This photo is for my grandsons and a couple granddaughters, too! HA! HA! So, I like the name Gecko, but I think they are use that name more in Hawaii, this is a lizard and they are all over Florida. They are small, fast and seem to be curious, too, they will watch you and see how close you will get to them and then they are off.

I loved taking this photo! The trick was to get the least amount of people in front of me but still get the people on the ride! There are actually two cars going, one at the top and one on the bottom. Universal Studios was a busy place this day, so getting this photo without too many people in front of me was a challenge, but worked! Yes, I did take a ton of photos! And, I would rather RELAX and take photos of my feet than go on a ride like this!

Our friends, Milt & Pam, had been to the Blue Man Group before, we hadn’t, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Before it started I put my feet up and RELAXED while people down the front and to the right of us put on Rain Ponchos, ok this will be interesting! And it WAS and it was GREAT and Chelsea LOVED it!! Very entertaining!

We had a wonderful time at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter which is in two parks, Diagon Alley is at Universal Studios and Hogsmeade is at Universal’s Islands of Adventure, it is amazing! As we were leaving we looked back to see the sunsetting over Hogwarts Castle to the left and Hogsmeade to the right, what a great good-bye!

Harry Potter attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Universal Studios has built it, making it into a very fun ride. I was hesitant to go on it at first, because I don’t like roller coasters, but it isn’t like that, it is more of a simulator type of ride. Thanks to my daughters who were texting me and encouraging me to go on it, knowing my fears, I did and I loved it! I am amazed at how they, (the creators of these rides) can make you feel like you are right there, flying on a broomstick above & around Hogwarts! This is a ride I highly recommend, it was so fun. We did get to go on it a number of times, though the wait was long at times, it was worth it!

At Universal Studios, if you want to go from Diagon Alley to Hogsmeade (which is in Islands of Adventure) at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you take the Hogwart Express. It is a short ride, but it is a ride, a train ride with scenes out the window of London and ‘Harry Potter’ type things and it is fun. If you ever go on the Hogwart Express, make sure you ride both directions because even though the background scene of London is the same, the foreground changes. We enjoyed the trip from Hogsmeade to Diagon Alley a little bit better. This was the perfect place to put my feet up and RELAX!!

We had a wonderful day at Universal Studios and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is awesome! We ate in Diagon Alley, which is mainly shops and restaurants. A dragon sits atop Gringotts Bank and every so often he shoots out flames, so I waited & waited and got this shot, it was worth the wait!
