Looking For Things To Do in Orlando?

After living in Orlando for the last 13 years I sometimes find it difficult to find new things to do around the Orlando area. I came across a great resource on the International Drive website that details 50 Things To Do on International Drive. Beside the old standby of going to Sea World or Discovery Cove they provide several smaller venues to try out. Like Ripley's Believe It or Not, WonderWorks or the go-cart track at Magical Midway. The list is a nice resource if you find your self asking, "What should we do this weekend?". As a bonus the site even offers special coupons for some of these attractions.
