Off the Beaten Path in Orlando! by Tim Barnes

Orlando is the "Fun Capital of America". With theme parks and attractions on top of attractions, sometimes really cool experiences get missed. To make sure you get the full capacity of your vacation, these are a few possibilities for people who want to combine learning with their entertainment.

WonderWorks:

Touted as a laboratory once operating in the Bermuda Triangle but relocated to Orlando via tornado, even the external appearance lets you know that this place is different. WonderWorks is a building flipped upside down. A host to over 100 Interactive Exhibits, WonderWorks is a one-of-a-kind experience. You can virtually land the space shuttle, fly a jet or go on a combat mission in the desert. Shake it up in the earthquake simulator or immerse yourself in gigantic bubbles. Lie on a bed of nails or design a roller coaster and take it for a virtual ride. WonderWorks is a truly original offering from Orlando's attractions.

Ripley's Believe It or Not!

This Odditorium centrally located in the Orlando area also makes an impression from the outset. Seemingly sinking into one of Florida's sinkholes, Ripley's Museum is a true gem. Robert Ripley was an explorer that lived an amazing life and considered the real-life Indiana Jones. The artifacts and oddities from his travels around the world are located here with incredible details of Ripley's journeys. Come see a Rolls Royce made from matchsticks or actual shrunken heads. Ripley's Believe It or Not! is a unique experience that will not be forgotten.

Titanic the Experience:

If you are a history buff or a Titanic enthusiast this is the whole package. This theme museum has full-scale recreations of the Titanic's most famous sites. Tours are given by the colorful characters that actually took the voyage. Meet Captain Smith or the Unsinkable Molly Brown and a host of others. There are models from the past and present of the famous ship and over 200 artifacts from the ship and memorabilia from the James Cameron film, "Titanic". Enjoy 20,000 square feet of history and trivia. Experience this phenomena and tragedy like you've never seen or read before.
