ALONG COMES MARY

We spent an awesome Sunday Fun Day at Universal Studios to check out the brand new Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem ride! Despite the 70 minute wait for the ride, it was WELL worth it & we had a blast. Universal Studios is so clever & futuristic with their 3D attractions how they give such a fantastic illusion & feeling that you’re going upside down, up & down & getting attacked, yet the whole time, you’re sitting a car not on a track at all, just simply experiencing all these effects from your parked car & an amazing 3D screen.

We even had time for the tram ride, Mummy roller coaster, Jurassic Park (In the front row…with soaked pants after!), The Simpsons ride & one of our favorites, the Water World show. Here are some pictures highlighting the fun!

(The cute posters out front of Minion Mayhem)

(The Birds poster!)

(One of the most famous offices on the lot; Alfred Hitchcock’s. It is now used for audition purposes.)

(The famous Court house from Back to the Future!)

(Western town, ‘6 Points, Texas’) (New York, or any metropolitan city)

(Even Europe is re-created on their back lot)

(One of my favorite parts of the tour, seeing famous homes!)

(We get to see Desperate Housewives’ Wisteria Lane, & even 1313 Mockingbird Lane from The Munsters 😉 )

(Would you believe War of the Worlds was created right here?! This is it.)

(Complete with a once real 747 blown up!!)

Universal Studios continues their deal that’s so irresistible; Buy a day, get a pass good for the rest of 2014! 😉 I am loving mine & hope you check it out, too. And, just for the record, while I do work with many companies, I am not at all affiliated with Universal Studios, I just love to have fun here & share it with you all! xo
