We are planning an October trip to Orlando and we will only have 3 days to visit theme parks. (If school calendars come out and give us an extra day, we will add another, but at present, it doesn't look likely.) There will be a 6-year old boy, a 73-year old grandparent, and two parents. We are not Disney fanatics, and when shown about 20 or 30 Disney characters the 6-year old knew Mickey, "Mickey's girlfriend," "Donald the Duck," and Elsa. The only Disney movies our son has made it through are Cars 1-3, but he hasn't been as into the movies/toys lately (more into beyblades and Legos). He knows of Star Wars and has one SW Lego kit, but doesn't know any of the characters, etc. He's not into Toy Story or Disney Junior either. He knows of Nemo, and maybe Dory. Doesn't know Lion King.
I have heard that Flight of Passage is phenomenal. I do, however, sometimes get nauseous at IMAX 3-D shows, so I don't know how that will relate. The grandparent is unlikely to do many (if any) roller coasters. She's looking forward to seeing some of the shows and doing non-rollercoaster rides. The grandparent also has questioned whether Animal Kingdom is just a glorified zoo, but my sense is that it's really more of a theme park.
I've been thinking we would do Animal Kingdom for our second day, but now I'm second guessing myself. (Magic Kingdom will be one, and Universal will be another...my mom and I are big Harry Potter fans.) Anybody want to voice an opinion one way or the other?
