Halloween is just around the corner! If you are looking for a Halloween store in Universal Studios to check out, then you should totally go to Sahara Traders!
You do not just have to go here for Halloween, Sahara Traders is open all year.
I think this store is really cool because of how decorative it is!
These are some of the shirts you can buy at Sahara Traders.
You can also get these black cat stuffed animals.
This store has some Frankenstein merchandise.
Would you buy the Full Moon Caravan Candles?
I was not expecting to find a vampire in the back of the store.
I would recommend going here if you want to eat a quick breakfast before going to Universal Studios or if you have just come back to your resort after a day in the parks and want a snack.
Tuk Tuk Market does not just have breakfast bars and yogurt, it also has ice cream!
Some ice cream flavors include Peanut Butter, Lemon Sorbet, Strawberry, Mango Sorbet, Dulce de Leche, Nutella, Birthday Cake, Mint Chocolate Chip, Pineapple Sorbet, Chocolate, Coconut, and Vanilla Italiana.
Here is a picture of the creamy shakes and smoothies you can get.
You can also buy pastries.
We decided to get the ice cream.
I had the Birthday Cake Ice Cream. It was delicious!
My dad had the Nutella Ice Cream. He loved it!
My brother had Mint Chocolate Chip. He liked how many chocolate chips were in his ice cream.
Tuk Tuk Market is a great place to go for a quick breakfast or snack!
If you are a big Harry Potter fan, then you just have to go to Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes in Universal!
This is the exact same store from the books that is run by Fred and George Weasley! I decided to look around inside this store for some interesting candies.
Here are some pictures inside of this store:
You can buy a game called Exploding Snap!
You can get Chinese Fortune Sticks.
Here are more games you can buy.
This store even has clothing.
These stuffed animals are adorable!
You might want to be careful eating this candy because it is called Dark Mark Lollipop!
I bought two candies from this store: Nosebleed Nougat and Fever Fudge. Both are fudge. The first one I will be talking about is Nosebleed Nougat.
This is what the candy looks like.
It doesn’t look like a nosebleed!
It was absolutely delicous! I loved how the inside was filled with marshmellow. I also liked the chocolate on the outside.
The next candy is Fever Fudge.
I was surprised that I liked this one becuase I don’t like jelly beans, but I feel like the jelly beans go really well with the fudge.
You should definitly go to Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes!
Loews Royal Pacific Resort is located in Universal Studios and I stayed here in April for the first time!
I really loved the way this resort is themed. You feel like you are on an island.
This resort has many different restaurants including Islands Dining Room, Orchid Lounge & Sushi Bar, Tuk Tuk Market, and Bula Bar & Grille. We went to Islands Dining Room, Tuk Tuk Market, and Bula Bar & Grille. I will be reviewing these places in separate blog articles!
Picture outside of Islands Dining Room.
Here are pictures from the room we stayed in:
I really love these flowers!
Here are pictures from the bathroom.
The best thing about Loews Royal Pacific Resort is how it is walking distance from the Universal Studios parks. We were able to walk from the parks back to our hotel.
This resort also has a pool.
The entrance to the pool.
I would suggest just exploring this resort because there is so much detail that was put into the way this resort looks.
Today we are going to rank 5 spinner attractions at Universal Studios Orlando and Disney World.
5. The Magic Carpets of Aladdin in Magic Kingdom. I feel like the carpet ride isn’t great. When I’m on the ride, I don’t feel too much like I’m on a magic carpet.
Al and Izzy on a magic carpet!
4. Dumbo the Flying Elephant in Magic Kingdom. A cool ride that you can pick your elephant and the elephant flies like Dumbo.
A flying elephant!
3. Kang and Kodos’ Twirl ‘n’ Hurl in Universal Studios Orlando. I like the theme that the monster catches you and makes you do stuff.
Scary! Not really.
2. TriceraTop Spin in Animal Kingdom. I like dinosaurs and it is related to the Dinosaur ride. I like how it can be tilted.
Al riding a dinosaur!
1. One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish in Islands of Adventure. This is my favorite spinner ride. I like how you can get wet and it gives you directions to not get wet.
In the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you can buy your own wand!
First there is a whole show that you get to see, then, you walk into this ginormous room filled with wands!!
You can buy your favorite Harry Potter characters wand or find your own wand. It is a really neat experience and if you are a fan of Harry Potter than this is a must do while you’re in Universal.
I bought my own wand that resembles me, a Hufflepuff!
My brother also bought his own wand.
You can even use the wand that you buy in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! When you buy a wand it comes with a map of the entire world of Harry Potter. You walk over to a spot that was on your map and wave your wand the way it says.
Then it starts moving!
It is really cool and if you are a big fan of Harry Potter than you are going to love being able to use your own wand or the wand of your favorite character!
3 Broom Sticks looks and feels like you are in Harry Potter land!
Here is the menu:
I got the fish and chips with grapes. It was really good! I would totally recommend it.
My mom got the cornish pastries with a salad. She liked her food.
My brother got the macaroni and cheese with grapes that looks really good in my opinion.
Doesn’t this look really good?
My dad got the Shepherds Pie with a salad.
My favorite part is just the atmosphere just feels like you’re in the world with Harry Potter. I know I already said that but it’s true! You won’t know until you go!
Back in January I interviewed my brother, Al. Now he is six and a half and I thought, “How about we do an interview with a six year old?”
Izzy: Hi Al! I am going to be interviewing you again for my blog.
Al: Okay.
Izzy: Can you list your favorite rides at Disney World?
Al: First it’s got to be Test Track, next is Dinosaur, then Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, fourth is Spaceship Earth, and fifth is… I got to think about this one. Fifth is Big Thunder Mountain.
Izzy: Do you like meeting characters? If so which ones?
