Florida Family Vacations is my blog about travel in and around Orlando Florida. It's about the theme parks - Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World and all the smaller places of interest too. It's about traveling with families and saving money! These are the notes I use to put in my travel book "The Mom's Miserly Guide:Disney, Universal, Sea World on $25 a Day!"

Sea World Shows


The Most Miserly Mom visited Sea World last week and I must say I do have to comment on the changes in the shows at Sea World.


Let me first mention that my "fun card" to Sea World was $69 and I can visit all year long for that price -- so The Most Miserly Mom is very happy about that.


Now, on to the shows. The Dolphin and Whale show was truly interesting -- the performers combine acrobatics and costumes and music with the antics of the dolphins and whales. Exotic birds fly through the air as well. It is almost a combination of Sea & Circus. I really enjoyed this show.


The Shamu show "Believe," was actually a bit hokey even for this Miserly Mom. While I enjoyed Shamu's tricks, as always, the show was a bit too "emotional" if you will -- I wanted more Shamu - less talking from trainers. But that's just me.

Sea World Orlando Discounts and Deals


The Most Miserly Mom visited Sea World yesterday and I got the guts to ride Kraken! Yes, I did! And I must say that is was an awesome experience.


Sea World touts Kraken as Orlando's only "floorless" roller coaster, and that is very true. As the ride starts the floor actually drops out from under you and you begin to soar around the park - looping and swooping, all the while screaming (if you are The Most Miserly Mom of course) and your adrenaline picks up amazingly.


I highly recommend the ride - it was a blast!


The rate for my "Fun Pass" was $69 - and that will give me admission all year long. That's a great deal in this Miserly Mom's opinion.
