I made a good call on skipping the jurassic park one. The others were in the front row and got soaked again. They are on flight of the hippogriff now.

I'm loving the play by play as you're there! I just love Universal Florida. That shirt you got is super cute!
I wish I could do an actual play by play. These are just highlights, but thank you! We are having so much fun! Unfortunately my bestie and her daughter just left, so we are sad.
I dropped the ball with food tonight. We were so tired. We were going to take Uber to Chuy's and I remember last time we had to wait forever for a table and when I called to make a reservation it said something about ordering online for pick up or delivery, or stay on the line to talk to a manager. Wait, what? So we just decided to order online and have it delivered. But. I picked the wrong sauce for the enchiladas and failed to see that the Tortilla soup had avacado and cilantro in it, neither of which my daughter likes, and I don't like cilantro. And the enchiladas were covered in cilantro as well. The nachos were good though.
The delivery guy asked me if I am pregnant.
Hint to all the men: Never ever ask a woman if she's pregnant. It's extremely insulting at the minimum, and can be triggering if the woman has just miscarried or has had trouble conceiving. Just don't do it. It's like saying "Boy, are you FAT!"
No pictures because I didn't have my camera handy and the food was already getting cold.
The I went to bed and suddenly was rudely awakened... I don't know if the food didn't sit well, or if I got food poisoning, or if it's just my body reacting to being tired, etc, but I got sick and it was so sudden that I didn't have time to make if to the bathroom. I didn't have any stomach ache or anything and I was sound asleep. My head hurts, and has since last night, but no stomach ache, so no clue where it came from.
Hope my bestie and her daughter didn't get sick!
On a fun note, we got to ride the hogwarts express both ways.

Thank you sir. You were an inspiration.

Oh no . . . I hope that this is just a very quick stomach virus, and that you'll feel a lot better this morning.

I hope it was the heat and rich food and not a virus. Hopefully you’ll feel better today.
Can’t believe that guy would ask if you were pregnant!! What did you say back? Did you ask him if he was pregnant or just a jerk?

Wow to that delivery guy. I hope you didn’t tip him!
I hope you feel better. Sounds like it was all connected. I like to call that traveling sickness. I hope you are done with it!
Btw, I did make it home. And only 3 hours late.
I was delayed because of a high heat index in the Northeast. Huh? It was triple digits in Florida but the NE hits 90 and the world grinds to a halt. Kinda like when the south gets 1/8 inch if snow

Sorry it took me so long, but I am finally here!
Hurray for the girls trip! Boo to not feeling too great. Hopefully, it passes quickly, and you and your dd can get back to your adventures.

@Songbird76 , are you feeling better? Hoping that whatever made you feel ill was just a 24-hour thing, and is over by now.
I just looked at him like he had three heads and said "no." Hope he felt like a moron.
I'm feeling better. I had acid reflux the whole day, but I'm ok now. Our last day at Universal was hard... We missed Shasta and Addi and it was super hot and muggy and because it was Saturday, it was Busy so wait times were longer. Even with the express pass, there weren't many rides we were willing to wait for.
Went back to Toothsome for lunch. So good. I'm a fan.
That's Mint milkshake, fried zucchini, chicken bourgignon, and warm chocolate almond bread with almond butter.
Headed to the Hogwarts express, bought a sweatshirt to replace the one that's falling apart, then tried to do Seuss land because it's not as busy, but it was starting to storm and everything closed. We left and called my friends to come get us.

We are headed to Disney today thank God. I love my friend Denise, but her husband drives me up a wall with mansplaining. He second guessed everything I wanted to get at Walmart. "Are you sure that's what you want? I'm not sure you'll like the taste of that water...see,there's spring water and purified water, and the spring water can have different minerals in it that change the taste. And you had a size of bottle on there that I'm not familiar with... Are you sure that's the size you want? Is that enough? " just let me buy my dang water! At lunch, where I invited them to a steakhouse to thank them for letting us stay, "I'd avoid the sirloin If I was you." Me,
confused: " Why? " " Well see, it's a lower quality cut of meat, and there are some cuts that have what they call marbling, which are like little veins of fat that give it flavor and... " I stopped listening. Denise was like, "she grew up in Wyoming. She knows what kind of steak she likes." so then we ordered the sirloin and he rolls his eyes and sighs and says "okay" like "I tried to tell you not to do that. You'll be sorry." The sirloin was delicious. When we couldn't find an item at Walmart, he says we should ask customer service and we get to the CS desk and he says "okay, you just go up to that lady there and tell her what you want and she'll look it up for you." like I've never been to a store and didn't know how a service desk works.
There are a lot more things like that, but that's just as sampling to illustrate why I can't wait to leave. He even tried to tell my daughter she should have gotten norplant instead of the pill because we "live in Europe! It's illegal here, but YOU could get it". I'm like, this is what the doctor recommended to manage her cramps and it works, so why get norplant just because it's legal in Europe and not in the US? What she has works for her. That's what matters. Why he's giving medical advice when he has no medical background, I don't know. Probably because we are just women who couldn't possibly understand our own bodies and health.
In the schedule today: check in to all-star music and an ADR at wine bar George.

Glad you're finally getting to Disney where you'll feel the magic happen and your friend's husband won't be driving you crazy!
