I'll try not to keep you in suspense too much longer, I'm nearly finished writing it up.

I do love them, looking forward to lots more next year. Not the rain though, it was a bit of a pest this year.

You must have been wet after all those goes on bilge rat barges. It's such a fun ride though. There's no part of you that's not wet after 1 go.

The Hagrids experience was a rollercoaster and that was just the queuing. How lovely to get your golden ticket and then the helpful front desk giving you extra time before check out the next day.

So sad about Hagrid’s, I’d have been so disappointed but how lovely of them to be offering the ruby passes.
Me too I was thinking wow, did she get them to what's app the photo? Then I realised I was being stupid, I can blame the jet lag though

We were soaked, last 2 trips though I’ve just worn a swim suit under my clothes for the water ride morning then planned to just go straight back to the pool, one of the best perks of being onsite with express pass. I love riding barges over and over.

Now you are an annual passholder do you think you’ll stay longer at Universal?

I did notice one or 2 did stay reasonably dry this time as the pouring water as you go up the wooden hill wasn’t working.!

Hagrids was a huge bonus and the girl at hard rock was one of the loveliest team members ever.

Maybe I need to rephrase the bit about hot dog hall of fame, it’s making me look way more dedicated to the food reporting cause than I really am!

Oh my goodness, that rain! Pity it spoiled your pool plans a bit. That was so lovely getting the ruby passes for Hagrid, and what an exceptional receptionist making sure you have time to get the use of it in the morning. Great service from universal.

I suppose without the rain we would never have ended up on Hagrids in the first place.

The last few times we've stayed at Universal I've felt their service has just got better and better.

We were over the moon with the passes and the receptionist.

Such a shame about the rain, but you didn't let it dampen your spirits

How amazing getting those passes for Hagrids! I really hope you get to ride it tomorrow.

Kudos to the CM who managed to get you a late checkout too. Another great day ... also just realised this is the July report ... I still need to read the April one xx

It was pretty rubbish, first holiday in ages where the rain has impacted on our plans a fair bit. However, without the rain there would have been no Hagrids for us.

It was all very exciting even getting into the line for Hagrids never mind getting the passes...

The lady at Hard Rock was lovely, she was genuinely excited for us which was lovely.

At least the April report is finished as opposed to this one... I've still got yours on my list as well, I hate it when real life gets in the way of my Dibb reading!

It was definitely a day of getting wet, shame about the rain. So close with Hagrids but at least you got a ruby ticket.
