Islands of Adventure & Universal Studios

For Tuesday (11/21), we decided to mix it up and head over the the Universal Parks. I don't have a picture of it, but the Hulk roller coaster is totally awesomeOn our way over to the Spiderman ride, we saw the awesome X-Men :)























And who doesn't want their picture taken with Woody Woodpecker?! :)
I'm super excited about this! It's going to be totally awesome and Universal definitely needs it; this time around the Universal parks weren't as fun, they definitely lack the flare that Disney has, maybe it's that their employees aren't as excited to come to work.

On Wednesday(11/21) we went to Universal Studios. It was a lot of fun, but we didn't take many pictures. I think the Mummy was the most exciting ride we went on there.

We rode the new Simpson's ride, which was pretty good. You enter Krusty Land, and while waiting to get to the roller coaster they show clips from various Simpson's episodes, which is the only way to watch the Simpson's.
The ride took over the old Back the the Future ride, and instead of throwing out the DeLorean they just refurbished it into this ride. You get in what is supposed to be a cart that goes on a roller coaster and then you are thrown off the tracks and end up bouncing all over the park while Sideshow Bob is trying to kill you and the Simpson's family. It's thrilling.....but was overall a pretty good ride.
I do always enjoy Seuss Landing, it's just so fun and cute.
