So the plan for today was to hit Universal so our first task was to get our passes for the studios.
We entered the park at 9.15 and first up was a ride we didn't do last time - Despicable Me Minion Mayhem. This was mainly due to the queue times so when we saw it was 40 mins it was time to try it out.
It's an amazing ride and we will definitely try and do it again before we finish.
We hadn't planned to but today we did all of the new Harry Potter rides, the two train journeys - there and back ( two different experiences, in case you're wondering) and Gringotts Bank. The last took 3 hours but it's fair to say that the rain descended for all that time so we were better off undercover.
We had forgotten our ponchos so decided to give the water rides a miss. Before you accuse us of being softies you should know that a few of these rides will absolutely drench you.
In terms of the photos you have The Mummy which is one of our favorite rides, Hogwarts of course and my Local Legendary Burger from the Hard Rock Cafe. It was two beef patties, smoked bacon and mac'n'cheese in a Brioche bun served with fries - a top burger but not the all time best.
Arrived home and it's just gone 10.30pm so will be off to bed once I've posted this. The weather forecast isn't great for the next few days but it really depends on where you are and timing. As I was reminded earlier we can always spend more time shopping...
