looks good, i might put the rest day in between the two magic kingdom days and swap one IOA round with the universal so you dont do two days in a row on anything. thats just my preference thats keeps it varied. Also, maybe do magic kingdom fireworks on your last evening, its a really neci way to end the holiday.

Hi Helen,

We are flying from Heathrow on the 27th via Washington Dulles.

We have all agreed (the woman anyway) that we didnt have enough time to do everything so unfirtunately Seaworld was dropped.

You have a fab 1st time as well!!:) :)

Seaworld is fantastic Donna i really think you should try and see it.Seaworld is included in the 4 park flexiticket but i think you said you already had tickets.If you can go do try you won't be sorry honest.

Hi,

I definitely wouldn't miss Seaworld if I were you, it's my favourite park. I also wouldn't have two consecutive days in the same park, but that's just personal preference. On our first night we can't usually be bothered to go out to eat so we usually get takeout.

I would have made the same comment as evie about not doing the same park 2 days running. Also, I agree with the comments about Sea World - it is great and tends to be a more relaxing day than some of the other parks as it's mostly shows.

I think it's a good idea to avoid the parks on Memorial Day ;)

Have you got any Star Wars Fans in your group?

All of the weekends you are there (we're there too!) are Star WArs Weekends which are great fun!

[ClaireB]

Would highly recommend Sea World and notice that you have 3 days at Uninversal & IOA. I Will say you can do them in two days, a day each and because you have extra days you can pop along late afternoon/early evening after shopping to do fava again.

Have a great time

I'd echo everyones advice about SeaWorld - lovley park:D Also, you havent any water parks on your list.................we use days at TL and BB as rest days, nice relaxed pace, chill out on the 'lazy rivers', some nice slides and chutes if anyone fancies them

Love Suexx
