Our girls trip to Orlando was the best! Hillary flew from SoCal to SLC Thursday afternoon and Hailey and I met her at the airport and we all got on a flight to Orlando, arriving at our wonderful hotel the Loews Royal Pacific.
Since we stayed at a hotel on the Universal Orlando property we got into Universal an hour before the public (7-8 am) and also got Express Passes which were amazing!!! The longest we waited in a line was for one of the prime Harry Potter rides for 25 min. The rest of the lines were 5-10 min. or we just walked right onto the ride.
Hillary has always been a Harry Potter fan and was so excited to ride the Hogwarts Express!
We shared a frozen butterbeer and a pumpkin juice and they were both delicious!
I had so much fun with these two minions...
After 12 hours in the park Friday, we headed back again Saturday morning bright and early in our Jurassic Park shirts and rode the Mummy three times in a row, the Harry Potter rides again and got soaking wet on a couple of water rides. Since neither of the girls had been to Blue Man Group we got tickets for the 6 pm show and then headed to Bubba Gumps for dinner. Another fun-filled, packed day!
Sunday was our last day (due to Hailey in school at BYU and Hillary's work) so we went on a 5-mile walk bright and early, enjoyed an amazing lunch which we got 50% off due to a long wait and an ambitious squirrel that jumped on our outside table, went to 1:00 church and the Orlando Temple across the street and headed to the airport for our evening flights home to Utah and California.
Saying goobye at the airport until we see each other again at Thanksgiving...
