I find it amusing how this thread has turned into an amusement park discussion... oh, the perils of an Orlando nationals.
Also, tip: the butterbeer at the Harry Potter theme park is ridiculously sweet. As in, you need a bottle of water to drink with it because it's overwhelming.

Coney Island? I think you are off by a couple states there. Regardless... next year you should plan on the one and only US Air Force Museum, which is right next to the campus and is absolutely amazing.fishman100 wrote:Just wait until next year, when it's held in Ohio.
