Fun Times At Universal Orlando

So if you've been following the blog for a while there's a pretty good chance you've seen pictures of me at Universal Studios before, which means a lot of this will probably be the same thing of what you've seen in the past. Although this time Liz came along to join the fun! Heather was nice enough to get us both in for the day and Steph came along as well. So without further ado...here are some more theme park pictures!





Photobucket
We made it through the intimidating security guards and are ready for an adventure!





Photobucket
ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE!!!!!





Photobucket
The bridge clearly read that our adventure was about to begin.....





Photobucket
.....me and Liz were ready to begin.





Photobucket
First things first, I gave Dr. Bruce Banner a little tickle to make him angry enough to form into the The Incredible Hulk.





Photobucket
Liz snuck into Dr. Banner's laboratory without permission.....





Photobucket
.....it was not a good idea, and we barely made it out alive by hopping on a roller coaster.





Photobucket
But The Hulk eventually caught up with us after exiting the ride, so we hightailed it out of there!





Photobucket
We met up with Captain America and he kept us safe from all of the Marvel bullies.





Photobucket
Then I got sucker punched by a fake Captain America because he thought he could do a better job at protecting our group instead of the real deal.





Photobucket
Liz was excited to see what wasn't blocked off at the Harry Potter island.





Photobucket
I was on the lookout for chimney sweeps, but there were none in sight.





Photobucket
Liz was very disappointed that she did not have permission to go beyond the walls of the Potter island.....





Photobucket
.....but I told her to cheer up and everything was okey dokey.





Photobucket
Heather also cheered her up by looking over a bridge and pointing out the fact that they didn't have to wait in line to try this out.





Photobucket
It was time to get high in the sky on the Seuss Trolley Train Ride.





Photobucket
It was certainly the fastest and scariest ride we'd been on all day!





Photobucket
WOOT! WOOT!





Photobucket
We saw the dude from Green Eggs and Ham so we all gathered 'round for a group pic...then I told him to try eating food that isn't grossly discolored.





Photobucket
We're both suckers for cheesy pictures!





Photobucket
Green eggs and ham probably would have tasted better!





Photobucket
The cat in the hat is hands down my favorite hat accessorized feline.





Photobucket
And the Grinch is by far my favorite mean-spirited brute.





Photobucket
He was targeting me with his grinch-vision, but I got away from him just in time before he completely zeroed in on me.





Photobucket
Liz wanted to give the Lorax a hug, but it wouldn't get off that stupid stump.





Photobucket
Heather and Steph are ready for a go 'round on the Caro-Seuss-el.....





Photobucket
.....as are me and Liz.





Photobucket
Liz throughly enjoyed strangling her Seussy beast.





Photobucket
Heather and I feared for our lives!





Photobucket
We all remained alive after spinning at such a blistering speed! Heather joined one of the Seuss characters in teasing the sheer terror of death!





Photobucket
Next stop...Universal Studios. That sphere also spins around at a breakneck speed!





Photobucket
But before we entered into the park Liz had to show off her mad wizardry skills.





Photobucket
Even though there is nothing related to Dr. Seuss at this park it was still very difficult to escape it.





Photobucket
"Okay, what's next?"





Photobucket
Liz getting eaten by Jaws...that's what's next.





Photobucket
We still gave it some love.





Photobucket
Heather and Steph did the same.





Photobucket
TIME FOR A BOAT RIDE!!!!!





Photobucket
TIME FOR EXPLOSIONS!!!!!





Photobucket
What are we gonna do? Where are we gonna go?





Photobucket
Heather and I kept our cool...Steph on the other hand was freaking out!





Photobucket
Jaws came out to play.





Photobucket
Liz was ecstatic.





Photobucket
But the boat driver shot it down real good and burned it to a crisp. Liz never did get a chance to have a play date with this old fish.





Photobucket
We stumbled upon the secret headquarters of MIB, which means they need to work on making it much more secretive.





Photobucket
I get really timid around extraterrestrial creatures.





Photobucket
Ain't nothin' like shootin' lasers at d'em weird lookin' martian fellas.





Photobucket
Liz thought this dude was super cute.....





Photobucket
.....but not as super cute as my new hairdo!





Photobucket
This alien had quite enough of my foolishness, and Steph and Heather had a front row seat for the entire brawl.





Photobucket
Heather relaxes for a bit inside of the Cool Zone.





Photobucket
I clearly wasn't as cool to be able to keep my cool.





Photobucket
I tried my best to calm down and regain my coolness.





Photobucket
I'm having so much fun in the Cool Zone!





Photobucket
Time for a ride with the Simpsons!





Photobucket
I'm always up for a ride with this family.....





Photobucket
.....unfortunately, I had to wait in the twin section in line with Patty and Selma.





Photobucket
Liz was ready to ride on the scary clown machine!





Photobucket
Liz and Chief Wiggum gave me a time out for not keeping my hands within the car at all times.





Photobucket
Steph called up my mom to let her know my behavior on the ride was unacceptable.





Photobucket
Then I talked to my mom to tell her I learned my lesson to keep my hands in the car.





Photobucket
Liz took a moment to say hi. Everything was a-okay and we were all ready to have some fun again!





Photobucket
So we checked out the Mardi Gras parade and Heather gave all of the statues high fives.





Photobucket
Me and Liz found some beads.





Photobucket
Liz tried to hold in her excitement for whatever reason.....





Photobucket
.....but after a few seconds she couldn't hold it in any longer!





Photobucket
We said goodbye to our friends Heather and Steph, and then we walked around trying to find a gift shop. Luckily, it doesn't take too much effort to find one.





Photobucket
How can you not phone home to this endearing alien?





Photobucket
How can you say no with eyes like these?





Photobucket
Or these?





Photobucket
It's been a good few hours since we had any encounter with Dr. Seuss goods, so we tried a few things on before getting scanned by the giant copier machine off to the side.





Photobucket
I learn from the best when it comes to web slinging action.





Photobucket
Apparently I can be a bit of a joker.....





Photobucket
.....but so can Liz!





Photobucket
Most people call us The Wild Card.





Photobucket
Liz seemed to have had a good time.





Photobucket
So did I. Thanks again, Heather!





The End.
