Thanks for the advice.

(If we go to Universal, I'll definitely do more research, but I will
also definitely be filling my waist-pack with snack bars, just in case.)

I did read the whole thing, and thank you! This is the first review of
IoA I've ever seen where I'm sure I would have reacted the same way you
did, to everything. Usually IoA reports are from people who seem to be
not, uh, critical? Are we critical? I guess so. And maybe that's not
a bad thing.

But you've cemented my decision to not bother with Universal until we
are either Florida residents, or we've been to Disney so much in a year
we're bored and ready for something different. And then I'm not going
unless it's off off season. And then I still won't expect much.

Sorry, Universal. You are the sad red-headed step-child of Orlando
theme parks.

Here's hoping the new Legoland/Cypress Gardens will be the pretty little
sister! :-)

Don't let it make you homophonic.

You do realize that Legoland is owned by the same people that own
Universal Orlando, Seaworld and Busch Gardens, right?

Really? Hmm. That doesn't bode well, then.
