Kennedy Space Center is only an hours drive from the Disney area of Orlando, so there really is no excuse for not going. Tickets are $24 which puts onto a 3 site bus tour of the base, and gives you a cool pass to wear round your neck. At each destination you are dropped off and left to take the tour or go round at your own pace. Things not to miss are the launch towers for the shuttles - although you can't get too close they are stunning, the reenactment of the first mission to the moon, the Saturn V exhibition and the alligators (!) lining the roads (Kennedy's defence program!) The sheer size of the place alone is worth visiting! Gifts are reasonably priced too, although I wouldn't eat there as it was quite expensive. Takes about 4 hours to do the whole place, so you could plan for an afternoon or morning excursion.
