  • In today's video it's time to celebrate the holidays at both of the Universal Orlando theme parks for opening night and this event runs from November 12th - January 1st 2022 at no extra cost to your general park admission. I start at Universal Studios Florida first to check out a few park construction updates and to have our first walkthrough of the new holiday tribute store. After that I find some exclusive Christmas treats & drinks before finding our spot to watch Universal’s Holiday Parade featuring Macy's. Next we park hop over to Islands of Adventure to watch The Grinchmas Who-liday Spectacular and to see a little bit of The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle. I will be making another trip out to Universal Orlando to complete everything that I may have missed for the holidays very soon. Thank you so much for watching, if you enjoyed this video please give it a big thumbs up!

    We fly out to Universal from the UK tomorrow. Thanks for your coverage Dev, the tribute store, Macy’s parade but especially Gringemas. It’s been a three year wait but it’s finally happening. I’ve been watching your blogs since the start of covid. Thank you and Bianca for keeping us all updated with your wonderful coverage during this time. I loved that Universals parade featured a black Santa, happy holidays to you and your family

    One reason why I bought an annual pass for Universal both Orlando and Hollywood is that they don’t charge people extra to experience special events (except HHN of course) in their parks. No need to get stressed out and keep looking on my phone to ride rides. They’re giving more and more every year and I really appreciate that.

    You missed the Grinch spirit jersey. We were there on the 12th as well and spoke to the Tribute Store head and asked for an "Earl's North of the Border" shirt. Let's see if they come out. The Grinch spirit jersey says "Merry Grinchmas" and the bottom of is like polar fleece. My wife loves it.

    Hello Dev, I just wanted to say thank you for making these videos. A little story I deployed out to sea back in January of this year. During that time I was going through rough times. I almost loss my life on the flight deck during night ops. Then I ended up getting sick for 3weeks. I had a family emergency back in the states but I didn't findout till months later due to losing communication. Everytime we hit a port I'd watch and download your videos. They truly helped me ,along with prayers, get through this deployment. They gave me a small sense of normancy. When we got back from deployment this past August. I took my wife to disneyland for her birthday. Even though she's a Florida girl who loves Disney world. Disneyland in CA was our first date. Godbless you Dev Im going to keep praying for you and your family. Please don't ever stop with your videos.

    Hey Dev and Bianca. It was so nice to meet you guys this weekend at the Hard Rock Hotel. I was so caught off guard and happy to see you guys that I don’t think I introduced ourselves. My name is Josh, and my wife that almost ran into you heading to the restroom is Erica. Seeing you at the beginning of our staycation put a smile on our faces the whole stay. Keep doing what you do because you put smiles on peoples faces and the truth matters.

It is a shame that guests have to spend more than half of their time on their phones using Genie +. I have great Core memories from my visit to Disney World that didn’t include cell phones. Thank you for all you do!

    @thecoolestdad Před rokem +1

    My daughter and I on the spur of the moment tried to put together a quick trip to Universal the day after Christmas so we could see the festivities at the parks. Well cancel that. Endless Summer requires a 7 night stay according to what my daughter saw. That's not right. We stayed there back in April and wanted to stay there again in a suite. Free shuttle to the parks. So it looks like a quick trip down in December won't happen. But my daughter is a travel agent and her and I are coming down at the end of January for her agent trip. Being the dad, I am coming down and staying probably on Palm Parkway at Rosen Inn. If not there then at Wyndham Cypress Palms in Kissimmee in a one bedroom condo; where we stayed back in October. I so wanted to come down to do a Universal/Islands trip for Christmas. Her agent trip will keep us at Disney for that trip.

    We don't need a black Santa. The person that Santa is modeled after was from turkey and not black. Why do we need to do this stuff? Why do caucasian characters and historical figures need a black copy? No one would dare think of needing a black Mulan or a black Gandhi would they?

      @@dawnloveless1165 I'm not offended at all. I just don't think we need to change the look of characters and historical figures to appease some certain group of people. It is only done for caucasian people. No one ever changes the race of any other race to be black. Why not? Maybe that is what you should be asking.
