I'm getting so daring! It's crazy!!!
I finally got to have an actual breakfast!!!! My roommate and I went to Ihop for breakfast and it was so needed I can't remember the last time I had anything besides cereal or pop tarts cause I never have time! After Ihop we headed to Typhoon Lagoon. We went on what I guess is an water roller coaster called the Crusher Gusher.
Next we did one of the coolest things I can now say I've done, we went to Shark Reef and swam with sharks (small ones not Jaws size), sting rays and tropical fish (I saw at least two dorys!) As cool as this sounds, I don't feel I enjoyed it as much as I could have. See first you are in cold salt water, you are given a snorkel and mask and naturally you breath out of the snorkel. I am naturally a nasal breather so doing that wasn't easy already so of course I sucked in some salt water and got it in my mouth . I've tasted salty stuff but holy crap was that water salty! I was. coughing for at least ten minutes afterward but still it's pretty cool to say I swam with sharks! We then hit the wave pool for a bit. I got to see my favorite character, Stitch then headed out.
Next up, we headed to Universal Studios. For those of you who know Universal, Islands of Adventure has two big roller coasters (The Hulk and the Dragon Challenge) and Studios has only one the Hollywood Rock It Rip It. So since I went on the Hulk yesterday, guess which one I did today??? That's right Hollywood Rock It. It's cool that you get to pick you're own music to listen to while you ride it, I picked Hella Good by No Doubt, good song to ride a roller coaster to. My roommate said this one was not worse then the Hulk, I thought it was! Still I would probably try it again!
After that we went inside where the makeup show is and checked out the props. Then we saw this magic show in which they are more or less showing you how to use stuff they want you to buy. I saw the levitating trick, cards, these ball things that multiply and my personally favorite the flaming wallet. As we were walking out to head to islands. I got to see some of the characters out that you can meet and greet. I saw Dora and Diego, Scooby Doo, The Simpsons and Marilyn Monroe with Lucille Ball. I just thought that was such a weird collection of characters to have in roughly the same area at least Disney characters flow better.
Once we were in Islands of Adventure we got to see the Superheroes come out. They come out on four wheelers which was pretty cool. Lets see there was Captain America, Wolverine, Storm, that other girl from X-Men in the green suit, Cyclops and Spider-Man. Then my roommate made me go on the water rides. We went on Popeye and Bluto's River barges and got soaked and then we went on the Jurassic Park River Adventure.
After that we headed out and went to some mall that was deserted which was creepy so we left immediately and then went to the outlets. After that we picked up a pizza and headed back to the apartment and watched Back to the Future Part 2. Unfortunately I have work again in the morning, I don't know how two days flew by so quick! Also I will take some time this week to add pictures although they are already up on Facebook if you can see them there.
