If you are coming to Miami and want to check out the lovely ladies of south beach hit Nikki or Opium, tough to get into sometimes unless you feel like greasing the doorman with a c-note to speed up the process, but once inside you will enjoy. Both are very cool clubs. You can spend two weeks just hitting all the clubs on SoBe.
If you want to gamble the Seminole Hard Rock casino opens on the 11th I believe. Sports, you can hit Gulfstream for some horse racing. Jai Alai, Marlins, Heat if they are still in the playoffs, U of M baseball, plenty of good golf courses, Doral or Crandon Park which is a very nice public course in Key Biscayne. Venetian Pool in Coral Gables is a nice place to take a dip or just chill out and relax with a cool beverage.
If you want to grab a meal try Azul inside the Mandarin Oriental. Expensive but probably one of the best hotels not just in Miami but in the US. Grab a martini at MBar also inside Mandarin, 200+ martini's, all top shelf quality. Christy's in Coral Gables has great steaks at a descent price, Cafe Abracci in the Gables for outstanding Italian.
Don't forget to check out the nude beach on SoBe

Disney MGM studio is the best park Disney Wise for "thrill" rides...They have the rocking roller coaster with Aerosmith theme (good interlude too), Tower of Terror with random dropping (no two rides are the same), Star Tours (motion ride with Star Wars theme), Backlot Tour used to be better when they had all the house sets up from Golden Girls, Empty Nest, etc...but its still worth taking for the Catastrophe Canyon part....Muppets 3D is good there....They also have the Great Movie Ride...and they have the best nighttime show of any park..its called FANTASMIC..They built a lagoon and stadium just for this...its absolutely AMAZING..and I guarantee you'll want to see it 2-3 times....Make sure you get there 1 hour before showtime..the stadium gets packed FAST
Enjoy

Also Prelude, check with Universal and ask if they have at the tim the option of paying a little bit extra to obtain a pass which takes you past much of the lines which wait for each ride/show. Trust me, if they offer it at the time your attending, pay the extra!
