Orlando know for it's abundance theme parks. This time we only focus on Universal Studio. I never been to one before but I've been to Disneyland twice, one in Hong Kong and another in Japan. Main reason is that i want to see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. LOVE love love Harry Potter!!!!!
Day 2
Universal's Island of Adventure
once we were in, we went straight to Hogsmeade. But I'll save that for last
This is the Port of Entry
Seuss Landing
The Lost continent
Poseidon's Fury, it's rather old school
the special effect guided tour was old but quite decent
The 8th Voyage of Sindbad
live stunt show was quite funny. People who sat at the splash zone got very wet...
we shared a nice beef kebab, very tasty. Tip: Always stay half full.... you do not want to over eat or not eat anything at all.... the rides here is quite extreme but i would say it's slightly better than Universal Studio Florida not so much the nauseating 3D or 4D or 6D movie ride
arrrgggghh!!!!!
this ride is nice too, we had to queue for like 40 minutes for it. it was the only ride that had a long queue the rest was not much to no line
while in line
the music and beat in there was quite spooky, an old man actually fainted while waiting in line. luckily help was fast. Hope the man is alright
Toon Lagoon
Had fun here
we were shamelessly shooting people with water canon(which was meant for kids)...hehe too bad there wasn't many people riding the raft
Popeye the sailorman po po!!! one of my favorite cartoon when i was a kid
Olive is adorable
dizzy ride
looks awesome...we didn't ride it.... thanks to the Dragon Challenge in Hogsmeade which was the 1st ride we did....and we were done with roller coaster for the day!!!
Thinking back about that ride make me dizzy again..hehe
welcome to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade
One can ride the Hogwarts Express here to Diagon Alley in Universal Studio Florida if you buy the park to park admission meaning u can visit both Island Adventure and Universal Studio Orlando(which is next door and they have Diagon Alley)
Hogsmeade
the Hogwarts Express
the only time fake snow makes me so happy
Three Broomsticks
breakfast at Three Broomsticks, pricey but i need to eat something after the Dragon Challenge ride making me super dizzy and i can't even walk straight...Damn i'm too old for this roller coaster thing
amazing place
Owl Post
some snacks
every flavour beans
chocolate frog
more sweets
we need a cauldron
make mommy proud ok!!!
to Hogwarts...though i would like to ride a boat like how harry did one his 1st year but this works too
the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride was awesome! dizzy as predicted but was so much fun. And the journey through the Hogwarts castle makes my eyes water....can't believe i'm here!!!! how i wish this is a real world but for now as a muggle this will do
feels like i'm in a dream where i do not want to wake up
the 3rd ride in Harry Potter world, Flight of the Hippogriff....a fun and mild coaster
Hagrid are you home??
side view
LOVE LOVE LOVE their live performances
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry's Frog Choir, They were awesome!!!
another amazing perfomance by Drumstrang Institute @ Triwizard Spirit rally
Beauxbatons Academy of Magic....they even make that mesmerizing sound when they dance... ><
the Dragon Challenge ride...... i had my eyes close most of the ride....hahahaha
no line at all for this ride...if only i was 10 years younger i would have gone twice or 3 times
the castle look even amazing in the evening
Gilderoy Lockhart...lol Harry's fav professor ><
have you seen this Wizard??
look just like in the movie
that's it folks!!! a peak into the Wizarding world of Harry Potter the highlight of Universal Studio i would say... the rest was fun and all but This is the only place you would want to hang out for hours
oh well all good things must come to an end....and so is this... au revoir!!!
~so long wizarding world~
on our way out
there is tons of restaurants, cafes, fast food chains @ Universal CityWalk
just outside of the park. there is no need to worry for food
