| A lot depends on the age of your kids. We don't have little ones but we still take a walk around Dr Seuss and have been on a couple of rides there. Our family of adults could spend all day in each of the parks as they want to go on the rides such as spiderman again and again.
Believe it or not, we had not been to Disney (visiting Orlando for best part of 20 years) until this year, and to be honest, not overwhelmed by it all really. Although I can certainly see the attraction.
Give it a go and try the two. You can at least get a feel for the place (as we did with Disney parks).

| we love IOA - but when there are no queues we have found that we can get round the park in half a day and then pop into Universal afterwards.
We normally don't go to the shows, but we do all the other rides that are open.
We were really pleased that when we went in Feb Popeye and Bluto's Water ride was open..
It's been closed on our last 3 visits for maintainence |

| Just laughing my head off there at the speed of your visit to the park. I bet my sister has cut your time. If anyone can find her way round the parks, any parks, its my sister. On big family holidays I need my best running shoes just to keep up with her. Though all said and done she got us round everything.  |

| | Did not think to ask, but then, we will not be going back, so no point. we only went that time, because we had never been before, and we had a 15 year old with us. |
