Universal Orlando officially opened its gates this morning to preview guests and the scene may surprise you! Crowds were heavy this morning going into the theme park reopening with lengthy lines.

As you can see from the image above the parks are in for a busy day despite more stringent social distancing requirements.
People for the most part seem to be abiding by the face mask requirements.
However, social distancing is proving a bit trickier especially with so many guests arriving this morning.
