Wowzers! Univeral Studios! All the Way!

Universal Studios Orlando is really, really fun and we can't wait to go back there. The fall was just perfect for visiting, as the crowds were minimal and the weather was pleasant. We just went for a day, and only one of the parks. There are the new fabulous rides; Despicable Me, and Transformers - fun and exhilarating! We loved meeting the characters from Despicable Me too!

 Of course there are the old favorites which Chris and I remembered from our youth, like Men in Black and the classic, E.T.. This one was very dated but still so charming as it was just such a great movie! The Simpsons and Back to the Future were also there for nostalgia.

Our two resident dare-devils, Amyah and Chris rode Rip Rocket about 4 times! It is the crazy roller coaster where you can choose music to listen to as you are looped, and rocketed around. Max, Gramps, Gran and I rested our feet, in the shade while these two got in on the thrill. Max got pretty close by checking out the roller coaster seats.

 Next time we go to Universal we would love to visit the other park. It is the home of Hogwarts, Spider-Man, Seuss, and the Incredible Hulk roller coaster. The kids loved the Universal Studios park more then Disney as there were more thrilling rides.We can't wait to return!
