Universal Summer #6

I drove my mom back to Flagler Beach today after she spent the week with us.  Earlier in the month, we were informed that our Universal Comp Passes would not be blacked out until the end of the month so I was able to secure a ticket for my mom and she came with us on Wednesday Night. 

We began the evening in Islands of Adventure. Mom, Zack, and I walked right on Cat in the Hat without any waiting at all and they made all three squeeze into the front and absolutely no one was in the back. 






After that, we met up with CJ and went on Seuss Trolley without much of a wait either (maybe 5 minutes). 



Next up was Reign of Kong.  It was not a busy day so even this ride was only a 5-10 minute wait.  This is the first time we have been in the front seat and the view from there is not good.  You have to turn your head all the way around to see the action.  

How can you not be awe of that giant Kong head?  Passing by it so closely you could reach out and touch it.  




Mom and I sat out while CJ and Zack went on Jurassic Park and then, out of nowhere, the wind picked up and it started thundering and lightning.  Thankfully, it really only lightly sprinkled so we did not get wet.  

We decided it would be a good time to take the train over to Universal and we were put in the same car as a woman who had grown up in Wisconsin.  




The last thing we did was ET - which always seems to be the last thing we do.  Again, virtually no wait time.  




On the way out, it was raining a bit harder but I still had to get Menchies and, for once, they had my favorite flavor - cake batter.  



A yummy way to end the day.
