Universal & Islands of Adventure

We’ve only got six days in Orlando, which means we’re having to cram in as much stuff as we can in as few a days as possible, which means I haven’t had time to update the blog. We’re taking lots of photos tough and I’ll add lots more over the next few days.

On Monday we did two theme parks in one day, Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure, which is easier than it sounds because (A) The’re right next two each other and you only have to buy one ticket and (B) we’ve been there before so we know which are the best rides to go on if you haven’t got much time. Also at this time of year there are no queues to get on the rides so we managed to do all the big coasters in IOA and all of the best rides at Universal without any problems.

We also got to visit the new “Wizarding World of Harry Potter”.

I haven’t read any of the books or seen any of the Harry Potter films so I had no idea what most of it was about, but it was still pretty cool to see how they had recreated all the locations and characters from the book. It’s not easy to do two theme parks in one day but when there’s no queues and you already know what the best rides are then you can just run round all day riding all the best ones! We did the same at Disney World yesterday but I’ll post all about that in a couple of days
