Photo TR: Islands Of Adventure/Universal 05/08


Recommended Posts

So yesterday Robbie and I were sitting around his room bored... he had just gotten home from class and I had just woken up (This was around noon). I said "Man, I wish I had my Universal Pass still" his had just expired as well, so we had a great idea... lets renew! We hopped online and ordered our tickets, printed out the confirmations and headed to the park.

 

The park itself was absolutely dead! The longest we had to wait was 15min for the front row of Dueling Dragons Ice. What a great day to go.

 

Here's the photos:

I forgot how totally awesome the queue line is for this ride!

Me: "Hey, before we go, do you wanna ride ET really quick?"

 

Robbie: "Uh, yeahhhhh!"

My guess was that 50% of the people in the park were in line for Mummy.

Robbie's Squinty face for making him play DDR in the arcade.

My friend Maria. "Hi Maria!"

We decided to meander over to USF to ride a few rides as well. Mummy with a 30min wait!? Yay single riders!

DSC00805.jpg.73393ffce434e57305700b4995a72516.jpg

A VERY unacceptable amount of wetness!

DSC00804.jpg.f8994c2b01e21358bdba4bae102054f9.jpg

An unacceptable amount of wetness...

DSC00802.jpg.62ec042fdea298f52be41242df3b3073.jpg

Why the sad faces?

Time, the ever flowing river, come with us now, to a time before man, when the river flowed through a newborn world, and giants walked the earth. Welcome to Jurassic Park! (OMG Working doors!)

DSC00797.jpg.df53d1fac1628fd00579bef86cf18483.jpg

Hmm, trash bag poncho... And I thought I was cheap!

 

You don't even get that wet on the ride!

Hi River Adventure!

Squinty face in response to what he said.

DSC00794.jpg.47e9eaf7ea4934efd290fe19a32cb4c6.jpg

Me: "I used to go in there all the time and steal pickles" (Hi Julie!)

 

Robbie: "Oh, is that how you lost your gag reflex?"

DSC00793.jpg.4107470a5754418ea418c99620f72672.jpg

I've had enough Harry Potter. I'll go to Jurassic Park.

DSC00837.jpg.c861be3b426c5ba3abb51b6b6d704a61.jpg

Hmm, to the Flying Firenze? Or to Jurassic Park?

DSC00791.jpg.14b58efb89774b37a6f37f98470121ea.jpg

Harry Potter fans rejoice!

DSC00786.jpg.3e5b0c4f646e70851b9134ea93612ca8.jpg

I've never eaten here, even though I've been to this park a bazillion times

DSC00783.jpg.c71597c1f505ec0f54a546c99641c153.jpg

But yeah, it was still as boring as I remembered! Argh!

DSC00781.jpg.ce114c6b03c78d2438c4bba287c39528.jpg

Or not even... not even 10min for the front row!

DSC00833.jpg.c4533e03840fd506e2978ebf1b3d80b5.jpg

Hi Hulk! Long time no see!

DSC00774.jpg.7cf6e6c7331e91f4748b0f83f4f2923f.jpg

Speaking of being cheap... Flexpay Lol!

DSC00775.jpg.0416923aa83f4129be9d4caa9b8748bd.jpg

DSC00773.jpg.5ae21429f6586b85cc20624cd2461538.jpg

Robbie getting his pass from the unresponsive machines... you had to basically punch the letters to get them to work!

DSC00772.jpg.1b65d070318dc0dca740ee1488f7b710.jpg

Girl: "Can I take your picture?"

Me: "I already have my camera, thanks though"

Girl: "Can you take my picture?"

Me: "Sure!"

I am REALLY jealous of U guys. I haven't had my Universal pass in about the same time frame (almost 2 years) and I MISS IT SO BAD! Plus the fact that you guys went on a DEAD day! I used to love taking a day off from work, packing up my son & heading to Universal on an off day like Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday! Awesome!!!!! Looks like U had a lot of fun!

 

If there was only a 10 minute wait on Spider-man, it was DEFINITELY a dead day!
