I wonder if i am the only person ever to have their photo taken in front of this[msntongue]

This is a sight i like to see.

Thought i would head right for a change to Hollywood so past the horror make up theater and Terminator2 3d which are both not open yet and head for a look at the Woody WoodPeckers Kidszone area.

Lots of rides and activities for the young uns to do in here.

First ride for us is on ET where there is no line atall.

Time for a quick photo of the other side of the lake towards the Jaws ride.

Now its time to travel Back to the Future as we head for World Expo.
Only a 5/7 minute wait and off we go.

First time i got to do this ride as the 1st time...time was against me and the last visit it was closed.

Despite being the furthest ride from the entrance the lines were quite long so decided to take the single line and walked straight on and had great fun blasting those aliens.

I dont need to tell you which ride this is do i as we arrive in San Francisco/Amity area.





http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/2005414192456_JAWS1.jpg
Same as above as we try to fend off the killer attack.

Ok i know this is one of the most popular places at any park to get your photo taken so how could i refuse:D




http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/2005414192818_EARTHQUAKE.jpg
I think Earthquake is great the first and even 2nd time you see it but after that it starts to get a bit boring compared to some of the other rides.





http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/200541419387_BEETLEJUICE.jpg
After a bite to eat its off to get seated for Beetlejuice's Graveyard Revue which is a very funny and entertaining show not to be missed.
The show lasts around 20 mins and is a must see.




http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/200541419426_MUMMY1.jpg
As i walk from San Franciusco to New York im getting really excited as next up is The Revenge of the Mummy which i had not opened on my last visit and comes highly recommended.
Lines are long for this so again its the single line and a less than 5 minute wait all 3 times.




http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/200541419450_MUMMY2.jpg
Well i have to admit its a great ride and well worth the wait.
The Mummy is indeed the Daddy.
The picture above you can only see when you venture into the Mummys tomb[msnoo]





http://www.orlando-guide.info/forums/Data/ORLANDO_MAGIC/2005414194833_TWISTER1.jpg
The wind rises and the sky blackens and cars and trucks are thrown around like cotton wool so it can only mean the Twister has arrived.

Seems there is a lot of fire around Universal today.

They do-do a fast pass yes,but the first time i tried to get one the machine said the quota for the time being had been filled so i tried a couple of hours later and managed to get one then.
