We have also just booked this week for a 3 week visit only been for 2 before but we figured with the more expensive flights we may aswell get our money's worth and stay longer

We are odd in that we have never set foot on Universal property so except for a day pass to SeaWorld in 04 we stayed on Disney property although we always shop at Premium Outlets, we also feel very excited about our next visit, our children are older and will get to enjoy Busch Gardens and Universal,Portofino Bay looks nice and we will have their express passes and the extra hour in the morning for Harry Potter

It is very hot in the summer so we get up for openings then go back in the afternoon to our resort to relax and swim.Now the children stay up later we can enjoy the parks at night

We are hiring a car which we haven't done since our first trip,we feel we are getting so brave!
