it was up early to take in universal orlando resort. we piled in the convertible with the top down even though it was cloudy and threatened to rain. not the warmest weather they have had but certainly balmier than back home. the line up wasn't too long and with vip parking (which is only 5 bucks extra) it wasn't too long of a walk to the gates to decide, which first.... islands of adventure or universal studios.... we figured get the rides in before it rained and we could keep dry in the shelter of the shows.... wrong.... first stop was marvel superhero island and ride the Hulk - and wow what a ride...
well worth the long long wait for even such a short ride - but it was double wrong for going on the biggest ride first (makes all the rest lame in comparison) and the water rides next - nothing like getting soaking wet right when it starts raining and turns colder... we shivered are way from rip saw falls and bilge rat barges in toon lagoon to jurassic park river adventure... oh wait - we were too cold to even try that one... so how about drying off on a fast ride - so it was off to the dueling dragons in the lost continent - another long wait but at least there were things to see along the
way..t. many a men lost their lives battling the dragons... and many a bones were scattered along the way... lots of time to take pictures of each and every grave. the line up for sindbad was too long and as i said, looked lame compared to the other high flying rides we had already gone on... so it was off to suess landing... passing by poseidon's fury only because we were still cold and damp. it was neat to see all the big replicas of the books we used to read when we were tiny, green eggs and ham, one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish and the cat in the hat. i have oodles of pictures of jesse with all types of the hats... saved a wack of money on having to buy none...lol ...so almost dry, we proceeded to universal studios and the parade was just starting... being mardi gras for the month of march... i'll tell you the bead story later... we headed straight for the event with the shortest wait... shrek... but i am running out of time so better get back to work and finish this off tomorrow
