California trip: Universal Studio

We went to Universal Studio, Los Angeles yesterday. It is definitely a fun place and I never been place like that. But I thing we were expecting too much, at times it seems like little repeatating. Some of the show was spectacular. We have not been in all shows because it was too crowded yesterday. There was literally explosion of people during the afternoon. We missed some of the great attractions like King Kong and Transformer 3D. I think we attended about 6 or 7 shows.

At the gate "House of Horror" welcomed us. It was okay, a scary tunnel with tons ghost loaded inside it. While you are passing by them some will attack you randomly. The ghosts were very realistic and truly scary. But I think there were too many people there and it was hard to get scared, since you know what's going on and there are too many people in there. It would be really interesting if one has to go alone.

The next show we attended was "Terminator." It was an interesting show. They kind of make some part of the terminator movie. Interesting part is some part was taken before and some part was actually portrayed on the stage. It was 3D show and they made transition between stage and movies amazingly. Not only the transition, they kind of blend the movie and the stage.

Our next pick was "Shrek." it was a pure 4D show, whatever it means to you. What is 4D show? Well it is a 3D movies with special seating arrangement, so that you can get the feeling of some of the things you are watching on screen. Like if the character on screen is soaked into they will spray some water and give you that feeling or the chair will move if the character is riding a horse.

Then we went to the ride section and took "Jurrasik Park" and "Mummy." Both of them was kind of roller coaster ride but I like "Jurrasic Park" better. They took us in a boat ride into "Jurrasic Park" and the entrance was spectacular. I don't know why other people in our group did not enjoyed it much but I loved it. It was so cool. "Mummy" was just a ride, no story no show. As a ride it was great. But there was no theme in it. Anyway the ride was good.

We went to into the special effect stage then. It was cool show. They were showing some of the cool techniques of special effect and other cool techniques. It was sort of comedy, I liked it. Finally we went to the "Water World" show; it was spectacular. The show was unlike anything I have seen before. This is in my opinion a must to go place.

And then, Lipa lost her camera and found it at "Lost & Found" and call our day. The city walk next to universal studio is a cool place. It is a happening place. Full of shops, some concerts.
