FLORIDA - DAY 3

We next headed to Universal Studios, as we were told that it might be better to be there on a rainy day.  We were still trying to avoid rain....which we did until the very end of the day....as you'll see

 DR. SEUSS LAND....



 HELLO HARRY POTTER.....






 The photo above shows just a fraction of the wands that were being sold in the World of Harry Potter!  I was astonished at the amount of wands being sold by just one family!!!  People looooove.....Harry Potter!

The photo below is thanks to Telisha and Nate and letting us in on the secret of ButterBeer!  We bought it cold and it was very refreshing and YUMMY!!!!!!


JURASSIC PARK = Loads of laughs and fun!






 YES, WE WERE!!
 I had to take the above photo just for Owen!  I know how much he loves Spiderman!  The 3D Spiderman ride was really one of my favorites of the day!

This roller-coaster ride - THE HULK - had Eldon coming off of it and stating that it was literally the most exhilarating and thrilling ride he has EVER been on!!!  And that's really saying something!!!


 You all know what the above photo indicates....Eldon laying down sleeping = Pamela must be shopping somewhere.... :)

Now for the rain....
Universal had closed, we were heading on our way out and noticed they had a movie theatre that stayed open during the evening hours.  We walked on over and decided to go ahead and see the new Iron Man 3 movie there.  We had no sooner purchased our tickets when behind us we heard the crowd start screaming and running....we turned and looked to find that the rain had begun to POUR!!!!  It poured hard for a number of minutes with people running under whatever cover they could find.  We felt lucky that we had just purchased tickets for the movie, so we had somewhere to go to keep out of the rain.  Within minutes the rain had flooded up to the movie theatre doors.  It was quite crazy!  Needless to say, it stayed warm....
