A Sparks ‘LIVE’ Universal Christmas Adventure- December 2021

[Sparksy72]

This is a food report with a twist as I’m not actually travelling this time, it will be my husband Adam and my son Cooper. I know we all love a Dining Report so I thought I would report on their behalf.

This was only booked a few weeks ago and has changed several times. You can find the ore-trip report here:

Today they popped to Manchester Airport for their pre-departure tests, they used Randox and their negative results were back within 30 mins which was fantastic. They had a quick lunch of KFC (hot and fresh was the feedback) at Terminal 1 before making their way to The Clayton Hotel.

With the boys moving their flights to two days earlier (due to the upcoming changes) they will be staying at The Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista for 2 nights. They have reservations at Cityworks (first time visiting) and also House of Blues (an old favourite) at Disney Springs. Then moving on to The Rosen Plaza for a night where Miller’s Ale House is a must visit before moving to The Hard Rock Hotel for 3 nights. Finishing up back at the Rosen Plaza for another 3 nights. There was no availability for the Universal Hotels due to the late booking so I-drive was the next best choice.

You can expect trips to Cracker Barrell, Dennys, Longhorns, Culvers, Chick fil a, Cold Stone Creamery and a few more. This is a Universal and Seaworld trip, whereby we were allowed to extend our Annual Passes from 2020. So it is basically a mini trip to use up ‘about to be expired’ travel vouchers. We are looking forward to a whole family visit in August 2022 with both Disney and Universal parks on our itinerary.
