During your Orlando vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Peabody Ducks
One of the best shows in town is short but sweet, and, more importantly, free. The Peabody Orlando's five mallards march into the lobby each morning, accompanied by John Philip Sousa's "King Cotton March" and their own red-coated duck master. They get to spend the day splashing in a marble fountain. Then, in the afternoon, they march back to the elevator and up to their 4th-floor "penthouse." Donald Duck never had it this good. Allow 1 hour.
Orlando Science Center
The four-story center, the largest of its kind in the Southeast, provides 10 exhibit halls that allow visitors to explore everything from Florida swamps to the arid plains of Mars to the human body. One of the big attractions is the Dr. Phillips CineDome, a 310-seat theater that presents large-format films, planetarium shows, and laser-light extravaganzas. In KidsTown, little folks wander in exhibits representing a miniature version of the big world around them. In one section, there's a pint-size community that includes a construction site, park, and wellness center. Science City, located nearby, includes physics lessons and a power plant, and 123 Math Avenue uses puzzles and other things to make learning math fun. Allow 3 to 4 hours, more if you have an inquiring mind.
Ripley's Believe It or Not! Odditorium
Do you crave weird science? If you're a fan of the bizarre, here's where you'll find lots of oddities. Among the hundreds of exhibits: a two-headed kitten, a five-legged cow, a three-quarter-scale model of a 1907 Rolls-Royce made of 1 million matchsticks, a mosaic of the Mona Lisa created from toast, torture devices from the Spanish Inquisition, a Tibetan flute made of human bones, and Ubangi women with wooden plates in their lips. There are exhibits on Houdini and films of people swallowing coat hangers. Visitors are greeted by a hologram of Robert Ripley. Allow 2 hours.
Radisson Barcelo Hotel
Like many I-Drive properties, the Radisson offers a good location for people whose vacations center on Universal Orlando or SeaWorld, and a central location for travelers who plan to visit Disney and downtown, too. Rooms are brightly decorated (the Deluxe towers rooms are larger and worth the extra dough) and have refrigerators, but views are basic. Otherwise, you'll be watching traffic on I-4 or I-Drive. As a plus, kids 10 and under eat free with a paying adult at breakfast.
Staybridge Suites
Like its Lake Buena Vista cousin, this hotel is friendly, well run, and neat as a pin. Price and spacious one- and two-bedroom suites (the latter 550 sq. ft., with beds for eight) are two of its biggest pluses. The hotel attracts both leisure and business travelers. Courtyard rooms have balconies. The property is across the street from the Mercado shopping village and its restaurants, and just up the road from Pointe Orlando and its offerings. A free expanded continental breakfast is included daily.
Royal Pacific Resort
The third of Universal Orlando's three resorts has an open-air courtyard with an exquisite orchid garden, palm trees, waterfalls, and lagoons, including one in which a float plane with a 90-foot wingspan is docked (the scene reminds more than a few people of Gilligan's Island). The Royal Pacific doesn't quite succeed at creating a Polynesian paradise (you can hear the screams of riders on the Hulk Coaster from the pool area), but it's definitely the best Universal resort in the theme department.The rooms, though smaller than those at other Universal resorts, are attractively decorated with lovely wood accents and carvings; they are far better than those at comparable Disney resorts. And the lagoon pool area -- the largest in Orlando -- is lovely. The big plus: Guests get no-line access to almost every ride at Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, and seating privileges for shows and restaurants. The big minuses: The self-parking lot ($6) is a very long hike from the hotel, and I've heard several complaints in specific reference to this hotel about run-ins with barking dogs (Loews hotels are pet-friendly).Facilities: 5 restaurants; 3 lounges; outdoor heated pool; kids' pool; cabanas; putting green; shuffleboard; volleyball; Jacuzzi; sauna; recreational activities; play area; supervised children's center; arcade; concierge; free water-taxi transportation to Universal parks; free shuttle to SeaWorld; transportation for a fee to WDW parks; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; valet.
