We were visiting my brother in New Symrna Beach for a few days and decided to head over to Universal. I had mentioned it too my DH before we left and sorta made plans but was up in the air really. But he went for it when we got there 
Crew
Me 30
DH 31
DS 4
DD 3
Our Nephew 6 (he has the best aunt and uncle lol he actually said this!) We didn't tell him we were going to go until the night before we left.
We left NSB around 7am and left for HRH. Got there by 8am checked in to HRH (Entertainment Rate $144 Sunday night) our room wasn't ready but we got our room keys and went over to USO. Staff was super nice! A little too cool
Hotel was beautiful!! What we had seen so far. Grabbed a water taxi to USO.
USO - Got our tickets ordered online for Fan Club rate since we were only doing USO for 1 day!
The kids were so excited Did Jimmy Neutron first my DD was to small so we rode up front! They loved it. My DS (4) was in heaven. We have been places like the zoo aquarium Dollywood but nothing like USO so this was such a treat to them. Love Shrek Earthquake. On Jaws if you sit on the far left side watch that fire HOT my DD (3) is still talking about that Not Jaws lol the fire
We rode everything except MIB because of the height requirments. I just can not tell you how wonderful FOTL is with 3 children! They don't understand you have to wait too well. We bought lanyards for everyone to wear! The best idea... never having to search for your keys. We had lunch at Mels Diner around noon pretty good basic counter service. So around 2pm we had riden everything and the kids needed a little break.
Off to the water taxi and back to HRH our room was ready. Great room little small with extra person but we weren't in there much so it worked well for us. Our luggage wasn't in there so I called and they had it sent up within minutes. Everyone put on there suits and headed for the pool Swam and played LOVED the zero entry level! DH and laid in our lounge chairs and watched the kids play and play. So relaxing!! Everyone is getting hungry so we change for dinner and head to City Walk.
Well on the water taxi ride we relize it was only 5pm and USO was still open.
Just a quick ride did Jimmy Neutron again and took pictures with alot of Charaters great since the kids were fresh now
Over to City Walk we had $50 GC for Bob Marleys. We had order it though the radio station & had planned on going over there with my Brother and his Wife. Although they did not have kids menu our dinner worked out quite well. There was a guy playing the drums. The kids loved it. So no need for them need for them to be super quite and sit too still
We ordered
DH Snapper (it was okay)
Me and the kids shared a bunch of stuff The chips and salsa plate, Jerk Chicken on screwers and peel and eat shrimp. My DS can eat (could not peel the shrimp fast enough) the other too sorta picked but ate a little had no problem when desert came coconut cake and ice cream! YUM!!
USO was closing so City Walk was getting crowed we walked in few shops and walked back to HRH (taxi line was a little full). Took less than 5 miuntes with 3 kids to walk to HRH really pretty walk.
Back in to our swimsuits and played at the pool till around 8pm or so.
Kids were plum tuckered out as my Grandma would say. Got them into there PJS and room service knocked it was Milk and Cookies PERFECT timing!! The biggest cookies ever. Very good too!! First thing my DN told his mom about.
Next Morning! USA today at our door hubby was thrilled. Pool open at 9am so we headed down then. Got our towels sand buckets and a basketball. (All free to use just ask at towel stand) Kids did the Slide(great fun especially since they had life preservers for my DS & DD) a few times and played in the sand pool and kiddie pool for till around 11:30am. We had requested a late checkout of 1pm no problem and no extra charge! (thanks HRH) Went and changed and showered checked out around 12:30.
Everyone was so nice to the kids and us. We are now planning a September trip for 3 nights!

BUT when we went to get our tickets at the will call/guest service window I asked the guy there and he had one no problem. So if you have one at home bring it.
