Orlando Trip: Universal Studios

Our last couple days of Orlando were spent at Universal Studios. There are 2 main Universal parks, the main Universal Studios and Treasure Island. On our first day, we did Universal Studios and our second day, Treasure Island. Personally, I liked Treasure Island as this was home of Harry Potter and Dr. Seuss land. We are big Dr. Seuss fans in our house and so this was especially fun and age appropriate for Lucas and Sam. Sam and Ethan were still too small to go on many rides, but they still managed to have a great time. :) It was certainly a busy and exhausting couple days, but I'm so glad we got to do Universal and see most everything there was to see and ride. Oh, you will see several poncho pictures and that's because we had to dodge a little bit of rain (ok, a lot of pouring rain) both of the days. Didn't damper our fun though and looking forward to hopefully going back again in the future. 
Depicable Me, a favorite with the boys!



Many poncho moments from Universal! We quickly bought them after our first of several downpours both days. The ponchos became a running joke. :)

The pictures on the wall of this restaurant might have scared Lucas a little.

Oh, Les was told to "look serious" here, haha!

Our goofy, but fun group!

This tube ride was super cool in the kid zone...well, I got to ride it too and it was a blast!

Ethan and Jillian hanging with the Simpsons.

Jillian's new mama, haha, just kidding!

Jillian's "new family"...haha!



Sam frequently studied the map while waiting for the group to come off rides he was too small to go on.



Coming off the very fun Jurassic Park ride...one of my favs for sure!


The next several shots are from Dr. Seus land...our FAVORITE!! Dr. Seuse land was very, very cool and so appropriate for the kids. Sam could actually ride most everything here. Was so cute!





Sam started getting a little tired at this point in the day.
