Whilst we do have a RIP tour booked, which provides guided, no-queuing access to all the houses booked fir this evening… it is a bit fast paced. So, we book an extra night to absorb the atmosphere, visit the scare zones, shows and general drink cocktails and watch people jump out of their skins. A few pics follow – it’s […]
These are much better than Krispy Kreme…. In the elevator heading back to our room a woman commented how good they are. Yes, when you factor in the flights to get here, these $10000 donuts are still good! And when combined with the sort of Fanta which is probably illegal in Europe….
Booked a table at “Cowfish” in CityWalk using the universal app. Universal provide usable wifi for free across all parks and resorts. I guess this is a necessity if you want people to mobile order food etc and probably provides a means to monitor crowd levels too. CityWalk is Universals leisure and retail complex. A means to extract even more […]
Decided to do the tours back-to-front this time – doing the behind the scenes before the actual HHN RIP tour. Whilst this runs the risk of losing some of the shock/surprise element, we discovered last time that we missed some of the details and storyline. By doing the tour first, we get to watch out for some key features… at […]
Early start – in the lounge to grab a couple of coffees at 7am. The lounge offers a complimentary continental style breakfast with pastries, cereals, etc. plenty of peanut butter and jelly (jam). Their grape jam is very nice. Plus donuts and muffins. A couple of bagels and plenty of coffee, then a quick walk to, what was, the Blue […]
Liked this hotel previously… but it hasn’t worked out as well this time. Despite paying for a Club Level Room with lounge access we have ended up on the 6th floor. Club lounge is on the 7th. Just nowhere near as convenient to pop in for a coffee etc. Room is fine – getting a bit tired and in need […]
Having arrived too late for dinner last night, we were looking forward to breakfast… Ended up being lunch at Denny’s!
We express checked out of the room and headed down to the shuttle bus. The driver asked which airline we needed and I said I just needed to get to the rental car centre. He pointed across the road. Firstly, I was surprised the hotel was so close to the rental centre… I though it was an Amtrak station opposite […]
Hotel was fine for an overnight stay post flight. However, the absence of late night food options was a pain. BIG late breakfast planned!
Wide awake at 6:30am. One of life’s travel challenges is figuring out how to use the hotel room coffee machine. This one was a simple single cup filter which is ideal for brewing a loose approximation of coffee. Once you have added the powdered non-dairy creamer you get a cardboard cup of finest beige – the Conde Nasty 18th best […]
