give a first timer some help with US/IOA

[Miniefan]

I have never been to US/IOA, and we are planning on going down there in October. I would like to know what I can expect in comparison to WDW. I am not a big roller coaster fan, and I have been told a few times by friends that's all they have, It will be me, DH, Mom, DS7, Ds4. My son is hyped up about the MUMMY ride but I am not so sure even what it is like can someone please help us out???

There is much more to the Universal park than roller coasters. I can never understand why people say that's all there is when there are really one the Hulk and Dueling Dragons as far as BIG coasters are concerned. The theming at IOA is outstanding and there is PLENTY to do if you don't like coasters. I haven't been on the Mummy yet, but there are many posts on this board from people who have.
You shouldn't even try to compare Universal to WDW. They are two very different places. Just enjoy each for what they have to offer. I visit Universal parks with a friend who will not ride coasters, and she loves these parks.
