I am running on very little sleep, but today we are heading to the legacy parks of Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure very kindly with the press team.

We've had such a great time with the VIP tour guides, Grace and Joe. They were so fantastic and really looked after us.

I had the best day today. Honestly, the the team and the group have been so so wonderful.
