I am the mother of a DD12 (going on 20), and while we know Universal like the back of our hands (have been three times this year alone and will go again in October), I have FINALLY convinced my little speed demon to give Disney another whirl. I am very excited as I can't wait to ride TOT! We will go for six days in February (unfortunately President's week but we won't miss school for anything). I am, in a word, OVERWHELMED. I took her to Disney when she was four and it was all about the magic, so I didn't worry too much about whether we got on all the rides or anything. This time is different. She is all about the thrill rides. I am thinking of staying at the Poly because it seems similar to the Royal Pacific, but I also like the convenience of the BC and the Swan/Dolphin. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I am used to paying under 200 a night at Universal so even the Dolphin rates have me worried.
Also, the parks seem huge and I admit I have been severely spoiled by Universal's FOTL pass. I am afraid that when I get there I will not know which way to run first. Any advice from parents of other speed demons would be oh so welcome! I am not even sure where to begin. Is it worth ordering the personalized park maps from the website? Thank you in advance!
