Hi there! We are Disney veterans, and for the first time in almost 40 years are headed to Universal Orlando in a couple of weeks. My kids (7 and 9) are OBSESSED with Harry Potter, and I am too I am so excited to take them to the Wizarding World. I'm a little iffy on taking a trip to Orlando and NOT doing a Disney day, but we may try to sneak one in.

Please tell me all I need to know. How is Universal different from Disney? What are your favorite rides, meals, experiences, etc... What do we need to know about parking, and passes, and everything?! I am trying to go into this with low expectations...I know Disney and I know what to expect. Universal I have no idea, other than what I've googled.
I am looking at getting annual passes- its the same price as a 2 day park to park ticket, and that way we can go every day, and come back!

Thank you!!
