Our fourth day of vacation/third day of Universal was a combined day. We checked out a few more rides and re-rode our favorites. We had more flavors of Butterbeer, a few more snacks, another giant donut....all the good stuff! And it was perfect weather! That's a big bonus for a family from Chicago that in October fears any moment could be a snowstorm and that we won't see above freezing for 6 months!
William was so excited to spent some souvenir money on a "concoction!" It was a Fire Potion that was watermelon flavored. He loved it. What he didn't care much about was the wand selection and use. Again, frugal accountant mom was just fine with buying a $4 potion instead of a $40 wand!
The talking fountain in Universal Studios was one of my very favorites! Highly recommend for anyone visiting to stop by and interact with it - or watch it talk to other people! Very clever commentary.
I will say that we enjoyed our time at Universal (especially the sunshine), but it didn't have the "magic" of Disney. Nor was the food as good. Happy we experimented with Universal to put our minds at ease, but our hearts belong to Disney!
Not sure how this last picture made it into the mix, but I'm going to keep it in to remind me that my kiddo loves creating Lego Star Wars battle scenes (and army men battle scenes) which I don't showcase often enough. Love his creativity.
