Road Trip West With Jill

We woke up and had breakfast at the hotel. It had to be an early day because we had to meet our transportation at 8:30 am. We boarded the bus and off we went.

We were a bit apprehensive, because neither of us were ride goers and the tickets in were very expensive. Just a few minutes after we arrived, we realized everything would be ok. There were millions of people there, so it was very crowded. Added to the mix, was the opening of the new Harry Potter attraction. This attraction was very popular because it just opened April 2nd. It was very cool, and we were kind of live streaming the visit to Nikki who is a huge Harry Potter fan. Video: https://youtu.be/_pv7_WOtRCk

After lunch we went on the studio tour because our time was limited and this was the main reason we came to Universal. It was great! We saw sets from old and new movies/shows, some special effect sets, like a subway that caved in and a scene from Fate of the Future.

We also saw an attraction on special effects which showed how they were created, Water World where they put on a mini drama which was water based, and ended when an amazing animal show which featured animal actors.

All in all we had a great time and were very glad we decided to go. At 6:00 pm, we boarded the bus and were taken back to the hotel. We walked over 6.2 miles! Dinner at the Cheesecake Factory and off to bed.Leer más
