  6. Walt Disney World vs. Disneyland -- A Disney throw down

    Which U.S. Disney park reigns supreme? Loyal Walt Disney World fans balk at the idea of deigning to visit the, in their minds, inferior Disneyland. Meanwhile those loyal to the original Disney park may visit Florida's Disney World for its additional offerings of Disney's Hollywood Studios, Disney's Animal Kingdom, and Epcot, but they argue Disneyland and its neighboring California Adventure Park are far superior. Disney World is bigger than Disneyland by two theme parks and two water parks. But does the opening of Cars Land and other recent additions in Anaheim change things? It's time for a Disney throw down!

  8. Kennedy Space Center tours go behind the 'gee whiz'

    TITUSVILLE, Fla. - The Vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center is huge and homely and almost 50 years old. It's tall enough to house a 363-foot Saturn V rocket, wide and deep enough to dwarf a space shuttle, cavernous enough for its powerful cranes to maneuver the orbiter and its external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters into place on a mobile launch platform. By volume - 129 million cubic feet of space - it is the fourth largest building in the world: 525 feet tall, 716 feet long and 518 feet wide.

  9. Touring the Biltmore, on horseback and foot

    ASHEVILLE, N.C. - From the back, the Biltmore House appears sleeker and taller than it does from the front. Built into a hillside, the back side is six stories tall, rising majestically from its stone facing to its French Gothic spires, while the front is four stories and boxy.

  12. Florida Cruise Homeport Spotlight: Port Canaveral

    Established in 1953, this deep-water port on the Atlantic coast of Central Florida, less than an hour's drive from Orlando (about 54 miles from Orlando International Airport), offers a variety of cruises to the Bahamas and the Caribbean including three-, four- five- and seven-day itineraries. Primarily a turnaround facility (as opposed to a port of call), Port Canaveral serves as homeport for ships from such lines as Carnival, Disney (no surprise there, given the port's proximity to Walt Disney World) and Royal Caribbean. And the port is apparently confident of its future: In fall of 2010, Port Canaveral inked $42 million financing for expansion, including a new cruise terminal scheduled to open in summer of 2012 and slated to be added to its six existing ones.
