Being exposed to Disney Junior Channel, Nickelodeon and animation films since they were infants, my kids are familiar with most of the animation characters. Apart from bringing them to meet the familiar characters at the seasonal Meet and Greet, Universal Studios is the place for them to find their favourite characters and enjoy the rides.
We heard about the 6-months season pass from my hub's colleague and thought that it will be a good idea to get the pass so that we can bring the kids to the park whenever we want. Hence earlier this CNY, we went to get the season pass when my sister decided to bring her girl to USS for her birthday outing.

During the CNY period, my hubs and my sister and brother-in-law happened to have the following Monday off and we decided to visit the park without the kids (in hope that we could go on all the rides since it is usually impossible with the kids around). And so we went on the couple date. It was a Monday hence we were pretty surprised that it was very crowded that day but it could be due to the fact that many people were still on leave then. Most of the rides have loonnngggg queues and had to queue for more than an hour for the popular rides like Transformers 3D ride and Revenge of the Mummy.

And the kids have no school on the recent Tuesday as the teachers are on a teachers bonding course hence my hubs took leave and we decided to bring them to USS once again (the benefit of the season pass!). My sister was on her 2 weeks leave so she brought her girl along for a fun day out. Finally, the park was less crowded and we did not have to squeeze with the crowd nor queue long for the rides.
The kids had the opportunity to go on the Dino Soaring ride since there was no queue (it is always almost impossible to wait in a queue with restless kids hence we always avoid queues). Janelle loved the ride and requested to go on the ride again before we leave the park.

It was one of the most tiring days at USS as we went on most of the rides and we were blessed with
hot good weather. In fact, Janelle was so excited about coming to USS that she woke up at 6.30am that morning!
I'm glad that we have gotten the season pass as the kids love the park and we can always bring them back when they want to meet the characters or go on the rides.
