Florida

Visiting Daytona Beach in Florida with kids? Here are 5 must-do activities that have nothing to do with the Daytona International Speedway.

Last summer, I took the kids to Universal Studios Orlando as part of the Family Forward conference (which is currently happening at this very moment again this year as I type this post). You may remember my post about why you should stay at the Universal Orlando Resort, or more specifically, stay at Loews Royal Pacific Resort. 

This summer I took the kids to Universal Studios Hollywood.

Granted we were at Universal Orlando for 6 days and at Universal Hollywood for just 1 day, and with two theme parks to choose from, Universal Orlando will always have my heart, but Universal Hollywood has a lot to offer, especially if you are a tourist staying in the area or are local (like we are). 

I recently took my three children on a six day vacation to Universal Studios, Orlando.  It was fantastic, action-packed, and I think it's quite possible that I am still recovering.

We did so much during those six days that I'm going to have to break it all down over a few posts, especially about the Family Forward conference which was our main reason for visiting Universal Orlando.

During our vacation we stayed at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort, which is one of the three (soon to be four) on-site hotels at Universal Orlando.

Such a beautiful spot to stay.

There are many benefits to staying at the Universal Orlando on-site hotels, so I'm going to break down some of the reasons you should stay at Loews Royal Pacific Resort.
