We
left and headed South on Saturday June 4th. Our original plan was to
leave on Sunday but once we read the fine print on our Universal Passes (that
we got at Costco) it said that your first day could be a block out day. We originally
thought we could only go on Monday and Tuesday but since we could go on Sunday
and the crowds should be low since it's a block out day we decided to leave a
day early. It was so exciting getting on the road. Our kids are not
the best road trip kind of kids so to make the time go quick I bought a little
something for them to open every hour. We also did a pit stop for lunch
at the almost half way part.
We didn't have a hotel
booked for Saturday night. It was fun being on an adventure and driving
around trying to find a fun place to stay. We stayed about 20 minutes out
of Hollywood so that we didn’t have to pay parking but were still close to make
it early into the park the next day. We came upon a gorgeous Marriott
Suites. My parents had given us a gift card for Christmas and it allowed
us to get to stay at a really nice place with an awesome pool.
So excited to be in SoCal!
That
night we decided on going to a fun tippenyaki place for dinner. They had
such a beautiful koi pond that surrounded the restaurant.
The
show was really fun and we all (except Aubrey) really enjoyed the dinner
It
was neat because we had our own table of four. Normally at these kind of restaurants you need to share the table with another family but here they had tables just for four.
That night we
went back to our comfy hotel and got ready for our first big day in Universal
Studios.
