Fall break and we're excited to fly into Orlando to experience 3 out of the 4 Universal Studios parks!
Banana!
We stayed 1 night at Double Tree to walk across the street to the City Walk

Chocolate Emporium was colossally good
Checking out what rides we can ride. All of them!
OK, first morning we went straight through Hogsmeade to Hagrid's Motorbike ride, and it was an amazing coaster! Definitely would ride again.

Line was too long for Velocicoaster by the time we got to it, but met a 'real' velociraptor.

| a scary cinematic ride |

Thank you, Spiderman, for keeping us safe on your ride.

Did two water rides. Got soaked on the second, thanks in part to onlookers with water guns. Afterwards, Lydia very much enjoyed the onlooker role.
Fish & Chips were delicious. Butterbeer tasted like butterscotch and pumpkin juice tasted like apple cider.
Lydia enjoyed casting all the spells at the shop windows.

| and she was selected for "The wand chooses the wizard" experience at Ollivanders Wand Shop! |
We talked to the fountain. It played "in the heart of Texas" for us.
End of day 1 in the park. I think my throat is going to be sore from screaming. Lots of cool encounters. Gotta dry our shoes.
