Top 5 Challenge

[moray26]

Let's play a game: give me your Top 5 Universal "musts." As a Universal vet, I'm looking for a challenge for my upcoming 10 day vacation (which will include a few days at Universal). I plan to tackle a different Top 5 list each day...and it could be yours!

Your Top 5 list may include any or a mixture of the following:
Attractions
Shows
Dining locations
Things to eat
Places to go
Things to do
Souvenirs

Basically, the only rule is that you may only have 5 things on your list and they must be within Universal property (including the 2 parks, 3 resort hotels, and CityWalk). I've started a Disney challenge on the Disney board, so if you've got stuff for Disney, head over there.
