    My July 5th Experience at IOA / Universal

    So my hubby and I stayed at the Royal Pacific for the first time from July 4-July 6th. We decided to hit SeaWorld on July 4th and had a great time- I’ll write about that experience in the SeaWorld forum. We ended up dedicated the entire day of July 5th to both Universal and IOA and used our...

    Best iphone app for ride wait times

    That is weird- maybe you have an older version of the app? I just recently re-downloaded it in the past couple of weeks. I did notice that Transformers is not on it though...

    Strange Question about Dragon Challenge

    Yeah Metro- Do you know why they stopped doing that? That was one of the most exciting parts of the ride when both coasters looped at the same time at each other. So dissapointing.

    Best iphone app for ride wait times

    I have an iphone and used the Undercover Tourist app back in February for both Disney parks and Universal / IOA. I found it extremely useful and pretty accurate. People who use the app can submit what their wait time was and I did that after almost every ride. It is useful for when there are...

    Park to Park ???

    I agree- I think Park to Park is totally worth it. This way you won't feel limited or tied down to a certain park. It is nothing like Disney where you need to walk 15 minutes from the park to the busess, then the 15 minute bus ride, then walk to the park entrance- it ends up being like an hour...

    Strange Question about Dragon Challenge

    Dueling Dragons is one of my favorite roller coasters! I don't think you get thrown around at all, the restraints keep you pretty much in place. I have a much harder time doing the Incredible Hulk. I can do DD 5 times in a row no issues, Incredible Hulk once and need to take a break for bit...

    Using Costco tickets...do you need to show credit card used?

    My hubby and I purchased the three day Costco tickets in February in NH and never needed to show an ID or receipt. When we first got there, we showed the tickets (which we signed) and scanned our fingerprint and then never needed the ticket again. It was very easy to go back and forth between...
