Megan, I have to say, I would not consider myself a How to Train Your Dragon fan. In fact, I only just watched the movie a few weeks ago in preparation for this assignment. But Isle of Berk, which is where that movie is set, is easily the best world in this whole park. It's also the biggest of worlds. It has an amazing water feature in the center, so it really feels complete.

Yes. This world also felt like the most complete array of rides. There is a coaster. It's a family coaster. I would not call this a kid's coaster. It's called Hiccup's Wing Gliders. Really impressive animatronics. Cool backwards segment, so it's got some thrill action in there. And then, Megan, my favorite ride was actually called Dragon Racer's Rally.

I don't know if I could recommend it to you if you have a fear of heights, but it's super smooth. It takes you up around in the air. You can rotate around, feel like you're riding a dragon. Also a water ride called Fire Drill. That's F-Y-R-E. Not something too exciting, but probably nice on a 95-degree Orlando day. Basically, you just blast a bunch of water at each other.

Yes. Besides the costumes, the puppetry is amazing. That is the show called Untrainable Dragon. It is so much more than an air conditioning and seat break. It's genuinely well done. Even if you haven't seen the movie, I recommend it. It's really sweet.
