USS Part II

After lunch at Mel's we crossed over to New York for "Lights, Camera, Action!" We were brought to witness the live action of a hurricane scene. It's an interesting showcase which is quite out of the box.





Another fantastic show..

Waterworld!
Impressive setup..

At first I thought this would be some water circus show but no, it's an action-packed drama with (fake) gun shoots and bombs, stuntmen leaping off from 3-storeys high, riding jet/boat skis at high speeds in confined areas.

That's the jet skis..














End of show




After the show we went to take the Madagascar boat ride again!

First time we kept our cameras as we thought it would be a wet ride..

But actually it's just a very safe and normal ride.

So I asked larling to go for a second time so I can take pics! Hehe

Zeebra again :)




Their cuteness explains why I'm there for a second time
















My cam is really quite good, these pics were taken without flash in the dark!

But also attributable to my skills :D







































































It's time for larling to conquer his remaining red track..

And I managed to capture his face during the ride!

Spot the green lil thing..





Can't see? Let me zoom in for you.. lol



Mission accomplished.






Then we bumped into Woodpecker's gf, and she mischieviously tried to snatched larling away. Haha

You can see ppl behind enjoying this scene and laughing away







Finally she unwilling allowed me into the picture.

Later on we saw Po the Kungfu Panda, but photo-taking time was up when we walked over.






Lonkey's offsprings with dragon..

That gives a Longon

Lonkey with dragon wings is so mad cute!!




That's my prized possession.. Polyjuice bottle!!




End of USS.. couldn't bear to leave the happy wonderland
Dinner was at Baits which is outside USS..

Their service is uber lousy. They made ppl wait outside, ignoring all of us for a good 15mins
























Look at the ultra huge portion of stir-fry mala pot




Food is not bad but we definitely won't be gg back for a second time.

Totally condemn the lousy service






My purchases from USS!




Lonkey mug from larling!


"Are we there yet?"
Sounds like the grouchy me

USS Part I

USS is super fun!! AlthoughUSS is not as big as mega theme parks like Disneyland, and although it doesn't have as many killer rides, I'm still very proud to have our own Universal Studios in our home country. In fact, I enjoyed all of the rides and shows (other than Battlestar Galactica which I couldn't bring myself to do it), particularly Water World! I highly highly recommend to watch this show. For rides, the Revenge of Mummy indoor roller coaster is the most exciting for me, but those with faint hearts better give it a miss. I think we managed to finish all rides and shows as it was a wkday and the waiting time for most rides averaged 5-10 mins :))





We had breakfast before entering USS



Munch munch..

Eat your fill so can puke later. haha




The universal globe



Just nice the crowd cleared when it's larling turn



My zi pai skill seems not bad




After entering USS!!



Preety pushcarts along the streets














Outside Betty Boop's pinky store















The twisted red-blue monster in the background




One of the few shots with both of us in the picture





This is the time when you see my eyes at the smallest.

Didn't expect such a sunny bright day


(Larling)'ll be back to conquer you




Revenge of the Mummy..

my first ride of the day

came out with jello legs

fine, I've got a weak heart







Treasure Hunters ride..

We queued 15mins for this ride but turned out to be quite disappointing

It's more for kids.. can give it a miss





that's the jeep for the ride



I don't see any treasures...



















Ok we are back!

Blue track (Cylon) first.

the blue one is with more cockscrews and sharp turns, with your legs suspended in the air



Jia you my dear



Going.. gone



while waiting I tried to catch a shot of him, but failed.

but the second time I got it! you'll see a lil green thing in later pic






The Lost World..

Above the entrance sign is the track of Canopy Flyer.

It's a mild roller coaster ride but it's exciting enough for me already



Castles in the backdrop.. Yep that's Far Far Away














Fairy Godmother's Potion Shop







Fairy Godmother's concoction of potions..
Drinks are sold in those potion bottles but we only realised when we were about to leave USS.

So we walked back to Far Far Away to get one, but the counter have closed!

I whined like a kid.

Then we past by a push-cart selling drinks and I spotted that potion bottle!!

Yayness.. :)))))))))))))))






Hi Lonkey!



I like Lonkey best in Shrek!

Look at his face! Super cute





Can see that Lonkey doesn't like larling
