Los Angeles, California Day 2 "Universal Studios Hollywood"

   We spent our 2nd day in LA at the Universal Studios Hollywood. When we were planning our trip, going to Universal Studios Hollywood was not included in the plan. We just wanted to spend two days at Disneyland have fun there. However, when I looked at their website, I saw Raphael's favorite movies and in an instant I knew that he will love it. Guess whaaaaat?! He loved our Universal Studios Hollywood experience so much. He was so happy and it made him feel like a kid again. Here is how our 2nd day went....

   We went around 11:30am at the Universal Studios Hollywood. We purchased our tickets in front of the theme park. We only bought a 1-day pass ticket hoping that the waiting period won't be long so that we will be able to experience all the rides. We were so excited when we entered the theme park. We saw some familiar characters inside like scooby doo, minions, megatron, optimus prime and more.

   The first ride we went too is the studio tram. The tram was the best behind-the-scenes experience we've ever had. We had so much looking at the studios and locations that were used to shoot movies. We experienced being on a collapsing bridge. We also got the chance to be inside the King Kong 3d were in its like we were a part of the movie scene. I will save that information for you to find out! We saw special effects like how they make a set with rain and flood. There were also sets that were made to make a movie feel like its in Europe or country. We also got the chance to experience a set were in we were stuck in a subway and the things are going out of control. I won't say anything about it but it was soooooo amazing! We had so much fun! There were a lot to see and a lot to find out. If you are going to Universal Studios Hollywood, you have to go to this ride first! Here are some of our pictures...

   We went next to the Shrek 3d ride. We were given 3d glasses to use during the ride. We can't take photos or videos during the ride. We went to a theater and sat down in a moving chair. I won't tell what  you will see but all I can say is it was such a fun ride to be in it. The 3d animation was absolutely impressive.

   Rap and I went down to the Lower lot of the theme park and started our adventure with Transformers 3D. Our prayers were answered because the line was not too long. We only waited for 5 minutes and we got into the ride that fast. Raphael enjoyed the ride so much because its 3D and its transformers. When we got inside the ride, we buckled our seat belts and we went to an amazing ride. IT WAS AMAZING that we labeled the Transformers 3D as our favorite ride at the Universal Studios Hollywood. The animation made everything cool and amazing because we really felt like we were part of the autobots versus decepticons war. We loved it so much and we were so happy we went on that ride. Here are some of the after photos since we were not allowed to take pictures and videos.

   The next ride we went too is the "The Mummy Revenge". We were required to check in our bag inside the lockers. I had a feeling that it will be a scary ride. 

   We are so lucky that the line was not long and we were able to go inside the ride immediately. While we were waiting, the couple next to us made us feel uncomfortable because they were kissing and showing too much affection. Ooookaaay!!! This is just a suggestion for all the showy couples out there (looool!!!!). Don't think that when you kiss in public that people don't look and not really care because the truth is we feel really uncomfortable with you kissing and doing too much. There are approriate places and there is a right time to do that.

   Anyway!!!! The mummy ride was so cool! Though we didn't see anything, we got really scared because we didn't know what to expect. The ride was so amazing but it was too short and we wanted more! Lol!!!

   After the mummy ride, we got hungry but we both decided to do another ride. We looked at each other and we both knew that were going for the "Jurassic Park" ride. We were warned that were going to get wet. However, I didn't get the instructions ride. My understanding was that if you ride in front that's the only time you're going to get wet. When we sat down for the ride, we got wet immediately. The big bonus of the whole ride is that we got really wet!!!!! It's like we did the ice bucket challenge!!!!! Here are the pictures...

   We ate Panda Express for lunch since its the first restaurant we saw. After a very delicious lunch, we went directly to the Minion Mayhem ride because I looooove Minions. 

   When we got to the ride, we met Gru!!!!!!! We were so happy to see Gru, Dave and Stuart. I love them! 

   The Minion Mayhem ride was so amazing! The ride was made in 3D. The Minion Mayhem 3D ride is new and so if you get to visit the Universal Studios you should go try it. After all the rides we've been through, we got tired walking and so we decided to watch the special effects show. We loved it. The emcees were funny and very lively. The special effects were amazing. .

   Overall, we were so happy and grateful that we were able to go to Universal Studios Hollywood. I loved every moment we had in there. I look at my husband every single time and I can't help but cry because of happiness inside my heart. Raphael enjoyed the experience and he looked like a kid who tasted a lollipop for the first time. We really enjoyed our visit and were looking forward to go back with our family and friends. Thank you Universal Studios Hollywood for a great experience.
