(If Animal Kingdom, that can push you to the 28-300, or one with that kind of range) Magic Kingdom, & animal Kingdom....not interested in shooting the animals...(on safari) 2 - Will you want to do shots of the park architecture or more of family portraits, or a combo? (If more family, the 24-105 or the 15-85 would be great. If architecture more, then the 15-85 would probably be a great choice) family and architecture 3 - Does the size and weight of the lens concern you for long days in the parks? Not at all.... No matter what you choose, I hope you and your family have an awesome trip and truly enjoy the parks! may just go with the 24-105 since its IQ, IS, and versatility......but still not sure... < Nikon D7100 -- AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED -- AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G >
