    Park to Park tickets - necessary or no?

    Hmmm...that's not the one I saw. It said you could add the park-to-park option but it was a few hundred dollars. But maybe they see offering that for different dates.

    Park to Park tickets - necessary or no?

    Oh ok. This is all new to me. I just went on the Universal Website and priced out a package and the only ticket options they offered for August were Orlando Flex tickets, like I described. Seemed ridiculously cheap even if you only used it to go to Universal. And for unlimited access, seems...

    Here the taxes and whatnot on gas get factored right into the price. So they are passed right in to the costumer. The store owner doesn't have to pay any of them.

    Universal problem.. no good food?

    Thanks for the recommendations. It was mostly counter service that I was looking at. I'm a little disappointed too by how limited their dining plan is. They say it's good at over 100 locations but they are mostly counting snack carts. It's not even good at their resorts and at 2 quick...

    where to eat at universal/islands of adventure?

    Wait...if you are vegan, how can you drink milkshakes? They are dairy free?

    Resort Parking Costs

    I am 90% sure we are going to stay a Cabana on our next trip to Orlando. It looks really cool but a driving factor is cost. It seems cheaper than the moderate room we would get a Disney and we would get a whole suite for our family of 5. However, I want to account for all the costs to make...

    Universal problem.. no good food?

    I have no doubt that the quality of the food at Universal probably matches Disney but I'm with the OP in terms of selection. We have not gone there yet but are planning a trip ands have been to Disney oodles. And when I look at the menus at Universal, with some exceptions, they seem so boring...

    Park to Park tickets - necessary or no?

    I'm a little confused by your initial question. You said something about getting a multiday pass but said you were staying at Cabana. My understanding was that the package comes with the Orlando pass that gives you unlimited access to both Universal parks along with Seaworld, Aquatica and Wet...

    Really? Do you at least no White Christmas and Annie Get Your Gun? Hugely popular musicals and movies. Berlin was one of the founding fathers of Broadway. He wrote much of the popular music of his time too, recorded by people like Frank Sinatra, Barbara Streissand, Fred Astaire, Bing Crosby...

    I guess I'm not seeing how I'm wrong. This seems to affirm my point...which is, when the Wiz originally came out, it wasn't concerned with being politically correct. You have posted an excerpt about the recent adaptation, which may very well be a different kettle of fish and it's too bad that...

    I am with you. It's much too commercialized. I buy a small amount of gifts and 90% of it is done online and 5% at the couple of craft fairs I go to. The stores just turn me off Christmas. That being said, I do see a lot of generosity at Christmas that I don't see at other times of the year...

    It's probably a sickness but I find it amusing how stressed people get at this time of year for no good reason. We willingly went to the mall yesterday to let the kids use the gift cards they got for Christmas. It was pretty civilized but people were impatient, pushing by people. I just kept...

    We have never had trouble finding tables on the fly either.

    It was fantastic. I am exhausted today though. Came back from church and now I just want a nap. But lunch is up next and board games this afternoon and carolling tonight.
