Florida Trip Day 7

On Wednesday the 14th, we went to Universal Orlando. There are 2 parks there: Universal Studios + Islands of Adventure. Last March, we ordered the tickets online and got 7 days for the price of one ($80)! We spent most of the day at Universal Studios. We saw Fear Factor live

and we also saw a live reenactment of Twister. We went and saw Shrek 4-D, and Terminator 2 3-D as well.

Beautiful 3-D glasses

One of my favorites was the Simpsons ride. I hate the Simpsons t.v. show, but this ride had nothing to do with the show. You were in this car and there's a screen in front of you and the car moves around and on the screen you're at an amusement park going on a very wild ride. It felt so real! I loved it!

I think this was Hollywood Blvd.

Then, we went over to the Islands of Adventure park. This is the entrance.

These are just inside the entrance

This is the most beautiful area of the park

We left the park at suppertime and went to TGI Friday's for supper. I had fried macaroni, which was GREAT! Sounds healthy, right? We liked to go in the hot tub at our condo in the evenings to relax after a busy day, but our hot tub wasn't working properly, so the water wasn't very hot. That was disappointing, especially since the evenings got really cold (+10 was quite cold for Orlando). Oh well, not the end of the world. The pool area was a little ways away from our condo building (there was a whole condo/house community that we were staying in: Windsor Hills Reserve), so it was quite a cold run there + especially back when we were all wet. All part of the adventure! Oh, and thanks for all the comments! I really appreciate them and it makes blogging a lot more enjoyable for me. :)
