All Hulked-Up at Universal Studios – by Kane

We arrived in Orlando a few weeks after Christmas. We were camping at Fort Wilderness (which is on Disney property). The campground was in the woods and was really nice. We arrived in the afternoon and biked to the swimming pool. Later at 6:30 we went to a free campfire, and the movie Wild.

The next day we went to Universal Orlando Resort. We got a deal on a three day pass. It was rainy outside so there was barly any people around. When we arrived my sister wanted me to do a one-fish two-fish ride, and I got all cold and soaked. After that my dad and I went to do a crazy roller coaster called the Hulk. It starts you off slow then shoots you off at 50 mph. Its almost all corkscrews and loops. Then we went to the “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter”. We had lunch which I had fish with fries and frozen butter beer which is a harry potter drink and tastes like a sprite and vanilla cream soda, frozen. Then my Dad and I did the Dragon Challenge roller coaster. It hangs down, and has 8 loops. I also did it with my mom. The next ride we did was one of my dads favorites. It was part simulater part roller coaster and it was really cool, and is a broomstick riding adventure called “Forbidden Journey”. Next we went to the Jarassic park section and rode a small roller coaster which was a long wait because when we just got strapped in it broke down. Next we went to the super hero section and did the Spider Man ride, then the Dr. doom ride. It was dark outside by then. The ride took us up about 200 feet then dropped us. My mom did the Hulk one more time with me. After that we were all exausted so we left and had Chick-fil-a for dinner. Then drove back to our camp ground.

The next morning it was sunny. My sister got in trouble so she didn’t get to go. It was just my dad and I. When we arrived my dad and I did the rip ride rockit roller coaster. On the seats there are panels where you could choose a song and it would play loud while you were on the coaster. We loved it. Next we went to their model San Fransisco, and saw a street performer show. Then we went on the MIB alien attack ride. After that we went to the little kid section and did the E. T. ride. We had a long wait for the Simson’s simulator but it was pretty cool. After the ride we got a donut for a snack. Then we did the Twister ride. It was like you were in a tornado. I liked the ride. Later we did a scary ride called the Revenge of the Mummy. It was an under ground roller coaster. I liked it. We did the rip ride rocket a few more times, then we left the park for the day.

The next day we were leaving for Alabama but our RV was getting an oil change so we went back to universal. My dad and I did the hulk 4 times and a horrible cat in the hat ride once because all the waits for the other rides were too long. At 4:00 we had to leave. Even though there were no mountains or canyons. I had a great time in Orlando.
