Our last day was spent at Universal Studios Hollywood. We loved going with the boys last year and they wanted to show it to Emery and Jacks. Jacks couldn't ride the big Harry Potter ride so we did a parent switch with this one. I went with Emery and she hated it. First there was a glitch just as it started and the first screen went off. Then I forgot about the spiders and dementors on it, which you get pretty close to and she got scared. Needless to say, we only did that one once. The walk up to the ride is still one of the best there is. You literally walk though Hogwarts and see different sets from the movie.
All of the kids loved Simpson's Land. The ride was a lot of fun and all of the characters and props made it seem like you were there. Krusty was a family favorite.
I think Disney made them excited to meet characters and there were a lot out today.
Next to the Despicable Me ride was a splash pad where the kids got wet, and Cam got soaked. It was nice for them though since it was pretty hot outside.
We read online that you can ring all of the doorbells next to Gru's house, so Camden gave them all a try. Different characters said things after you did it.
They had a Walking Dead haunted house that you could walk through. Beck went with me through it and got pretty freaked out. He just kept yelling "don't touch me" and he gripped onto my arm.
(I know it's sideways, I can't get it to fix) We had to try Voodoo Doughnuts and all the kids agreed they did not disappoint.
When we left Salt Lake Jacks saw this plane set and wanted it. Since it was the start of the trip we didn't let him get something at the airport when we had the whole vacation still in front of us. By the end of the trip he had just enough left over of his money to get it. He was so excited that he got the same plane we were on.
We made each kid these book that they were able to put autographs and pictures in. They ended up really full with so many pictures. This trips was a lot of work but so worth it. The memories we all made will be something we can all remember together. We can't wait to go back again... but in a few years.
Here are the kids memories and thoughts about the trips typed out by them.
Camden
I really liked riding the new Guardians of the Galaxy Breakout, Cars, and California Screaming'. I also liked visiting the magic shop, I hope to impress kids at school with my magic. It was fun going everywhere, except the big lines. The food there was really good. I really liked The Penny Arcade, all the shops, rides, and walk thru. My favorite ride at Universal is The Mummy, California Adventure is California Screaming', San Diego Zoo is the red panda resort(they're my favorite animal), and Disney Land is Splash Mountain. I liked Holiday Inn and Best Western. I didn't like Home Wood Suites. These are my opinions about our trip.
