Universal Orlando Questions?

insulated lunch bag with glass containers image

bobanna93

Next week I'm going to Universal and I just had a few questions... Are there lockers/ cubbies next to the large roller coasters that you can put your stuff on just for the duration of the ride? Is there a cost for them? Then, what is the cost of the all day lockers? Also, can you pack sandwiches in an insulated lunch bag? Any other advice/tips would be great, thank you!

What advice would you give your best girlfriend if she were traveling alone for the first time?

If you have traveled alone before and learned from the experience what advice (besides safety first)would you give your best (girl)friend if she were heading out to the big open for the first time alone?

Answer
Tell her to chum up with other young ladies who are also traveling alone, or at least to sit near other women in bus stations/on trains. Also, one thing I did when traveling alone at night on trains was to put a plastic bag on the inside of the door handle so that I could sleep. That way, if someone opened the door I would hear the plastic bag making that crinkling noise and I would wake up. Sometimes I'd also put a second plastic bag on the floor where someone would step on it, thereby making noise or slipping! I was a paranoid sleeper on trains, ha ha. Tell her that many women have done it before and she will be fine. I was SO scared before I left and it's a crazy thing to do, but what an amazing experience and a great chance to learn about herself and become more independent. People give me props all the time for doing it, so it's going to get her some free lunches for the rest of her life just having people want to hear about it. :)

Do they still make plastic lunch boxes with the thermos in them?
