btw, my DH joined the DIS under a name, didn't tell me, and was "messin'" with me on the boards.... he let the cat outta the bag shortly after, he couldn't take it anymore
I am so sorry...I am slack. Ok On Monday we arrived at the Hard Rock Hotel and I went to check in. Smooth sailing. I mentioned that I had called and requested room 6092 and she let me know that I would probably have to wait until later in the day to get my room since I requested this room. No problem! Here is the view...very nice room.
We went directly to Universal Studios. The path to US is very beautiful.
The boats to Hard Rock were VERY slow arriving when we used them. So most of the time we walked. Go to Universal and got our tickets. No problems at all! Got inside and immediately rented a double stroller. I know how tired my kids get and it was very crowded. Plus I need a place to put my stuff. My son really wanted to go to Spiderman so we turned around and headed straight for Islands. Had to take DD screaming on the ride. She was so afraid, but afterwards LOVED IT!!! We spent most of the day in Islands. Last year when we went Dudley Do Right was closed so DS and DH rode that, and we also went to Poseidon for the first time. That was very cool!! We had lunch at a little stand near Mythos. I dont remember the name of it. They only had hot dogs and chicken fingers. We thought it was good. We finally got back to the hotel around 4pm and our room was ready. We went upstairs and got everything unpacked, and got showered. We went to Margaritaville for dinner. We learned quickly that getting on the patio to eat is much faster. Being an on site hotel guest doesnt help a lot there. The wait was about 2 hours. So we sat on the patio in about 20 minutes. Got to bed about 10pm that night so that we could prepare for our next day!!!
That view is GORGEOUS! The room looks large too. Was it a deluxe or standard? I think those pics just convinced me to go ahead and pook for Labor Day weekend!
I am totally lovin all of the Mickey Mouse photos they are great, It totally makes we wanna go back to Universal we didn't go last year it was way to hot and we lounge at the pool instead~ So totally gotta go next year for sure!
