the two of us...

My husband and I are leaving for Orlando the end of Oct. I have never been to any of the parks, my husband was there many years ago. we are in our 60%26#39;s and 70%26#39;s, fairly active and really looking forward to the trip. I don%26#39;t care about Mickey but I do want to go to Epcot, do you think we need two days? And then we thought, animal kingdom, sea world and what else? We don%26#39;t like rides (probably would kill us!) We are staying fairly close by and will be there for a week, but we don%26#39;t need to spend all the time in parks. And how much are these tickets? Any help will be appreciated...

Sea World definitely - laser show at closing is amazing. Also might want to take in a Cirque du Soleil show.

the two of us...

Epcot

Sea World (you can get 2nd day free)

Cypress Gardens sounds like something you%26#39;d like

a day at winter park, have lunch on park avenue and take the winter park scenic boat tour

Gatorland maybe

Spend an evening at Disney%26#39;s Boardwalk

Boggy Creek Air Boat Ride

Kennedy Space Center

I would say MK for sure. For Disney tickets check undercovertourist.com

mapleleaftickets.com

Or if you are a member of AAA you can buy discounted tickets from them.

For Seaworld the best deals are normaly on their website.

If you are going in October and not doing many rides, one day per theme park will be sufficient to get you to all the attractions you would prefer, even at Epcot.

However, you should definitely try Soarin at Epcot as this ride is for anyone. I think you%26#39;ll love it.

If you want to do Epcot and Animal Kingdom, you%26#39;ll need a 2-day base Magic Your Way ticket from Disney which will get you one day at each of those parks. A 2-day ticket for Disney parks will run you between $150 and $160 each.

You won%26#39;t get much of a discount only buying a 2-day ticket, but check prices at these two sites to see what you can get:

SeaWorld can also be done in one day, but they won%26#39;t have any %26#39;nighttime%26#39; shows in October (relegated only to the summer months). Check into their ';Be A Kid Again'; offer on tickets there.

I second Kat%26#39;s suggestion of riding Soarin%26#39; - I don%26#39;t care how old you are, you should love it! I also think you should do some of the other rides at Epcot. I would not suggest this if I were not almost positive you would enjoy them; I am not a big rider, myself, but I love some of Epcot%26#39;s rides. Try Spaceship Earth (the big ball) as soon as you enter the park; if you like it, go for Soarin%26#39; and some others. I suggest the rides in: The Seas, The Land, Imagination, Mexico, and Universe of Energy.

Really, these rides are so very gentle; no ';thrill ride'; aspect to them at all; in fact, they merely keep you from walking while taking you on a tour of various exhibits. (The only even slightly difficult thing would be boarding and exiting the boat rides - The Land and Mexico - but I%26#39;ve actually never seen anyone having difficulty with that.) Soarin%26#39; is absolutely the most ';thrilling'; one of all these, but it, too, is very gentle, and I believe you will handle it well. I would have no qualms at all about taking my 75-year old parents on it.
