THE HOTEL
We stayed at the Cabana Bay Beach Resort, which was themed 50s/60s. So they had great music pumping through the lobby and the decor was super cute. It's one of Universal's on-site hotels and apparently it's fairly new. I really liked it though and would definitely recommend it!

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS (The non HP parts)
There's more to Universal Studios than Harry Potter. I know, it's hard to imagine but we did see other things.

 |
| Parade! One of the pogo stick guys danced with me for a bit. |

 |
| E.T. Ride - more underwhelming than I remembered |
 |
| The line for the Shrek 4D movie |
 |
