Do you ever wonder if the Universal people compare the Disney rides to the ones they know and love at Universal??
The must be totally bewildered at the Dole Whip and the Grey Goose slushie must be a revelation....

I just found your TR and I love it! We're Disney people, but we're making a one day trek over to Universal to visit WWoHP on our upcoming trip. I tried to convince my dh that we should fork over the extra $$ for a hotel room on site, but he wouldn't budge. So my guess is we'll be the hot people standing in line for an hour for everything. I think if the kids (both 10) like Universal, then we'll definitely stay in one of their hotels next time we go.
I loved your pics of Jurassic Park and Suessland. Those are the two areas that I'm most looking forward to when we're there.

When you get there, and if your DH is 'done' with standing in lines, you can always purchase an Express Pass Plus at some of the storest that sell them. They sell a limited # per day, so they can run out. But, depending when you are going, they can be expensive per person. That's why most just get a room because with a room it's unlimited Express Pass...when you purchase it, it's 1 Express per attraction. And if it's peak time, it can be *about the same price for a family of four vs a room.
Either way, still beats standing in line. Then you can tell your DH "toldja so"
To us, Butterbeer was definitely butterscotch flavored. And, the frozen was yummilicious!!
My kids loved Suess Landing~~ I think we were right at the edge of them being young enough to appreciate it. (They're 9 and 7) I'm so glad they did, because I loved the theming there! It was perfect.

Our vacation is the first 2 weeks of Aug. (we're leaving on Monday!) and those Express Pass Plus passes are expensive then, which is why I wanted to get the room. We're so used to not standing in line for anything at Disney, that I think the whole family will be complaining about it at Universal. Oh well, it will still be fun to see a new park and I bought the 3 day tickets that they were selling at Costco, so I'm sure we'll be back again next year and I WILL prevail on getting a Universal hotel room then.
Sorry.... That was Ramen. I left my computer on and he got busy with it. He keeps wanting to go to Universal but it's Disney Pools for us!
Thanks for the reports and good luck with your sewing project. I have no idea how much thread you have to move but you must be sewing something beautiful!
