Universal Orlando Resort

Universal Orlando Resort 

 Here’s a chapter that doesn’t require a lot of talk !  While spending some time in Florida we enjoyed a day at Universal Amusement Park.   Oh, right, they like to be called Universal Orlando Resort. 

 

 

Universal is about Hard Rock Café –

 

 

 

 

Wild coasters, yes we rode this!  What a blast!  We wanted the front seat but the wait list for the front was over 2 hours, so we opted for whatever seats were available.  It was still an awesome, exciting, ride!

 

It is about Heathcliff, Dr. Seuss, Betty Boop, Krazy Kat, Popeye and Toon Lagoon!

 It’s about Jurassic Park, Skull Island and King Kong –

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Universal’s greatest addition is that of Harry Potter’s World.  If you’re a fan of Potter you really need to go visit and enjoy - We'll start here ⬇

The train station and platform 9 & 3/4

 

 

 And boarding the Hogwarts Express

  Then visiting all the shops in Diagon Alley

 Strolling along the alleys....

 

 Visiting some of the shops....

 

 

Shopping for the perfect wand !

 

 

 
 There are soooo many to choose from!!

 

 

 

 
 














Grabbing lunch at the Leaky Cauldron!

 

Visiting Gringotts Money Exchange and venturing deep underground to the vaults!

 

 

 

 Touring classrooms and corridors of Hogwarts and soaring high above the castle on a ... broomstick ???

 

 

 Just wandering and taking in the sights ... even the tilted ones!

A totally wild ride on one of two ferocious 
dragons that twist, turn and loop at high speed on Dragon Challenge ..... whew!

More excitement coming soon.
