just caught up, it's interesting to read a non disney report, our 2013 trip is meant to be a budget one, but I don't think I can leave Disney out yet, it'll be our 3rd trip and I'm still Disney obssessed! I am enjoying reading about your coupons and budget tips!

Trip report now completed

Another great Trip report, thanks Dixon's

I think you are my fav trip report writers, the combo of your DD being so cute and photogenic and the lots of food pics you post make them a joy to read

At least when we get back next year, i can console myself with knowing that you may have a new trip report for us soon.

Thanks for reading and all your nice comments.

Are you going to do one for your honeymoon trip?

[Seaworldfan]

Yup plan to.. need to do better than my last one as i only managed a few days of that before it kind of died out

I'm still reading. It's very interesting as my DW is trying to avoid the Disney thing also. Me & our teens are going to have to do a lot of convincing that a little Disney wouldn't do any harm.

We've booked the Enclave Suites (Oct 2012), thinking it'll be more convenient for 14 day Universal pass, with the regular Wet&Wild breaks. I notice you purchased that pass but you only used 3 days worth. I plan to buy four adult 3-park bonus tickets from Orlando-ticket-deals (£111 each), with the expectation of using them more frequently. Too much?

I also see you didn't do Wonderworks/Magic show, on I-Drive. If anyone has experiences of that excursion, I would welcome their advice.

We had 7 day tickets for universal that were unused from a previous trip and used them for 3 days. DD had a 14 day 2 park ticket.

Could have maybe done another day. Was v quiet when we went so we easily did all we wanted. We also didn't want to do the bigger rides like hulk, rip ride rocket.

We weren't interested in wet and wild but can imagine it would be popular with your teens.

Remember parking is $15 a time and we find it quiet a trek into the universal parks - not so easy to pop in for an hour ot two.

Sorry have never done wonderworks.

We found doing DTD and MNSSHP a good compromise to give us a taste of disney. The trouble with disney tickets is they are very expensive for just a few days.

Have a great trip. We are back in Oct 2012 and just doing disney.

Just read your whole trippy

I am well impressed with your dedication to couponing, it mustve saved you £££ in the end! Did you plan out each restaurant and then get the coupons or the other way around?

Your daughter is so like mine, she even had the same dresses as yours in a few of your photos, and the seaworld Barbie & build -a bear!

Very good report, lotsve info on places/things weve never even thought of going/doing before.

THANKS!
