Simply Mouse Vacations by Melanie

We visited the parks this morning before heading back home. We had a great trip and I feel like I gathered a lot of information to pass on to you!

02/09/2024

Last full day in the parks. We might try to go for a bit on the morning before heading home. The rain put a damper on our plans but we adjusted and made the best of it and I achieved my goal of riding Hagrids.

Late night dinner last night at Toothsome Chocolate Emporium

Today we spent the day at Volcano Bay. 🌋. I didn’t get many pictures but we had a great time! We probably picked a bad time to do being Labor Day weekend but we used our time wisely and took advantage of the Tapu Tapu system. I absolutely recommend going to Volcano Bay when visiting Universal.

Wow, it’s been a long day. We started with early entry and are just ending our night at 1:00 am.
We were able to ride quite a few rides today and enjoy some good food.
We decided last night that we wanted to buy tickets for opening night of Holloween Horror nights so we did. It was a learning experience and I’m glad we did it but I have some thoughts. I made it through exhausted but not once terrified which surprised me. 😆
Tomorrow we plan on sleeping in and heading to Volcano Bay water park.

30/08/2024

What a day! We started at 4:30 this morning and are still awake at 9:30.
Before we left for this trip, we were able to add on an extra two day park ticket for free so we took advantage of that by heading to the parks when we arrived. We were able to take a shuttle to CityWalk and walk to the parks. We rode a handful of rides and shopped around and are ending the day at the pool with pizza.
Tomorrow we will be taking advantage of early entry at Islands of adventure and then will be heading to volcano Bay waterpark.
We are adding on a fun surprise tomorrow night that I’m a little hesitant about. Stay tuned….

Please feel free to reach out with emergent questions. I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Tomorrow I will be heading back to Universal Orlando with this kid. He sure has grown in a couple years.
This time we will be staying on property and having a total immersive experience.
We have the 3 day park to park tickets with 2 days added for free!
We will be visiting Volcano Bay for the first time which is super exciting.
My plan is to have quality time with Evan, my bestie and her son while there but I definitely want to try to keep you all updated while I am there. We will see how that goes.
If there is anything you want me to specifically check out while there, please let me know!

I would like to talk to you about Viking Cruise
They offer RIver, Ocean and Expedition experiences on board elegant state-of-the art ships. They consider themselves the "thinking person's" cruise. This is not your typical cruise but it is sure to be an amazing one.
They have smaller ships which allows them to get closer into their destinations.
The meals, beer and wine with meals and shore excursions are included with the price of the cruise.
If you would like to know more, let me know

Congrats to the D family 🥳
They just booked their pre cruise stay at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside in the Royal Guest Room. I think their princesses are going to love this room.
Pre Disney Cruise Stays at Walt Disney World Resorts is a great idea! We can arrange Disney transportation to pick you up from your resort and take you to the port. It's super simple!
