Our US and IoA tickets were buy 2 days get children free and 3 more days. We stayed in a villa in Haines City at Southern Dunes. The villa
was real nice.
Everyone’s hungry. We stopped at Pastmore. I got an Italian sandwich. My husband had lasagna. Our boys had pizza. Everyone liked what they got. I took a lot of pictures and video of City Walk.
We got a late start in US. We took pictures with the stilt walkers. Then we ran into Zoro. My Mom, Dad, Brother, SIL and their 3 kids are meeting at the park. We rode E.T. with my Mom and Dad. I thought it was pretty cool. We meet up with my brother and his family. The kids wanted to ride Woody Woodpeckers Nuthouse Coaster. It was perfect for our 4 yr old, Joe.
Then we were off to see Barney. It was really cool. My kids always liked Barney and The Backyard Gang! It was the Christmas show. Then we got pics with Barney.
We were all excited to see Shrek. So we headed over there next. We liked it a lot. I think my husband like this the best.
Earthquake was really cool! It wasn’t at all what I thought it would be like. I was afraid we were going to get wet. It was cold outside. Everyone found something at Sugar Sugar yummy! We took some pictures at Jaws.
Grabbed some burgers at Mels. We thought the food was good.
To our surprise they had Cinesphere Spectacular! I was told they were not showing it Christmas week. We were glad we got to see it!
Earlier in the day my husband and son waited in line at Jimmy Neutron. They waited about 15 mins and the ride closed for some reason. This was earlier in the day.
We really enjoyed Universal Studios. My youngest son, Joe ended up with an ear infection. We didn’t get to use all five days of our passes.
We did 2 days at IoA, MK, MGM, and Epcot. The parks were crowded. We knew Christmas week would be. It was a good time. We wont go at Christmas again.
 
Thanks for the report! Glad you liked Universal. Your report showcases so well how much there really is to do for the little ones. :thumbsup2

Sounds like you got a lot in for getting a late start :goodvibes

What a shame your son got an ear infection. That is such a bummer when kids get sick on vacation. Hopefully you can go back soon and finish all the parks!
 
So sorry your son got an ear infection! Glad you enjoyed the park, hope you can make it back again soon!
 
Glad to hear you enjoyed your trip for the most part. Kids getting sick on vacation are lousy. We've ended up in the hospital one year with pneumonia.
 

Glad to hear you enjoyed most of your trip. Kids getting sick on vacation is lousy!!
