  • Me and 3 mates (all mid 20s) have a spare day in Orlando in March, what's the best theme park for a one day visit?

    I would say Bush Gardens is a great park just for the day

    Some great coasters, you will need a car to get over though its around an hour from Orlando

    According to google maps its 84 miles from Orlando to Busch Gardens!

    Answering maemaesmummy. Sorry cant grab quotes on phone. Crowds not too bad at mo except for new fantasyland. Cant get my head round the fact people get to the park, ride aerial then stand in line for lunch for a few hours, though i have heard that the grey stuff is indeed delicious...
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Something else I should mention as I know a few DVC members post here. Apparently we are all going to be auto-enrolled to the lowest level membership to D23. That should be fun.
