you'll have someone drive you around, is it with family or a group?. If you don't want to do all the tourist stuff, just have them leave you at the cable park all day.

Well im going with my friend and his dad. I was invited and all i have to pay for is the airfare. We get $500 spending cash from the company. The dad is at meetings until 12 noon, and then we can do whatever we want. We're gonna go to Universal on Friday, and then Saturday we still dont know what we're doing yet.

Have you been to Universal in Burbank?? I don't know how much different if would be here in Orlando.
Hit OWC on Sunday instead of Saturday. Usually it's not as busy, especially if you are there when it opens.

the hilton, that wont help, lol, there are so many up in orlando....definitly check out OWC, like said before, and Islands of Adventure is a must of Orlando, its great....there is a bunch of tourist stuff up in orlando, just surf the net, and search engines, and you will be able to find aLOT of stuff, and like in the hotal, they will probably have a bunch of brocures (sp?) of attractions....good luck, have fun

Nothing to do here, you don't wanna come here. Florida is closed to tourists and snow birds from May through October. Just Kidding. If staying in Orlando, you can go to OWC, universal is cool, I love SeaWorld too. There is a ton of crap in Orlando. If you come down here (Palm Beach) I'll drag you around the lake.

Go to OWC and stay all day... tons of fun!!

Mister C · Posted: May 12, 2003 5:47 pm Post subject:

I wish i could. It's gonna take a lot of convincing to let my friend take me to OWC. Hes a lazy bum, and all he cars about is hockey and eating.

Has he ever wakeboarded before? If he hasn't, you have to convince him to take you. 1. You'll get to wakeboard 2. He'll get to learn how to wakeboard If he already knows how to, disregard this post.

ah i guess its andrew then. i think OWC might be a little advanced for you. i could be wrong tho ive never ridden ther before. and thered probly be a good amount of people there that you could chow off your "skills" in front of. go to the find a pull forum and see how many people have a place near orlando. im sure you could talk him into it. (can i come i could probably pack my self in a suitcase or hide in the landing gear. Laughing

That's the beauty of it all @ OWC...... it doesn't matter what level you are.
The cable guys are great and extremely helpful. Lots of other riders there that will give you a few pointers too.
You just never know who will show up or run into at OWC Very Happy
