| I'd do a few days towards the end of your trip at Universal, as the crowds from Christmas should be over by then. Their onsite resorts are beautiful, and so close to the parks - you can walk to everything from there! When you stay at a Universal resort, you show your room key to the ride attendant at the attraction entrance and you can enter the Express line - over and over! No waiting in regular lines for hotel guests! It's awesome! Your children can ride almost everything at Universal, except for the Hulk and Dueling Dragon coasters which have a 54" height restriction. Dr. Doom's Fearfall has a 52" restriction which would leave the youngest out. But there is still plenty to do there. I'd suggest reading through the threads in this forum to get an idea of what Universal has to offer. I'd also suggest looking for a Universal guidebook if you don't already have one. There's a good one in the Passporter store. As far as Sea World and Busch Gardens, you can purchase a flex ticket which offers admission to Universal, Sea World and Busch Gardens that may be the best thing for you if you want to see them all. Good luck!

| If you are in Orlando, Universal! There is a good internet special on now for the 2 park unlimited 7 day admission. We stayed 1 night at The Hard Rock (to get 2 days of express pass priv.) then moved to The Doubletree Universal, which was very nice & a 20 min walk. They also had very good shuttle service. I found the halls at Hard Rock very loud, sound really echos so didn't sleep well! Bush Gardens is great too, but it's in Tampa, about 1 1/2 hr drive from Orlando.
