Orlando, located in the Sunshine State

After finish working in McD, we left the town that we stayed for 3 months, Falmouth and heading towards our 1st destination, Orlando.

Journey begin

Orlando is a city located in Florida state. Florida state is also known as the sunshine state as it is always warm throughout the year. Orlando is famous for having lots of theme parks. I get to know this place through my friends as they get to work here in the same program in a park that I would be mentioned later.

We reach Orlando at night and we check in into an inn in Kissimmee (yeah, spells like "kiss me"). The place we stayed is called Knights Inn. It is around 30bucks per night per room which is a great deal. However, it is located very far from most of the theme parks and we spent quite a lot on cabs. Although free shuttle (is singular, it only provide once a day!!) is provided, we were not able to catch it most of the time.

Knights Inn

The first day (21 Feb 2010), we made some mistakes on the shuttle and we ended up heading to our 1st theme park, Islander Adventure. Out of all, I like this park the most as the roller coasters are nice and followed to there themes.

Islander Adventure

This is one of the street and guess you will like it if you are a Marvel heroes fan.

Example of a street

The 5 themes in the park are as followed:

Each of it is so fun and the buildings are so beautiful. Never see such theme park in Malaysia

That's why i said:

The second theme park that we went is Seaworld (22 Feb 2010).

Seaworld

This park has less thrill rides but you have a lot of animal shows to watch. You have

Rats, cats and dogs

Seals and Walrus

and of course, the Shamu show

We were lucky in some sence that this show was stopped 1 or 2 days after we went as there was incident regarding a killing whale killed a trainer.

The third park we went is Busch Garden (23 Feb 2010).

Busch Garden

It has marvelous rides

totally wet!!

90 degree (almost like free fall) rollar coaster

and delicious turkey legI don't really like it cause is too meaty for me. Nothing wrong with the taste

and lots of African wild animals.

And last (24 Feb 2010), Universal Studio (Singapore has a new one though).

Universal Studio

Most rides are based on famous movies. Not much roller coasters but quite a lot of 4D rides.

This is a cool one. It let you select songs that you like while having your ride

MIB rides. Riding on cart and shoot aliens

This is the coolest 4D ride that I ever had

Shrek 4D. Funny!!

Four days of trips, we covered four theme park. I would probably go to Florida again, especially Orlando as I missed the Disney World there (is disneyworld, not disneyland. So, you should have guess how big it is in Orlando with 7 theme parks. One park per day can let you play the whole week). Besides, Miami beach which is underneath Florida is a nice place, I think...
