The best park...

Today, let's go to talk about the best park in Orlando. Islands of Adventures is amazing. If you enjoy adventure and excitement, you need go there. Whether you don't enjoy this kind of thing, even so, this is an incredible place. The children can appreciate taking photos with Spiderman, American Captain, Popeye and others. Like the area is smaller, it's more easy find all the attractions. Seems that the attractions are nearby one another.
When you pass by the entrance of the park, you can see the fast and heavy roller coaster from "Incredible Hulk Coaster". During the time that you are pushed by the green man, you almost don't get breath. Nearby this insane option you can jump on a tower called "Fear Fall", that's not so tall. And if you want to be dizzy you can spin inner the "Storm Force Accelatron" from X-Men's. Other good option is "The amazing adventures of Spider-Man" where you ride into an amazing simulator.
If the idea is wet places, you have two good options. First a splash from Popeye called "Popeye & Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges", and, second "Jurassic Park River Adventure" inside a boat with haunting dinosaurs. Children also has good options at this two spots. Talking about children, "The Cat in the Hat" is the marvelous land inside this park for the boys and girls. There are rides and play areas.
Who loves presentation will certainly enjoy "Poseidon's Fury" with explosions from water and fire.
The best from the park comes from Harry Potter with the castle and the other part of the Hogsmeade. (Remember that the other part is from Universal Studios Park, like we talk in the last post.) Islands of Adventure has four big attractions from Potter. First, a wonderful ride simulation through the Hogwarts on Potter's broom ("Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey"). Second, a family roller coaster called "Flight of the Hippogriff". Third, "Hogward Express" that takes you to Universal Studios Park, like I said the last post. And finally, the best attraction from Islands, the insane roller coaster with several loops called "Dragon Challenge" that you ride on two ferocious dragons.
My final point of view is: this is the best park in Orlando. I wish come back there soon. Some photos to you.














Take care and see you...!

Universal Studios

It's time to talk about the other group in Orlando. The Universal Company has two parks in the city: Universal Studios and Island of Adventures. For me, both are the best in Orlando. For the major part of the adults too, because these parks are more appropriate for radical and emotional attractions. Today let's talk about the first one: Universal Studios. The park is about the movies and characters from Universal. There are focus in childhood movies like "Despicable Me", "Shrek", "Bob Sponge", "Curious George", "Barney" and others. For adults the main attractions are "Mummy", "Men in Black", "Transformers", "Furious", "Twister", "Terminator 2", "ET", "The Simpsons" and others.
It is inevitable the fact that "Harry Potter" is the impressive focus in this park and in Islands too. You have the village (Diagon Alley), the bank and the other stores from the film in this park, and the Hogwart Station with a train (Hogwarts Express) that go to both parks between Harry Potter attractions. In both parks you have thrill attractions with the movie scenes.
"Transformers", "Mummy", "Despicable Me" and "Men in Black" have other good simulators. Now, for the people that want extreme adventures, the better option is the roller coaster called "RockIt" that is absolutely insane. For almost the entire park you can see the impressive extension of this roller coaster. The lines you need to take can be tiring along the day, although this is an incredible park.
The conclusion is: Universal Studios is an impressive park, worse in my point of view only for Islands of Adventures. The next week let's talk about this one.




















A nice week for you!

Blizzard Beach Park

We also had an incredible time in one waterpark from Disney. After some days walking under a hard sun in other parks, this was a time to chill and enjoy the fresh water. The park we visited was Blizzard Beach Park, a marvelous place where you find artificial rivers, wave pool, attractions for children and a lot of waterslides. The scenario is a mountain with a blizzard weather and a ski station with a lot of downhills. The variety of radical attractions is also wonderful. You need to get in early for a good spot, but there are many beach chairs and loungers. The water is controlled and amazingly ideal. If you have courage can adventure in an almost ninety degrees waterslide. The only trouble is that during the summer you've days with rain and lightning, if this happen, they close the attractions.
But this was one of most marvelous places that we visited in Orlando. If you enjoy water and pools, you need go to the Blizzard Beach Park during your time in Orlando. Simply incredible.
Some photos.

Hollywood Studios

This is the most radical park between the four from Disney. But not that is a fantastic park for adults, because for me, the two parks from Universal are better. "Rock'n'Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith" is a good radical option where you ride through the freeways of Los Angeles during the night. "The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror" is a haunted elevator into an antique hotel where the people can take a thrilling ride. "Toy Story Midway Mania!" is a good option for the entire family, where you ride a 4D shooting game. Star Wars' fans enjoy "Star Tours - The Adventures Continue" flying inside a 3D motion-simulated. If you like live action, you can see "Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular" that reproduces a moving-making studio, and "Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show" where you can see good professional drivers and special effects. Like this is a park that focus movies, the children also have good options mainly from Frozen, Muppets, Beauty and the Beast, Bugs, Mermaid and Disney Junior. This park is smaller than others but has good attractions for children and adults. See some photos.














See you...
