Up and at 'em not so bright and early at 10:30 and into Universal Studios Florida by noon...ish. We went straight to Diagon Alley to ride "Escape from Gringotts" and managed to only wait for about an hour. The queue to the ride is almost as good as the ride itself. The queue passes through the bank complete with animatronic goblin tellers. The ride was great too - no nausea for either Christy or I this time. Next stop the Kings Crossing station to take the train over to the Island of Adventure park. We stopped first at Camp Jurassic where the kids got to climb through caves, over rope bridges, etc until we were all hungry and very hot. I got in a ride on Doctor Doom's Fearfall on our way to see Will's favorite talking fountain. This time the Jessi got in on the action and started teasing the fountain. It was hilarious to watch the two of them work together against the fountain. We took the train from Hogsmeade back to Kings Crossing (which IS a different experience than traveling in the other direction) and headed back to the Curious George area where the kids played in the ball area and got soaked while Christy and I took turns riding some of the bigger rides. We hit lovely Walmart (packed on a Sunday night at 9pm... who knew?) for supplies and we're back at the hotel by 10pm.
So cute!
