Universal - NOT LIKELY TO RETURN

[bg4]

School Groups, Tour Groups (perhaps Brazilian perhaps not- but with flag), marching bands - that never happens at disney - YEAH RIGHT - of course it does. Lets not make this into something its not. These (trying to be nice and PC) groups of people go to all parks, not just one.

I'm not sure but I don't think anyone is trying to imply that these groups don't visit all other parks. I know all I was trying to get across is that the bad behavior was allowed to continue at the park on the days I was there when I have seen poor behavior handled in immediate expulsion at other places.

The only people that approached us were the ones asking if we wanted to do the preview for the new shows and offer us money for doing it! Since we were from Canada they wanted nothing to do with us.

Although the crowds were huge on the Saturday that we were there, we didn't find anyone to be any more disruptive than your average, normal teenager at the mall.

Are we talking Universal in Florida or in CA, seems like I am confused?

CJN,

The only reason I say 6 at Disney is b/c I always find so much to do at the resorts. I'll be honest, the resorts are the biggest thing that keeps me coming back to Disney.

We actually feel that way about the hotels at Universal. We're staying 4 nights at PBH over July 4th -with 3 pools and a bocce ball court plus the planned activities, I think we've pretty much got everyone in the family covered (a 4 yo boy and 16 yo girl).

We've stayed at all 3 hotels and have always had just as much fun hanging at the hotel as we have at the parks.

I've stayed at all the mods and deluxes at Disney as well-after hiking to the dining areas at Caribbean Beach and Port Orleans, I love the convenience of ducking down to The Kitchen for dinner.

Next time, I am going to name my trip report thread something horrible ... like

Don't ever stay at the HRH!!!!!!!!!

RPR = ICKY!

NO MAGIC AT UNIVERSAL!!!!

It seems that way, my positive report will be around forever...

Seriously, why is this thread still going? We've never had a trippie last like 5 months on this board. Has the OP even been back in a while?

Anyway, agree with phamton .... the Brazilian Tour groups are the WORST! Most of the school groups we saw this trip were supervised.

Just thinking the same thing. I was kind of sorry that I subscribed early to this. Let it die. Sounds from this article that the mainland Chinese are worse than the Brazilians.
