My kids are seven and nine. We have yet to go on a true family vacation. All of their friends have been to Disney World or on cruises, but we haven’t done that yet. We always say, “maybe next summer”. Well next summer came and at the end of August, we will be taking a little trip to Orlando, Florida and taking the kids to Universal Studios and Treasure Island!
The kids are beside themselves excited!! They want me to look up all the rides at Universal Studios and watch all the movies that they have to do with. I’m kind of excited about that because I love Jurassic Park and wouldn’t mind watching it with them! I still remember seeing that movie in the theater when it first came out! It’s fun introducing my kids to the movies I grew up watching!
We will be driving, which will be a little interesting. It will be the longest we’ve ever been in the car with them, but airline tickets are just too much. Plus, I’d rather have our car there. Who wants to have to rent a car, on top of all of the other expenses? I surely wouldn’t want to! I’d rather save that money for all the yummy treats I see people eating while they are in Florida.
Have you been to Universal Studios? What is your favorite ride? I haven’t been there since I was a kid, but I remember really liking the Back to the Future ride. I also really wanted to go on the Jaws ride, but that was closed when we were there. Hopefully they are still both there!!
Leave me a comment and let me know what we should see and do while we are in Florida. I would love to hear from you!!
