Universal Studios - what a trip!

It was a wonderful vacation - except for all the thundershowers.

The new Spiderman ride at Islands of Adventure is incredible. The water rides, the 3D theaters, everything - totally rocking.

The only downside is I'm more tired than when I left!

Yes - I can't believe I actually have to work tomorrow - I just want to sleep for a few days!
 
ummmm i think lisa might have been ... i'll ask her when shes home it would of been few years ago though
 
I've never been, but I'm not normally a theme park kinda person. They creep me out actually. That's what the Conspiracy wants to do to Nature. Everything paved and sanitized, with the trees only growing where they want them to grow and all the animals don't have ding dings.
 
Amusement parks aren't usually my thing. I don't do roller coasters and anything that moves fast in a circle makes me sick... however Disney and Universal really know how to do it right - making it more an adventure than just a thrill ride.
 
I'm not sure which...

either MGM or Universal....had the Back to the Future ride...we talked my Dad into going with us....he has a seriously weak shoulders and neck, so he was real skittish....but he went....he yelled and damned us about three times over!! :eek: We liked it but he hated it!!!!
 
Did you go to Typhoon Lagoon? (water park)

Ahh...something about hurling yourself down a slippery slope is just ssssssooooo relaxing.....

hey now i was 12 when i went...stop it with the perving!

Back To the Future is in Universal Studios and it is a GREAT ride!!! Motion simulator - incredible... but the best ride I've ever been on - I mentioned in my first post - is the SpiderMan ride at Islands of Adventure (part of Universal studios) - it combines a motion simulator, 3D technology, and an actual ride...

Not this time... but I was at Typhoon Lagoon about 9 or 10 years ago - its a blast. Did you do the Humonga Cowabunga? Or whatever its called - the water slide that's nearly a 100 foot vertical drop? Wow... major wedgie!!!
 
hahaha...yes sir i did!!

Waahoo! I think we nearly did it all! The wave pool, the lazy river, the slides...the raft escapades...My first time at a water park...and I was excited!! :D
 
I bet... they really are fun - especially on a hot day. Blizzard Beach is very good too...
 
*yawn* All I was told was....Typhoon Lagoon was the best....nothing can beat it...and well to me it's true. Glad to have you back...*hug*

So - has anyone else been to Universal Studios?

Very many years ago, I would "drag" my work buddies to Universal almost every weekend when I worked 2 1/2 months in Los Angeles.

Never tired of the studio tour ride (which actually showed some different things depending on the soundstage schedules), and overall it was a pleasant way to relax up in the hills!

Now that I think of it, I "dragged" them to Disneyland that time too! Although I so much prefer Disneyworld, it was very exciting to be at the "original", and the three of us acted like kids the entire day and night!

Glad you had such a memorable trip!
