Universal Studio - Orlando

Once we arrived in Orlando, the first week of December, we found the Thousand Trails campground, we got the motor home all set up and hooked up, and within 20 minutes the rain started. It rained and rained. We stayed inside the coach for 3 days waiting for the rain to stop and the Florida sun to come out.



We decided to go to Universal Studios first. We had a good time there, we went on some of the rides and checked out some shows and took lots of pictures. The free tickets for the Military Active and Retired were for 6 days, we will only use 2 days, because we also have the Disney World passes that expire on the 23rd of December.



There are lots of things to do at Universal Studios. Universal has two parks, one is for the movies and Universal Studio exhibits. The other park is an amusement park with lots of rides. We spent one day at each of the two parks.

We loved the Blues Brothers performance, it was lots of fun.

Check out these rides, they looked like lots of fun, but they looked wet too, so we took pictures and laughed at the other people who were very wet.



We went to a few shows and had a great time. We watched the Macy's parade, it was lots of fun. Joe was even asked if he would like to be in the parade, but he said no thanks.









We had a lot of fun at Universal and we are very thankful to them for this offer to the Military.
