It is possible that when you are planning your vacation, you choose as a destination to the city of Orlando in USA. In fact, since the 1970s it has been the most desired tourist destination in the entire state of Florida, thanks to its incredible theme parks, according to the Rough Guide To Florida. Therefore, here I will tell you 7 unexpected moments that happened in Universal Orlando, and REMEMBER enjoy this journey full of adventures: # 1 I feel like a child! You will have to accept the longing of your childhood even though you consider yourself a "Grinch". Watching villains from animated movies, or your favorite TV series characters like SpongeBob, will not only make you feel like a child again. Let your childish spirit take over you. # 2 I already regretted getting on! If you are accompanied by a friend who likes adventures, he will most likely be encouraged to get on each of Universal's amazing roller coasters. But nothing compares to the moment you arrive at Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, and your friend says "it's your turn on the motorcycle". A motorcycle on a roller coaster? Don't think, just do it. # 3 I didn't bring the right clothes! Unless you live in the USA and know what the seasons are like in Florida, you will go with the right clothes to the parks. On the contrary, if you arrive from a Latin country in "winter" (for example), you have a perspective of cold and wind. However, the best thing to do is that you are constantly checking the weather, especially for every day that comes close to your visit. I'm dying of heat! # 4 Butterbeer has no alcohol When you have been walking for a little more than two hours, of course you want to quench your thirst with a cold drink, and what better way to do it with the famous "butterbeer" Hermione G. style. It is a delicious and frothy drink that you will want to drink it in just two sips, but if you thought that like any beer, it has alcohol. Well, the BUTTERBEER is actually a "beer" cream with soda, Butter, drops of vanilla and caramel smell, cream and apple juice, which tastes so sweet. Please take my picture! # 5 My feet hurt! Going in «comfortable shoes» to an amusement park sounds something «logical» and «preventive», but the reality is that you will not imagine how much time your feet hurt, even with good sneakers. And, even if it seems impossible, you'll see girls in heels. Yes, you read that right. The truth is you won't have much time, you have to run to visit all the attractions and rest 5 minutes will be a privilege. The best is distribute your visit in two days. # 6 I must pay for the locker! It sounds useless to have a park entrance ticket and have to pay for the locker. I must tell you what it is, but there is good news: you have the option to pay it or not. The lockers have a small space, similar to a "small drawer", but this one is deep, however, the payment lockers have a wider height and space. One trick you can do if you carry a backpack, is that you first take out some things you have inside, you put the things in the bottom of the drawer, and then introduce your backpack in a spiral. Find out how to save money, and have fun! # 7 All day with wet clothes! Something you should know about Universal Orlando is that in total there are three parks to visit: Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure and Volcano Bay. If you buy the one-day ticket for two parks, and you plan go to the Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls in the Islands of Adventure, get ready to be in wet clothes for the rest of the day If you are a bit picky, try a swimsuit or an extra clothes. There is no doubt that, in addition to living a dream experience at Universal, you find an atmosphere of pure fun, adrenaline, color, noise and lots of movement.
