Happy Friday the 13th from the Universal Orlando Resort! We arrived bright and early this morning and made our way over to Islands of Adventure first.
Before going to a Virtual Line system, Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure does have a standby line first thing in the morning during early Park Admission. As we photographed the line stretching into the Lost Continent, we spotted the doors open to the brand new All Hallows Eve Boutique.
To celebrate the “holiday,” this brand new Halloween store opened today in the Lost Continent. We spotted Halloween decals on the windows a few weeks ago and have been waiting to see what mysteries awaited us behind the doors. Check out a detailed tour of the store in our post here and all the latest merchandise here.
These might be some of our favorite items. The Jack shirt even has glow elements to it.
You can even watch candles being made inside the boutique. This is such a nice and unique touch to the store.
It’s so quiet in Seuss Landing! Kids have started to go back to school, so things have started to slow down a lot.
Even the Wizarding World has relatively low crowds. Not even a long line for Butterbeer.
We spotted our new friends from Port of Entry again. If you see them, make sure you stop and say hello!
The missing Sneetch has returned to the lagoon. It’s good to see the trio back together again.
Over at Universal Studios Florida, scare zones are coming together nicely. Houses, scare zones, and shows have all been announced. Check out the full lineup here.
The Tribute Store is nearing completion! We expect a few more details to be added, so we’re looking forward to seeing the finished product. Of course, we’re even more excited to see what’s inside when it opens later this month.
Another quiet afternoon in the parks. We’re going to miss these slow days once we hit peak season again.
A new Back to the Future Apple Watch band is available on U Design kiosks around the park. They are $40 and cannot be personalized. This is a really fun design, and we hope to see more new styles in the future. You can see other Apple Watch bands available in our post here.
That’s all for this visit to the Universal Orlando Resort. Thanks for joining us around the parks today, and be sure to stay tuned for all the latest updates!

would be nice if the theme parks we realize that the Apple watch is not the #1 selling watch, and make them for a few other brands, or maybe just the best selling brand
