Hello from Universal, where you can visit the Incredible Hulk in the morning, spend the afternoon with Dr. Seuss and in the evening have dinner with Emeril Lagasse. Universal may be known around the world for it's theme parks, but for those who crave adventure and scenic vistas, you can find all that here too.

And staying at the Royal Pacific Resort has put us right in the middle of everything. Loews has three of the finest hotels, here in Orlando ... we chose Royal Pacific this time around. The best part is that everything is right outside our door. In the morning we stroll over to Universal Orlando's two exciting theme parks and then spend time at City Walk, the city's number one spot for dining, dancing and kicking back after a long day. Did I mention the pool? It's great ... a little on the crowded side (not an exclusive hotel) but the cabanas saved us? We took two.

Where you start really depends on what you are looking for. Of course, there are the attractions -- more than two dozen -- where you can get up close to animals in the wild, feed alligators, rush down a water slide at breakneck speed, ride roller coasters and state-of-the-art thrill rides that will leave you breathless or simply float in a tube while the world goes by.

Did I leave anything out? You bet I did. But I'll keep posting after I try and find everything worth doing while here.
