So recently I became a licensed pharmacist. So while most of my classmates took amazing vacation trips before they took the license exams, I studied. But now that I'm licensed, I kinda wanna take a quick 3-4 day vacation trip. Should have taken a vacation before being licensed/employed, but whatever. I am thinking of going skydiving and then a quick 2-4 day trip to Orlando Universal Studios. The issue is that everyone is now working full time, so coordinating is tough. The skydiving part, doing solo is fine. But going solo Orlando Universal Studios, will it be a bad idea? Im a big Harry Potter fan, and always wanted to visit the theme park. Thoughts?
 
You will enjoy it, but you will have to buy a park hopper ticket because Harry Potter is in both parks. You take the Hogwart Express between the two. My wife does solo Disney trips and seems to enjoy it. Although we also go as a family yearly its nice to go do whatever you want. No need to figure out what/where everyone wants to ride, eat, rest, etc. My kids can never agree on rides and dining. I'm banking on a solo trip myself at some point where I can snorkel and kick back on a beach.

Cabana Bay or Sapphire Falls for a few bucks more, if you want to stay on Universal property. We stay at my parents timeshare. If you don't get motion sickness the Transformers ride is pretty cool, it's like a imax/virtual coaster. There is a Men in Black ride that's good too. I'm a coaster guy, so I like the Harry Potter coaster.
 
I went to Universal LA a couple weeks ago. It was fun. Harry Potter Land was nice, but I didn't care for the ride, it was the only ride that made me sick. I guess the opening of the ride was delayed because it was making people sick, guess they didn't fix it :/

Thoughts on the Hard Rock Hotel? I chk n its only a 25 min walk from there to Universal Studios. So excited. Yeah def open to rides, its just that Ill b going by myself n i feel so awkward sitting next to a stranger on the ride. the hogswart express, can i get a cabin all by myself? open to other people in there with me, just feels so awkward being the odd man out

lol theres only so many expensive fish u can buy before u run out of ideas. only reason why i got into clouded archers was because i felt bore with monster fish (i have ITs, NTTs, NGTs, VATFs, aros, tigs, BD rays). lately being getting into more of the community fish. gotta go on vacation n enjoy life before i start saving money
 
Hard Rock is probably even closer than that. Last time I did some solo rides at Disney I got to sit next to some young chippy with her ta-ta's busting out.
