Since there is an "I'm going to Disneyland!" thread already, I thought it would be appropriate to start a Walt Disney World thread for those who plan to visit Central Florida.

As of today, I am making a last-minute vacation to visit Walt Disney World and other Central Florida attractions. So, I can now say those five magic words: "I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!"

Not including travel days, I will have eight whole days -- from Sunday, July 12 to Sunday, July 19 -- to visit Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and other area attractions.

Since this truly is a last-minute opportunity to go on vacation -- due to very fortunate work scheduling -- then I will simply be happy to enjoy all the offerings around Central Florida. Some other friends are also visiting Central Florida around the same time, so that helps as another motivational factor to visit the Sunshine State again.

Beside spending time at the four Walt Disney World parks, I have not definitively decided which other theme parks to possibly visit, although I am also considering Universal Studios Florida, Universal's Islands of Adventure, SeaWorld Orlando, or Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.

However, the "to do" list for a half-day park includes the historic Cypress Gardens, since I've never visited the place before and at least would like to see its famous ski show at least once. Cypress Gardens had closed, but is open yet again under new management, which eliminated its carnival rides, roller coasters and zoo area.

Also, timing is right to visit Kennedy Space Center on Thursday, July 16 when Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is holding events to celebrate the Apollo 40th Anniversary and man's first steps on the moon.

In any case, with apologies for the very late notice, if any East Coast or Florida residents of LoT would like to meet up at any point between Sunday, July 12 to Sunday, July 19, send me a PM here on LoT and maybe we can get together at one of the Central Florida theme parks or somewhere else nearby. If not, don't worry about it, and I plan to post some photos and reports here during the trip.
