Universal Studios Hollywood!

We took a break from Disney on our third day in Anaheim and headed for Hollywood! Universal Studios Hollywood to be clear. The trip was long, but we had a darn good time. This park was much more adult oriented than Disney, and Taylee was one heck of a trooper. We took her on almost every ride (including Transformers!), and she did awesome. She was a little freaked out (maybe a lot freaked out!) by a few rides, especially Transformers. But, we were super proud of her!

Skyler and Optimus Prime, who, by the way, was pretty HUGE, and pretty freaky. But cool. Way cool.

Sun's Out Gun's Out!

We did, however, give her respite from the Jurassic Park ride. Mostly because Nana wanted to miss this wet ride, so she took Taylee to the kids dino playground. And Taylee probably would have been a bit overwhelmed by the enormous, life like dinosaurs. And probably wouldn't have enjoyed the 84 foot drop at the end either.

Headed into Jurassic Park!

We did spend a few minutes watching other people make the big drop on Jurassic Park after riding. Taylee sure enjoyed that!

Funny little fam, on one of the 5 ridiculously long escalators in the park, designed to get you from the "upper lot" to the "lower lot." I have to say, I am pretty grateful not to have to walk that many stairs!



Kent and Skyler with the friendly Minions and Gru.

Universal Studios has lots of fun rides, as well as some pretty cool shows. The Water World show is quite a spectacle, and we loved it. Taylee, well, she doesn't like fire, so she wasn't so sure about the show. Her eyes certainly never left the arena though, that's for sure!

 

Water World

A little fun in the fountains while we took a lunch break. Skyler is such a good sport!

Family Photo, Taylee was once again a bit uncooperative.

Selfie Fail. And my photo bomb! (again)

A little better effort at the family selfie. We were on the Studio Tram Tour. The longest ride EVER.

Taylee loved the Minions.

City Walk, on our way out...
