There is far too much to do in Central Florida to accomplish in just one week. It was much easier when Disney World was just the Magic Kingdom or MK+EPCOT, as it was when I was a kid/in my teens/early 20s. (I actually had a pre-purchased commemorative "Opening" ticket for EPCOT for many years. ...I wonder what happened to that? Huh.) The last few times we made it to Orlando, we didn't have the time to do Universal, because our Disney expedition had ballooned to most of the week.
BTW, if you've been doing Disney, are you sick of the sight of smoked turkey legs yet? I have no idea why they are the single most prevalent fast food in all the parks...
I do agree on the "too much" thing -- between KSC, WDW, Universal, Sea World, and all the smaller attractions... whew.
I have reached a decision, though, that I'm going to avoid FL in future during summer. Just walking around Epcot for 5hrs or so today wiped me out completely. But I'm a Far North boy, I don't handle heat and humidity at all well. I actually wouldn't have done Orlando this time, except that:
1. The Project From Hell kept getting "one more week" last-ditch extensions... for a month. Which killed every other plan I'd made, which included a few SF conventions in various cities
2. KSC has the VAB open for a limited time (until Sept?) this year, and Atlantis is in the building being converted into a museum piece, so this is likely to be my one and only chance to get up close. Plus the VAB is probably going to be closed to the public again after this year, from the sound of it.
