Orlando's Latest Adventure

As home to Disney World, Sea World and Universal Studios, the city of Orlando, Florida, is the number-one vacation spot for American families. Now there's another reason to go there: Universal's new Islands of Adventure.

The theme park features Spider-Man, dinosaurs, Dr. Seuss and the Incredible Hulk. So, what kind of a theme is that? An adventurous one, says spokesman Tom Geraghty. "We allow visitors to live the adventure."

For the truly daring, there's "The Adventure of Spider-Man." It's the first ride ever to combine 3-D film, live-action and a roving car that moves five different ways. It can jerk side-to-side and spin a full 360 degrees!

Tempted to try it? Here's a hint: Skip the park's Seuss special--green eggs and ham--before you ride!
