Citywalk at Universal Studios Orlando

On a recent Friday night, my girlfriend and I went to Citywalk at Universal Studios in Orlando. There are definitely perks to living in Orlando! We had decided that we wanted a night out so off to Citywalk we went.

First stop, we went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner. I had an incredible bacon cheeseburger there. I must be getting old because I found it a little too loud especially to have a good conversation. There is much memorabilia to see and we had the honor of sitting under the Godfather of Soul, James Brown!

One word of advice - the orange margarita tastes nothing like an orange and is even the wrong color. Maybe the bartender had one too many!!

We then spent the evening people watching and walking throughout the entire Citywalk complex. We ended up going to the Red Coconut to chill out. It was a good club but the key is to go upstairs. We were the only people upstairs for a long time before everyone else figured it out. We enjoyed a couple of drinks on the balcony and doing some more peoplewatching.

Citywalk offers so many different things that almost anyone can find something that they enjoy. There are numerous restaurants and clubs outside of the main attractions, Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. I feel that these are the best attractions in Orlando and I never get tired of visiting them.

Til next time...
