Wonderworks

I had never done Wonderworks before and thought it was about time. We bought groupons to go of course we refuse to pay full price for anything in Orlando. I think with my history of being a 4th generation Floridian and my mom and uncles as well as myself growing up in Kissimmee, everything should be free. But that is a different story.

We went to Wonderworks and we happened to run into the Moody family there, we seem to run into them all the time, and it was just funny that we would run into them in Orlando since we both live in Jacksonville.

Of course we have little patience for lines and so we did not do every activity there at Wonderworks. I was honestly surprised at how much there was to do there. We were told that it takes about 2 hours to complete, it took us 4 hours. Of course we were in line for about 45 minutes to do the ropes course, 20 minutes to do the 4D adventure, and 15 minutes for the lazer tag. We didn't even bother waiting to do the make and rider your own rollercoaster, Omar said those are boring. So we waited for about an hour and 20 minutes to do stuff.

The ropes course was fun, I just wish there weren't so many little kids on it, they were so scared and would hold everything up. With so many people up there it made it impossible to get around people. The lazer tag was fun, but there was no where to hide so it made it sort of impossible as well. The 4D ride was okay, but made me feel a little sick to my stomach which was odd for me.

The one thing that we should have done is bought a soda there. I was so thirsty and we found out from others that you can buy this large soda cup for like $3 and get free refills. Ah well.

Still we had a good time and there would be other things we could go back to if we ever go there again. I am sure when we have kids they would enjoy it. It reminded me of a mix between Epcot's Innoventions and The Orlando Science Center.
