Touring Plan Advice Needed

[DisPhanatic]

Good morning!

Based on some advice I have seen here about not hitting Gringott's first thing in the morning if you won't have early admission, I have revised my touring plan. I will be going Wednesday Nov 18th and am hoping for low crowds. Undercover Tourist has both USF and IOA green and a 3 that day. I will have two boys 7 and 9 with me.

I would love some thoughts on the plan. It will be a one day, park to park trip. We went once last year to Universal but don't have much experience.

Start in USF.
Despicable Me
Hollywood Rip Ride Rock It (if the 9 year old wants to)
Transformers
Revenge of Mummy
Men in Black
Simpsons
Woody Woodpecker Coaster
ET

Enter Daigon Alley - Ride Gringott's, see the sites, hop the train to IOA

Enter Hogsmeade. Lunch at Three Broomsticks.

Jurassic River Adventure
Camp Jurassic Play
Spiderman
Cat in the Hat

Finish in Hogsmeade - Flight of the Hippogriff, Forbidden Journey, explore. Maybe ride train back if we want but not needed.

So, is this a good play for a one day visit? Too much? Too little? If we have time to add Twister, Terminator, or Sinbad Stunt Show, which is worth our time?

Thanks so much for your help! I can plan Disney in the snap but I'm working on becoming more than a novice at Universal touring.

Looks pretty good. I'm assuming you are not staying onsite so you will not have express passes. One suggestion I have is to get to the gates about 30 minutes before they open. US usually opens the gates a little early and despicable me gets a line fast, even if the crowds are light. You should be going at a good time but it's supposed to be that way know and I've heard it's been busier than usual. Have fun!

You'll want to ride the train both ways ... the experience is different on the way to Hogwarts vs heading back to London. Both are fun!
