Take a drive out to Kennedy Space Center, do the "lunch with an astronaut" and if you can time it to see a rocket launch then do it! My teenagers loved it!

Its our 30th wedding anniversary this month and we're taking the family over to Florida in August - daughter, grand-daughter & son-in-law from Oz and my son and daughter in law from the UK. We've been twice before the the kids were much younger and they all wanted to go again - especially the little one whose 4 and knows every Disney song going.

I've been lots and agree with the villa route, as you won't want to spend every day traipsing around the parks, you will be knackered. So it's a great idea to plan for a few days rest in-between where you can chill at the vila with a pool, whereas US hotels can be basic, so you have no option other than to go out.

We are off to Disneyland in September for 3 weeks and i am not exactly looking forward to it ( hate flying ) , but have to say i didn't realise how much of the hassle is for booking dinners , parks and whatnot have left it all for the 2 daughters to sort out ... And the cost ... F k me with a bargepole ..🙀🙀👀

I went there last year and it was great. We got the 5-day pass. It was only $20 more than the 4-day. Don't try to do more than one 'Kingdom' per day - you'll waste too much time travelling.
