The Universe Outside the World

Matt and I had scheduled two days to do the two Universal parks...Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios. The crowds were so light we were able to do both parks in one day. They were way cool. When Jack gets big, I'd like everybody to go back. They give Disney a serious run for their money with all the detail and the quality of attractions.
IOA (Islands of Adventure) has a Dr. Seuss land. The details are really cool for Seuss lovers. There's rides by the dozen for you and your cousins......

This is the Caro-seuss-el.

Poisedon's Fury is a combination stage show/attraction with water blasts, lasers, animatronics, live action, and digital effects. Some of the tricks left us scratching our heads as to they pulled it off.

Another pic of Poisedon's Fury.

This is Dudley Do Right's Ripsaw Falls. It was too cold to ride but they looked real neat. (Notice the empty boat!!)

Toon Town with alot of detail.

We enjoyed Marvel Comic Island the best. We rode Spiderman and the Hulk. Spiderman is the most unique ride I've ever been on.

Matt and Wolverine.

This is me in front of the Hulk. It shoots you up the first hill and by the time you crest the top you're going 90 miles an hour and pulling 3G's. Pretty awesome.
