The perk of traveling while other kids are in school (in the low season) is a bonus of worldschooling.<\/p>\n

Last week we went to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. We walked on to Hagrid\u2019s roller coaster without waiting. I rode the Mummy with my son Lucas 5 times. The kids rode Popeye and Bluto\u2019s Bilge-Rat Barges 15 times (Henry talked his way into staying on the ride and not having to re-enter the line). They were soaked from head-to-toe and smiling from ear-to-ear.\u00a0\u00a0Grandma, grandpa, Michael and I took turns riding The Woody Woodpecker roller coaster with the boys for an hour. The two days we were at the parks were incredible.<\/p>\n
