The only "ride" if you will, that we walked right up to was the haunted mansion. Everything else was (at the least) an hour wait. Hotter than hell and humid as the rain forest.
Didn't bother me a great deal - I had went to SERE school at Eglin - but the kids and my Wife were dying - spent a small fortune on water, slushies, and other drinks staying hydrated.
Never again.....never again

June/July is when most people take their vacations. Its not actually the hottest part of the year. It "feels" like it is a sauna because of the humidity. Here in St. Pete we have the ocean breeze, pools and the beach to cool down if we are outside. Orlando was a stagnant swamp in the 50's. Disney and others drained the swamps but the weather that created them still exists.
Jan and Feb are the best months to visit. Low 70's temps and cool into the low 60's after sunset.
When I was in KC, we went to Disney in late July 2005, spent 4 days there one day at each part of the park. Spent 4 days at Universal. 1 day at Sea World. I think I lose 20 lbs just from sweating.
