Hey all. I'm headed to FL for a few days this week. Since BGA wont have Cheetah Hunt open yet, we are gonna hit Old Town tommorow after we land and head to Universal and IOA on Monday to hit everything there. If we were to tryto get on the new Harry Potter ride (my sister wants to do it) does anyone have a good guess as to when we should try? I"be heard both first thing in the am and later in the afternoon after the rush...any ideas?

I second that. From reports that I have heard, Potterland gets really busy, really fast. Also, make sure your done with Potterland before you leave since 9 time out of ten you will not get back in that day.

Dude, Harry Potter stuff never has long lines anymore- I've been almost 50 times the last 5 months. You'll be able to get everything done in no time. I usually do Rockit, Mummy, MIB, Hulk, Spiderman, JP, Both Dragons, and Harry Potter within 2 hours.

I have class M-F, so it's pretty hard for me to make the parks, sorry.

Just got home from there(resident :) ) and the part was empty today because of the Princess Half Marathon. Just get there when they open and have no bags and you will be on the ride by 9:20 I PROMISE!

I was there all day and HP was only maxed out at like 20 minutes. Suess' Trolley had a 40 minute line while Potter was only 20...lol.

Potter sucks.

Ice is awesome too! The 0g roll is great and the cobra roll is extremely fast and snappy. Also the wall fly by is insane!

Ice in the front and Fire in the back!

I also like Hulk the best in the back...yay airtime!
