Orlando


I'm going to keep the details on Orlando pretty short. Its been awesome. We have a 14 day pass to the two Universal Studio parks, Wet and Wild, SeaWorld, Aquatica and Busch gardens. We have only been in Orlando ten days but it was so worth getting the 14 day pass. Some of the highlights were a squirrel jumping on Brian's lap in order to get chips, the sea lion show at Seaworld, Hogsmeade and the Harry Potter castle in Universal Island of Adventure (wow they went all out on it, it feels like you are really there), the Karken rollercoast in SeaWorld in the front seat, the Chinese Fireball Triwizard ride in the front seat, the Men in Black ride and Simpsons ride in Universal Studio, the absolutely giant turtle in Busch gardens, the hungry stingrays trying to rub us and nibble our fingers Kumba in Busch gardens and the tigers, kangaroos and giant crocodile in Busch gardens. We also played some crazy golf (18 holes is great fun, 36 is too much crazy golf). I thought the Aquatica was a better waterpark then Wet and Wild and they have the coolest dolphins I have ever seen in my life but I'm not one for water parks. Aquatica also has a few fish features and a beach with the wave pool. America is terrible for food. Food which is really bad for you is available the whole time in over large quantities. We tried to buy fruit and eat health but it was so hard and we ended up eatting a lot of junk food. We have been doing really well up to now on the holiday eatting very well and exercising. The one thing to be said for the theme parks is that they are exhausting and we spent full days at them so hopefully we will burn off a good bit of the stuff we ate while here.
