I read through the entire thread and don't see an update to this (although I could have missed it)...so I figure I'll ask. I know that Volcano Bay did not have hotel Express Pass when it opened last year. However, my DH was looking at Universal's website the other night and noticed that on the...

Macraven--I would like to book our room within the next few days. I know that July is busy so we don't have the luxury of waiting it out. In any case, the P2P will give us the option of doing Volcano Bay more than 1 or 2 days since we'll have to buy separate tickets for that for the AP holder...

Thank you! I went and looked and did some calculations, and the Power Pass would be the one we'd look at, based on our dates. Having to tack on at least one day's worth of Volcano Bay tickets for the AP holder if we go that route lessens some of the appeal. DH and I need to talk and flesh out...

You folks are terrific. Macraven--I have a feeling that DH is going to say the same thing about being situated and not want to fool with moving from a different hotel for just one night. We'll have to see what the plan is with the extended family to see if we can get there earlier than I am...

Thank you for your reply. There really isn't a lot of difference in the ticket prices between 3 and 5 days (only $100 total increase for the five of us from 3 to 5 days) for the park to park tickets, so I'm not worried about that. I'm trying to figure out the number of days so we can see...

We are just starting the planning process and while I did a few searches, I think it might be better for me to describe our trip parameters and let the experts help with my question of "how many days" to devote to the three parks. We are traveling by car to Florida for a family reunion in...

Despite DD not feeling well for a huge chunk of the day and MIL getting tired at the end, I'd say my family enjoyed themselves at our day at SeaWorld. I would probably do the "All Day Dining" again. DH and I talked about it after and he figured that if we had stayed until the end, we...

<p>After Turtle Trek, we got MIL outside and she felt better, so we continued on. By now, it was pretty dark, but we tried to go over to the dolphin underwater viewing area.  Although we couldn't see much, we did get a little glimpse: <img...

<p>After we walked quite a bit around the theater and realized that the dolphin show really was full, we headed over to see some turtles, alligators and manatees, since we had not yet visited this part of SeaWorld. <img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7561/16136364427_eca259b4de_z.jpg"...

Can't wait--I can relate to the planning. :goodvibes It is nice to be able to go back through the line and supplement if you need something else. That is also one of the advantages to eating at off times...the lines aren't as long. Gina--I didn't realize that some meals had sides. It...

Can'twait--Thank you for your kind words. I will talk about the dining more in this post. Debsters--Thank you. Gina--That makes sense. It just seemed really odd that they didn't tell us anything about the whales. :confused3 I'll have to remember that for next time...

Gina--I felt bad because DS6 really wanted to do them...but it's good to hear we didn't miss much. :) Aw, thanks...he is a real sweetie...I remember seeing your photos so I wasn't surprised, but DH and MIL were disappointed with the lack of clear views. JaxDad--Thank you...

<p>After our Sky Tower ride, we decided to start to walk towards Shamu for the 2:30 show.  En route, we encountered divers at the Oyster's Secret. <img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7543/16287642016_54c2e0b2f8_z.jpg" width="300" /> The one who interacted with DS6 was quite animated. ...

Gina--Aw, thanks. I have to thank you for all of your terrific reviews. I loved reading them all, and they were so helpful in my planning. _______________________________________________________________ <p>We all spilled out of the theater after the show and we spied the snow globe where...

After our "snack", we walked over to the Seaport Theater for the 11:30 showing of Pets Ahoy.  We were trying to heed the advice that guests really needed to get to the shows early, although 45 minutes seemed like overkill.  Truth be told, we probably could have arrived right at 11:25 for this...

<p>Since we were fairly close to Kraken and it was still early, DH, DD and DS8 decided to give one of the two big coasters a try.  MIL, DS6 and I would wait it out, some of us more patiently than others. </p><p><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7517/16304095881_f663a811ec_z.jpg"...

DH noted that there were different types, and we were told that there were four different species there.</p><p><img src="https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8590/15683213674_419ba652e2_z.jpg" width="600" /> Not a zoomed in photo.  He was right there next to me.</p><p><img...

I posted a few questions about SeaWorld prior to our visit last month, and was so grateful for the answers, as well as all I read in other threads, that I figured I would do a review of our one day visit to SeaWorld once we returned. I also thought that maybe it might help others who are...

Help! My family of five (Me, DH, DD11, DS8 and DS6) are going to visit my MIL the week after Christmas, and we've already purchased our one day tickets and the dining plan. We will likely go the Monday after Christmas. We have visited Disney twice in June, so we know about crowds, but I'm...

Thank you for the photo, as this is the only fairly recent listing I've seen for actual menu prices at Sea World right now. I am curious, though. I keep reading that you can get dessert or fruit or a side with the dining plan, but yet, in this photo, the fruits and desserts don't have a blue...
