Thrills and spills in the Sunshine State

Yesterday was all Disney, and today was all Universal. No long waits, no grumbles — just world after world unfolding faster than I thought possible. Whether we were casting spells at Hogwarts or swinging through the streets with Spider-Man, these past couple of days have felt like stepping into our own story. This kids have been waking up wide-eyed, knowing magic is waiting — and with VIP access, a personal guide, and queue jumps galore, we've wasted no time diving in. And as evening fell last night, and the castle lights dimmed, the magic kept going with dazzling shows and unforgettable moments.

We were picked up by a private car today, and within an hour’s drive we landed at the Kennedy Space Center. A behind-the-scenes tour with a former astronaut meant we got to ask those dying-to-know questions, like how does it feel to spacewalk? What does Earth look like from above? And the all-important, have you ever seen an alien?! Tomorrow, we're up bright and early to cycle around the upscale shopping districts and marvel at Gatsby-era mansions.

So far in Bal Harbour, we've met a local street artist who took us around the inspiring graffiti-covered warehouses of Miami’s Wynwood Arts District, before heading to his studio to create our own spray-painted work of art to take home! Today, we've swapped the city for the Everglades and explored protected wetlands and prairie grasslands (home to alligators, manatees, panthers). This evening, we've picked up a cocktail glass in true Miami style, and headed out on private yacht in Biscayne Bay. The Miami coastline is stunning, and we've had a bartender on hand to cater to our every need.
