  Take a drive up and down International Drive in Orlando, Fl if ever there. Tourist traps as far as the eye can see!

  We went a little over a month ago. I wouldn't say it was worth the money, but I wouldn't say it's a rip off. The boys had fun...that's all that matters. I thought the 3D theater with the real weather effects made the entire thing worth it.

  4D, and yes, that part was pretty cool. But even just going by the brochure it was a bit of a rip-off. My 4 yo daughter was looking forward to "Princess Palace". It was literally a lego table about 4ft x 4ft with pink and purple legos in the middle of the damn cafeteria. She didn't stop at it.

  Our vacation was to Panama city Beach and knew the stuff would be like that, the rest of it was just stops we made of stuff we knew to and from Florida.
  
  Also forgot to mention, we stopped by Ft Benning on the way back as well, seemed less scary this time. wanted to go to the National Infantry Museum but they closed like at 5 I think.
  
  Lookout mountain and ruby falls area was the biggest ripoff...we simply said screw it and didnt pay and walked around and left.

  Hey Webbie Ann Arbor on Nov 26 will be the biggest rip-off on the planet if they actually charge money to walk inside the Big Outhouse to see a football game.

  Anywhere there's something 'big' to see, there's going to be tourist traps. Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge Tennessee is one of the worst. Niagara Falls has huge tourist traps near it. West Yellowstone (not as bad, because it's miles from nothing).
