Visiting Universal Orlando Resort
Orlando, September 2016
As I wrote in a previous post, despite the main goal of this trip to Florida was to visit the Kennedy Space Center, I spared two extra days to go to the beach. Why wouldn't I do that after an transatlantic crossing heading to Florida?
But... my friend had other ideas and convinced me going to the Universal theme parks. It took a long time to persuade me since I was not attracted, in my idea, to that kind of fun.
We bought tickets to the two contiguous parks of the Universal Orlando Resort: the Universal Studios Florida and the Universal Islands of Adventure.
Although both parks entrance are paid, you can explore the Universal CityWalk for free - there are shops, restaurants and entertainment areas.
Universal Studios Florida
We started exploring the Universal Studios Florida first. I didn't take many photos since I was more committed to have fun and enjoy the parks, which was totally a new experience for me. The park was crowded and we only had standard tickets without privileges to priority lanes. So we had to wait in line and make some choices of what we would like to see/experience.
I kept a record of the Rides we were taking but I'm not sure I wrote down them all:
- Transformers: The Ride 3-D
- Revenge of the Mummy
- Harry Potter: Escape from Gringotts
- Men in Black: Alien Attack
- Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem
- E.T. Adventure
Universal Islands of Adventure
- Jurassic Park: River Adventure
- Skull Island: Reign of Kong
- Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man
- Poseidon's Fury
- Harry Potter: Forbidden Journey
