Thanks guys, how about good restaurants?
I'm going to be there 2 weeks with my seven year old daughter and her mom. I'm hoping to have a few days free from them though lol, no wheels unless I rent a car.
I posted this one earlier. We liked it so much the first year that we went, we went back 3 times the next year that we went.
Try the Big Fin restaurant in Orlando, they have great seafood! Worth the money.

There's also a Hard Rock at Universal that's open past 10 PM and they sell a bunch of sports jerseys there especially basketball ones.
Universal also has other restaurants that are open late after the park closes.
You will need to rent a car to get to Kennedy space center (approx 45 min - 1 hour drive), Coacoa beach is also another 45 minute drive. (Both have like $10 in tolls to get there - or make both in one day as they are not that far from each other). If you drive to Universal, then you can hang out as long as you like.
You will also need a car to get to the Garlits museum. 45 min in the other direction. I kept saying on the next trip, and didn't get there. Got in too big of a hurry to get back home to catch it on my return trips both times. But regret not getting there. The second trip, on the day we left, they got some rain, and 7 accidents on the freeways, had some closed down for a couple of hours (?). People drive better up here in the snow... So we had to wait 3 hours for the freeway to clear before we left. Next time....
