Chapters 2 through 6 cover the major Orlando area attractions, ones that will occupy anywhere from a half a day to several days of your time. I have attempted to cover them in some depth. Chapters 7 and 8 cover Kennedy Space Center to the east and Busch Gardens Africa to the west. These, too, are major attractions.
The remaining chapters are omnibus chapters; that is, they cover a number of attractions that all have a common theme. The attractions described in these chapters are scattered throughout the Orlando area. At the end of the book, there is an index of rides and attractions, that will be most useful in locating the smaller attractions covered in Chapters 10 through 18. It can also be used to locate descriptions of specific attractions at the major parks.
As a general rule, I have tried to restrict the geographic scope of this book to Orlando and its immediate environs while recognizing that there are major attractions farther afield that deserve attention. That means that the farther you drive from Orlando, the more likely you will be to encounter attractions not covered in this book. For example, I have not mentioned the many things to see and do in the Tampa Bay area aside from Busch Gardens and Adventure Island, its next-door water park. Likewise, I have limited my coverage of Daytona Beach and the “Space Coast” to a few major attractions.
