Around I-Drive is very touristy, but its got some good restaurants and cool attractions. That is the street that has all the theme parks and things.

Tons to do, depends on what you're looking for and how much time you'll have. You can hire a bass fishing guide at disney.

"During construction of the Magic Kingdom theme park in the late 1960s, more than 70,000 bass fingerlings were released into Bay Lake and Seven Seas Lagoon. Organized fishing tours didn't start at Walt Disney World Resort until 1977, leaving bass to grow and breed undisturbed for years. The heaviest largemouth bass caught and recorded at the Vacation Kingdom was 14 pounds, 6 ounces. Guests routinely catch bass weighing from 2 to 8 pounds -- and guides relate tales of catches in the 12-pound range. Most trips catch five to 10 fish, depending upon time of day, number of people on board ... and luck.
BASS fishing excursions are part of the menu of options available in various Dream Maker Packages at Walt Disney World Resort, which start at $359 per adult (based on double occupancy) for three nights. Guided fishing excursions can be booked at 407/WDW-BASS (2277)."
