A Day at Universal Studios Orlando

Before heading to Universal Studios Orlando, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the attractions. Start with the Studio and then move to Adventure. If you have a Quick Pass, you might even have time to enjoy your favorite rides twice. On days like Christmas Eve, the lines aren't too bad compared to other parks. The longest wait was 200 minutes for the 'Meet Grinch' photo op, which is very popular among Americans. Instead, you might want to spend that time enjoying the Jurassic Park ride nearby. Be prepared to get wet on the Jurassic Park ride, and drying off without a raincoat can be expensive. Some visitors found the drying service pricey and opted to air dry instead. Harry Potter fans will be delighted with attractions like the dragon that breathes fire every ten minutes. The Hogwarts Express train ride is a favorite, especially with the owl at the station that rolls its eyes. The Mummy ride is said to be quite scary, so proceed with caution. The red and green roller coasters are located in separate parks, so experiencing one is sufficient. Always check what the long lines are for, as many visitors love to queue for photo ops with characters like the Grinch, Transformers, and Simpsons. For dining, the Three Broomsticks in the Harry Potter area of Adventure is recommended for its ambiance and decent food. The app-based order and pick-up system can be inefficient during busy times, and finding a seat can be challenging. There are many Indian visitors, similar to the situation in Canada. Despite the temperatures being in the teens, it can still feel quite cold. #UniversalStudiosOrlando #TravelTips #ThemeParkAdventure
