We always rent a villa for most (if not all) of our Orlando trips, and the pool is a major reason why! 💦 On our ‘days off’ or when we finish the parks early, being able to jump straight into our own heated pool is honestly the best feeling - no sharing, just us!

This year’s villa (booked through Clickstay) had the most gorgeous lake view, and we ended up with a little gang of birds and ducks who visited us every day. The kids were obsessed with Daisy and Donald!

We also love having a full kitchen - breakfasts before we head out, loads of space for snacks, cold drinks, frozen bottles and ice lollies. And the kids having their own bedrooms makes such a difference… it just feels like home, but in the sunshine. This villa also had a huge lounge, so we watched movies in the evenings when we weren’t out late in the parks!

I’ll pop the link to this villa in the comments if you’re interested in staying here!

Ste did the Halloween Horror Nights - Universal Orlando RIP Tour in 2025, so here’s a quick look at the included-food side of things, because it’s something we couldn’t find much info on beforehand!

The tour starts with a buffet at Café La Bamba - proper “fuel for the night”. Plenty of choice: salads, pasta, chicken, beef, veggies, breads and desserts. There were also some themed items, and you could have literally as much or as little as you wanted!

The Epic Universe limited‑edition Coke bottles were also free‑flowing for RIP guests. Soft drinks and bottled water were available for free all night, which is ideal when you’re walking miles and screaming your head off! The RIP tour also stopped at various bars and food stalls if anyone wanted to buy special-edition HHN foods or alcohol!

We have said a few times on here now, but this was a great experience and was WELL WORTH the $500 outlay if you're only able to visit HHN for a single night!

As we continue our summer plans, another park we can reveal we will be hitting for the first time is Canada's Wonderland 🤩

We are flying to Toronto, and will be having a few days in the area between the start and the end of the trip, including Niagra Falls and maybe even the famous Burger King coaster 😆

We are so excited for rides like Behemoth, Leviathan and Yukon Striker but...what do we need to know?

I know we have lots of amazing followers in Canada and the USA, and you are always so welcoming and helpful! We have been travelling the USA for more years than I care to remember, travelling the entire west coast and East coast and now its time to go north to south from Toronto all the way to Tennessee, and we cant wait.

Are Fast Passes worth it, do they operate single rider lines and what are the best hotels to stay at near the park?

Come and join us over on our YouTube channel for a day at Universal Orlando Resort as we have a chill day at the studios.

This park is a park of nostalgia for me! I came here not long after it first opened in 1990, and have been coming ever since.

There have been so many changes - no more King Kong, Jaws or Twister, but the nostalgia is still here...and feels like it has never changed, especially when riding classics like E.T.

I really love this park, and this was the first time visiting as a family of 4 with Eden....and the first time as Thrills and Food and it didnt disappoint 🤩

Hit the link in our comments and let us know what you think about the park that has been so influential to other movie-themed parks today.

📽BRAND NEW VLOG!✨Universal Studios Florida in October! 🎃 Crowd Levels, Shows, Food, Rides & Our Honest Family Review

Spend a full day with us at Universal Orlando Resort in October 2025 as we explore some of the rides, food, shows, interactive wanding, and shopping in the Universal Studios Florida park - plus all the HHN daytime vibes the park had to offer!

This visit was all about slowing down and enjoying the non‑ride attractions, from street entertainment and character meets, to Wizarding World magic.... with plenty of time for browsing the shops too! Because we knew we’d be returning later in the trip with Express Passes, we kept the day relaxed and simply fit in whatever else we could along the way.

If you’re planning a chilled Universal day or visiting with kids who love shows and interactive experiences, this vlog gives you an honest look at crowd levels, wait times, and what an October day in the park really feels like.

Another big AVIKTAS update 🐍

So as it was mentioned last time, the entry and exit ramps have been installed, and construction of the station is continuing.

There is more scaffolding that has gone next to the bridge which houses the catering units, furthering the likelihood we may see theming on here, or something to improve its aesthetic appearance!

The gondola is no longer resting on the pallets and the biggest thing I noticed are what appears to be big gold air gates visible.

There is still a lot to do with the area, but seeing little progress on every visit is exciting 🤩

No vlog as to be honest it would be the most boring vlog ever, but when significant changes happen we will be there 😄

Are you excited to see the end result of AVIKTAS?

Another pleasant meal we had in Orlando was at Applebee's Grill + Bar!

This one was literally around the corner from our villa, so it was an easy choice - and somehow we don’t think we’ve ever actually been to an Applebee’s before. There are so many similar grill chains in Orlando that this one must’ve just slipped past us over the years!

Robyn went for the NFL promo (now called the Ultimate Trio): 3 starters turned into a platter for $14.99. She picked warm pretzel sticks, buffalo boneless wings and fried pickles… all really good and very filling. Everyone had to jump in and help her finish.

I had the shrimp - a generous portion with fries, coleslaw and dips. Casper went for a hot dog and enjoyed it. Eden’s pizza was a bit undercooked, and as she wasn’t that hungry anyway she ended up just eating the veggie sticks. Not ideal but… 4‑year‑olds 😂

Overall, a solid, easy meal and one we’d happily add into the rotation in future!

This year is going to a huge year for Pleasure Beach Resort as they celebrate 130 years of operation!! 🤯

The park will also be opening the brand new Intamin gyroswing AVIKTAS this spring, and they have also promised a year of celebrations and events 🥳

With a month to go until the Nickelodeon Land half term event starts, we can't wait to be back in the park.

We cant wait to share all the updates, the fun we are going to have this year and bring you with us every step of the way.

As always we intend on being in our home park most weeks for date days, provide updates including food, merchandise from the awesome Blackpool Pleasure Beach Shopping and the new shows for the year too.

It's going to be an awesome year 😁What are you looking forward to, and what would you like us to cover this year?

What do you think of my hat? 😆😆😆😆 Now that Stranger Things has finished, I thought i would share a little throwback to when Stranger Things had a scare maze at HHN 🤩

We have loved watching Stranger Things, and seeing it merged into a scare maze was just awesome 👌
