If I could just get my 3 Editors to decide on the pics for the next installment..... (I never should have brought them into the process ....)

Too many cooks? You know what they say about that.
Tell them their fans are waiting for an update!
Oh boy, don't I know it. I need NextGen in the house so I can schedule a TR completion time.
But, I doubt there would be any availability since I'm inside of 60 days.....
They're all 3 off island tomorrow for Dr.'s appointments. One whole afternoon to myself. Update guaranteed for tomorrow evening!
Well, my trip was in December and I finally just started last week. So when you need to feel better about your progress, just compare yours to mine.
I hope you have a productive afternoon!
Ha! Maybe we need to start a Dudley Wave Support Group. I know DW would be right in there with youAwesome day! Your pics really show how much fun you're all having. DD and I did all 3 water rides on a coolish day in November and we were completely 110% soaked. The snipers got us from the bridge on the barges and as a final f-u after the drop on the Dudley ride I got a wave to the face as we rounded the first corner. Looking forward to doing it all again in April with a bit of warmer weather!
We've done the secret Theme Park trip thing with the boys. Man, was that tougher than we expected. Just like you're saying, I spent half the time planning on the computer looking over my shoulder - so I sympathize! And I've heard SDC has some good soakers. You'll be more than happy with Uni's. I lived in Fla as a kid. I don't know if I'd even leave the Toon Lagoon and Jurassic areas in the Summer!.OMG those pictures on the rides! I should really know better by now to NOT READ these during kid awake hours! (I laugh-they ask what I'm laughing at and immediately head over to see computer screen...-they still don't know we are going in June). I think the "water" rides in the parks at WDW are tame-we live by Branson MO -- and Silver Dollar City--and last year we all got off Kali and said "That's it??" . SDC has some soaker rides so looking forward to Universals! Plus we will be there in hotter-than-Hades June...
Can't wait til next installment!
I agree, they should re-name it Discovery Oasis. If it ever goes away for some other attraction, I hope it's just as much of an Oasis, escape from the heat, chill spot....Excellent update!
I think it's great how they put all those water rides in one area of the park...so you can keep the water rides contained.
Love the Discovery Zone...I really believe it saved our life (or at least the day) last August when it was a billion degrees out and we could just chill in there for a bit with the dinos and have a soda!
Wow, I'd love to do one of the VIP tours some day. Haven't heard anything but great stuff about them.Thanks for sharing, I have enjoyed reading this one too! Great pics, mad storytelling skillz, what's not to like?
I've made a few short trips back too in the last year, but TRs are not my forte. Enjoyed RPH over Labor Day, backed into a day-trip private VIP tour last month, and then a quick return once more for a weekend at Cabana Bay--had a great time too. Diagon Alley in particular is very impressive, and the laid-back pace at Universal has been winning out for us lately, Disney hasn't seen us for 6 months--an eternity for us!
Keep 'em coming.

And dude, don't sell yourself short on your TR's. I found your Cali TR as one of the most concise, objective, and informative I've read. Seriously. Between Mom's TR's and yours, I know I won't even need to crack one of those overpriced propaganda Guide Books for our 1st trip west (maybe) even next year.....
Absolutely. Would love to know. We got AP's just in case we need to go down and help with MiL anytime this year (hopefully for good not bad reasons). Having APs help if we ever want to chunk down some extra for a VIP.....Well, thanks. At the very least mine wasn't half as entertaining as yours is. Mine reads more like a phone book!
I'll PM you the circumstances and details of the VIP tour if interested.
What a great, great story. I can't tell you how much it brightened up my not so great Monday. Thank you!I've been reading this great report in-between watching tennis, basketball and now the Walking Dead season finale (unlike the other poster, I can't delay Walking Dead, sorry bro). I have to say, your family is just lovely and your report was fantastic. My DS, age 8, LOVED the pics. He is SO excited to get there at the end of May. We have invited Josh from easywdw to join us. He said he probably would! Once upon a time, I was having problems with my then-hubby (who is no longer hubby) and he had pretty much abandoned us in Disney and I saw Josh taking pics, knew who he was, and it made me feel better just seeing a friendly face. Now, I've been dating a wonderful guy for several years (and my son loves him and his kids). His kids went to Universal last year and now we're going this year. Josh will hopefully review one of the restaurants we go to!
