Day 3 Universal Studios, MIB and Santa Claus
Babies just don’t realize that when you are on vacation and you have a late night it is okay to sleep past 6:00am and not feel bad about it. So Willy Wonka and I started the day by walking around the Royal Pacific and taking lots of pictures. We went back to the room and got the rest of the crew up Which was not an easy thing to do . It takes my Dh about 4 hours to really wake up and be in a nice mood and Stephen is just like him . We headed off to Universal Studios and started the day with Twister. It was not crowded at all and we were able to do the whole park in about 5 hours. Bill and Adam did most of the rides while the babies and I walked around and did the shops. Stephen loved Fival’s Playground and Curious George playhouse and he was able to do E.T the ride but I am not sure if he liked it or not he had this odd perplexed look about him when his daddy brought him off the ride. .We watched a few of the character caravans and The Mystery Machine with Scooby and Shaggy. We had lunch at Mel’s diner (cheeseburgers and Milkshakes) and called it a day. We headed back to the hotel to freshen up a little bit and went back to Islands of Adventure for a few more hours of rides and shopping. I convinced my Dh and Adam to go on Ripsaw Falls( I am an evil woman and told them that you didn’t get that wet) The look on their faces when the got off the ride was priceless, they were soaked head to toe and it made all the bench sitting I had done that day worth it. I forgot that when you go on vacation with kids that you really don’t get a vacation.It’s just the same thing with a change of scenery. Tomorrow we head to The Yacht club and I can’t wait ! That is when my time starts and daddy gets to keep the benches warm while mommy shops till she drops and then some.
TTFN( Ta Ta for now)
