Universal & Islands Of Adventure - Florida Blog #3

Universal was the first place we went to in Florida. I was so excited to go there and let me say that it is absolutely magical! First off we ventured up to Harry Potter World. When we got there everything was just like the films. The buildings looked the same and there were people dressed up as wizards. I tried ButterBeer and I got a wand. The only reason i got the wand was because I was chosen!

We spent more days in Universal than Islands Of Adventure as it was mostly big rides with long queues to get on. We ended up going on only a few rides.

There was one day at Universal where the thunder and lightning was really really bad and the rain was so bad that we had to stay undercover for about an hour as the thunder was so loud and the rain was so heavy.

There were streets like 'Hollywood' and 'New York'. I really loved these as the 'Hollywood' street had the stars on the floor which i took so many photos of! Also in Hollywood there were actors dressed up as famous people such as Lucy! and Marilyn Monroe. When meeting Lucy she was the nicest person ever. She took us into the Ben and Jerry's ice cream shop and chatted with us and took photos with us. She also signed my park pass - all in all it was amazing!

The main thing in New York was that everything had bright lights and it was how you would imagine the New York streets to be. Even the Starbucks sign had bright lights on it! The best thing about that street was the Blue's Brothers performance. They  arrived in the car and the live performances were absolutely amazing!

The productions we went to see were Men In Black, Alien Attack, Fear Factor Live, Shrek 4-D, Terminator 2: 3D and Animal Actors On Location. Going to see these shows were a nice change from queuing for attractions or the rides. We usually went to the shows when the weather was really hot. 

Universal was the place that i wanted to go to the most and i really enjoyed it. Next time i think i will spend more time in Islands Of Adventure as it was the park we spent less time in.
