Ok I will admit it was kind of mean to just post pictures of the plane ride. So today I will get into the real part of the trip!
Day 2- Friday August 6, 2010 Universal Studios - Red Shirts
All 82 of us had matching red shirts and blue shirts. They had a Mickey Mouse head silhouette with “Hobbs Family” on the front and a bigger logo across the back. Our theme for the trip was “Making Magical Memories.” Each day was assigned a shirt color so that when we were at the parks we could spot each other easily. It was really funny how quickly the employees of the parks picked up on the shirts and would make comments about being part of the Hobbs family. We flew in early to enjoy an extra day on the trip. We decided that we would spend the extra time at Universal Studio’s Island of Adventure. We made it just in time to be greeted by the comic supper heroes including Captain America and Spiderman. We took the opportunity to get their signature and a quick photo before child swapping with Mat and Jenny’s family to ride on our fist ride- 3D Spiderman ride. Then we headed over to the Dr. Seuss land to take the kids on some rides their size. We rode One Fish Two Fish, the carousel, and a number of other kid friendly rides.
We left the park around 7:30 and went to Chillies for dinner. It was fairly disastrous event. We went to one chillies that had a hour long wait so we went to another that said that they could seat us as soon as we got there and then we ended up waiting for 15 minutes. Then it took forever for us to get our food. The kids were freezing because they had got all wet as we were leaving the park. We didn’t leave chillies until after 10:00 so it made for a very late night.

I want to go there, looks like they have some cute rides.
Hmm, we had a horrible experience at a Chili's in Florida too! I wonder if it the same one. And I love the matching shirts, you totally didn't blend in at all.
Love the shirt idea. Ohhh how I want to take our girls to Disneyworld!! Maybe we can sneak along next time?? ;)
Wow!! What a fun trip, and this was only the beginning! Can't wait for the rest of the adventure to unfold.
