I don't know. I'll have to get back to you on that.

After reading this thread, I figured I would let you all know about an expierence we had a USF on this past Saturday. I am not partial to Disney, in fact, we went to Disney parks 3 days, and Universals 2 days this past week. The kids really enjoy many things Universal has to offer, and I actually enjoy the feeling the parks give you. Islands is a great park, even with little kids.
Anyway, onto my little rant. While getting a soda near Fear Factor (with my 3 kids under 8 mind you) the lady getting my soda had a little problem. It seemed a bee was bothering her, so she she "Get you A** outta here!". I was shocked that she would say this, then the other lady behind the counter starting laughing at her. I'm not going to say my kids were scared or anything, heck I say worse everyday. I just thought this was unprofessional and not apologizing for it showed a lack of class. I seen other examples of what I thought was poor customer service, namely at the Buger Diggs, waiting 20 minutes for shakes. Lots of not caring attitute. We will still go back, as I do love the parks, just hope they would clean up some of the TM's that obviously don't care.
Hi Jayster- nice to know someone understands. My husband says life is too stressful for our vacations to be MORE stressful so no more WDW! I still can not believe how much we loved Universal! We planned to go this spring but life happened again - seizures for my son- so we now have Oct. at HRH and Dec. for Portifono reserved! I can not wait!!!!! I want to try all three resorts before we head back to RPR. That place was PERFECT! We had a club room right over the pool. My son is not very verbal but the other day I asked what he wanted to do and he said " trains at versal( his word for Universal)" so I know it was a big hit for him too! He wanted to ride the Suess High in the Sky ride OVER and OVER!! when we were there.
Macraven- my husband and I are still laughing about "mummy dust!"
I have to pipe in here .. we went to US/IOA back in 2004.We hear so much about how Universal doesn't have the "magic." It looks like you found a little magic there. Thanks for sharing.
