We will have an entire week in February, Sat to Sat. I was hoping it might be warm enough to swim as last year that week was in the 80's, but temps are averaging almost 10 degree cooler this year if you compare dates, so it looks like swimming probably won't be happening.
I know we don't need a full 6 days in the off season. We may do mini golf or the escape room or both, I'm not sure.
I was also thinking of maybe doing AK one day or SW. MK has a crowd level of 2 on one of our days which just seems unreal, but I'm going with my oldest who doesn't care for MK, and also I'm not sure I am up for all the planning that MK would entail. We prefer a more relaxed trip hence our defection to the dark side years ago. Still, I thought it might be fun to do one day at Disney since it has been so long since we have been and crowds are forecasted to be so low.
I just can't decide, usually we mix in a number of low cost or free trips in the area like visiting Winter Garden or taking a walk in the orange groves, or we do day trips to other places. This trip, however, is the first trip in over 10 years where we won't have a car, and I don't plan on renting one. I'm thinking rather than a bunch of smaller activities, it would be easier to Uber somewhere early morning and stay all day. Disney seemed a good option as we could add in Disney Springs for dinner which I haven't visited in years, but it is just so expensive.
Any ideas? Advice?
Maybe there are some fun new places in the area that have opened in the last few years? It's so hard to search on TripAdvisor as all the entries are flooded referencing individual attractions in big parks.
Maybe something inside with heat? That might end up being appreciated if it is in the 60s like some of the forecasts are predicting.
I wanted to reach out to the Universal side of things on here because Universal is a different kind of touring, so that's more what we are looking for, not a marathon.
Thanks
