Toon Lagoon
Islands of Adventure Toon Lagoon
Toon Lagoon isn’t just a fun name for the ‘island’. It is a very detailed description about how soaked you will get on Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls and Popeye & Bluto’s Bilge-Rat Barges, two of the best water rides in Orlando. Kids will love running around Me Ship, The Olive and the dining options are decent with the best being Blondie’s: Home of the Dagwood. Cathy’s Ice Cream and Comic Strip Café are also open year-round, while Wimpy’s is only open seasonally.The story goes that things are quiet during the week in the comics, but in Toon Lagoon every day is Sunday and the comics have all come to life in amazing color. Plenty of shopping is also available at Gasonline Alley, Betty Boop Store and Toon Extra.
