While staying in the Orlando area, we spent four days at two of the Universal theme parks. Two of the days were at Universal Islands of Adventure Theme Park.




Hogsmeade:



We enjoy the Butterbeer there:

We did the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride:



We checked out many of the shops, and bought a few souvenirs, including some sweet stuff from Honeydukes:

Leaving Islands of Adventure at night:

Another day, we started out with cheese curds and margaritas at Margaritaville:


Then went on the Hulk roller coaster, which was the first time we’ve both ever been on a real roller coaster, with inversions and everything. We survived!



Then we went on a much more gentle ride, Storm Force Accelatron:

A Hulk popcorn snack:

Spiderman ride:

And Skull Island: Reign of Kong:

We were going to go on the Flight of the Hippogriff ride, but they had a major delay, so we bailed:
