[Sportsandrec] Roller Coasters??

It's my understanding that some of the amusement parks, Disney in particular, 
have hand held GPS tools available for you to use.  I know people who have been 
able to get around the park independently, if you know how to use a GPS.

Yes, I suggest that you go directly to the Guest Relations office and tell them 
your situation.  As an accommodation, amusement parks generally can provide a 
park employee to walk/direct you to each ride.  I've been to both Magic 
Mountain, and to Great America in California and had a park employee assist my 
group with getting around the park.  I've never been to a park in Florida, but 
the same accommodation should apply.  I was able to do this the day of but just 
to make sure, you may want to call Guest Relations in advance.  Good luck and 
have a blast!
