Need help with a decision....

[czycropper]

I'm going down to N. Redington Beach for Memorial Day (flying in late Friday and leaving late Wednesday) and since I got the free ticket to Universal - I was thinking of going there one of the days - so, should I do it? Which day would be least crowded AND should I make a reservation at one of the hotels to get the Universal Pass? or should I just not do it?

I was also thinking of going to Busch Gardens...I haven't been in over 20 years, is it worth it?

Oh, I'll be going down with my DDs and staying with my father. He lives across from the beach so we'll definitely do that one day but I need to keep an 11 year old and 9 year old busy or it will awful for me. My DH is staying home with the dog we're getting in April.

TIA

If you stay away from Memorial Day weekend you should be good. Plan on going to Universal either Monday or Tuesday after the holiday. I don't think you will find any specials on the hotel rates that weekend so it may be too expensive. If you can avoid the weekend, you shouldn't need the Express Plus passes. I haven't been to BG in a long time either but if you like coasters, it's definately worth it!
