We decided this year we would buy Universal and Islands of Adventure annuall passes, we really enjoy Universal and didnt think we spent enough time there last year.
We drove down to Universal and got lost once, lol we are both bad at directions. Opted for the preffered parking.
The one thing I dont like is the creditcard people on the way in they are quiet pushy, and I feel quiet nervous aound them.
We had our now yearly pics in frount of the universal globe and I managed to get chris in frount of two massive snowmen, below (now I know I seem to have this jacket on always but I do have three the same lol as I LOVE it lol)

We got through the gates straight away and went for our pic taking for our passes, we opted for the universal studios park first,
Its absolutely dead on the way into Universal studios, we walk right on to everything and are finished in 2 and a half hours, we even walked onto the mummy, which is a fantastic ride and I loved it.
We saw the blues brothers driving their car round which made me smily as I remember them doing this when I was small. We did some shopping and picked up some sponge bob things for a friend at work.
Then we decided to head on over to the hard rock cafe for lunch, its was very quiet in there too. the food was massive and very tasy we could have easy shared one emal between two.
After lunch it was off to ioa, now this wasnt something I was looking forward to as last year I had so much weight on me I couldnt fit on the hulk and didnt find out till I tried to sit in the seat on the ride, and had to get off, I turned all shades of red last year. Now this year I tried the seats outside first and WOOHOO I fit!!! granted in the larger seat (I still have a large top part) but I was so excited that I fit!! good old weight watchers I really enjoyed the hulk and its now my fave ride.
me below nervous about trying the seat

We went on everything apart from dueling dragons as just about as we were going to join the line we saw a girl come off being very sick and I thought no way!.
We really enjoyed our day at universal and returned quiet a few times during the holiday, sometimes just to shop.
