I am hoping to be in Orlando, the end of the first week in October.

I live in the Northwest and this will be, unfortunately, a very brief visit. Three nights and 2 full days, only.

I know our plans include hitting at least one of the Disney parks.

I've also heard that The Ice Bar and Margaritaville are fun places to at least check out, how about the Premium Outlet Mall, how good is that?

I'll be staying at the Hilton Hotel on Destination Parkway. How close is that, to some of these things?

I cant imagine getting to Florida again, anytime in the near future, so, what would be your suggestions for such a short visit (alas, no chance to stretch it out), what's not to miss, and what's not worth the time?

Also,what can I expect weatherwise at that time of the year?

And finally, the Orlando Airport. Ive heard its very nice, but large and very, very busy. My departing flight, Sunday morning, is at 9:30. Is getting there a couple hours early going to be enough, or do I need to allow even more time?

Thanks for any and all advice; never been to your part of the country and I'm looking forward to it!
