Hi,
I'm just starting to research a trip to Universal for this year's Easter break. Although it will be busy, we've done Disney once and I'm swayed by the advantage of Express Pass through an on-site hotel. Is it worth it to go at this time? Also, my kids are 8 years old (one of which who is a big HP fan). I'm not big on roller coasters but loved the motion rides at DW. Our kids like rides but not necessarily roller coasters. Is US/IOA worth it for a family like us? Are there enough motion rides, water rides, etc for us to choose from? I can't quite seem to get a perspective on Park size in relation to Disney. How many days would we need?? If we were at the hotel 5 days is 3 park days enough during Easter week? The pool is as much a part of our vacation so that is also very important to us. Also, does Universal run shuttles from the airport to hotels? I'd love to hear anyone's/everyone's perspective to get a better understanding. From what I've gathered it seems to be a much more "relaxing" theme park than DW, although we enjoyed that too. Thanks so much!
