It was incredibly close between DC and Seaworld but Seaworld just pipped it due to there being something for all my children to do. Two are too young for the dolphin swim.

I chose Seaworld, but keep in mind that I have never been to Universal.

It has to be Seaworld, but it may change after our next trip, as it will be our first time at Discovery Cove!:wink:

Sea World is my favorite, as I have mentioned a few other times. www.seaworld.com. I can't imagine Florida without it and they also have them in San Antonio, Texas (except the biggest sea creatures), and San Diego, California. I have some stuffed Shamu's and others of his stuffed fishy friends.
I think a trip to visit the sea creatures at Sea World will guarantee that the UK guests come to Florida every year.

I chose Busch Gardens, because I remember it left a lasting impression.. of course I havent been to any parks outside Disney in over a decade.... so.. might change my mind when I actually visit them :)

I loved Busch Gardens - with the animals and heaps of roller coaters. The day we went there was hardly anyone there which made it much more enjoyable!!

Our budget couldn't stretch to all of us going but DH took our 2 girls whilst I took DS to Uni Studios & IOA.
I think DH and 2DD's were just expecting the Dolphin swim and were surprised (and delighted) at ALL the other areas....the aviary, the lazy river snorkelling, the beach...........DH said it really did feel like they were on an actual paradise island and it felt quite odd when leaving to realise they were actually in Orlando!
The buffet lunch (included in the price) also went down very well....got the thumbs up from all 3! The DC staff were particularly good too, very helpful, chatty but not pushy with the photo sales etc.

Universal Studio's for me! Been a fan ever since i visited in its inaugural year back in '90, its changed a lot but for a movie fan like myself, always enjoy visiting :)
