Fall break

We ended up having the very best Fall break but we weren’t sure if it was going to happen at all the week before! GJ and I had been planning a surprise trip to Universal and Disney for the kids in honor of Spencer’s birthday! He’s always wanted to go to Universal and we thought this was the perfect time. Well, it was the perfect time…but Hurricane Milton had some other ideas! It was a stressful week watching Milton’s expected path wobble all over the coast – we didn’t want it to hit Naples or Orlando! Thankfully it all worked out. Milton moved on through by Thursday and we were able to make our flight to Orlando Friday morning! On the plane by 7:30am…

In GJ’s car by 10:30am…

and at Universal by 11:30am!

Can’t beat that! We had the best time using the fast passes we got because we stayed at a Universal hotel. We really never waited in lines and got to do many of the rides over and over. Our favorite was definitely the Jurassic Park VelociCoaster! The most fun roller coaster I’ve ever ridden! Samantha made it on all the rides the first day except for Hulk – she wasn’t quite tall enough. We loved walking through Simpsons land…

and Harry Potter world!

Butter beer got a thumbs up!

All the Despicable Me stuff was fun too!

After a full day we had dinner at Margaritaville at City Walk and walked away with some good headpieces!!

The most fun day with lots more fun to come!
