Wait... there's still a few more things to see...



It was actually 12:10 when we left the house for the day! We enjoyed the morning of "down time". Then we headed back to Universal Studios to see a few more things. We loved MIB. (Men in Black) and The Mummy coaster. It was all in the dark! The kids met Jaws - though we couldn't go on the ride because it was closed for maintenance.
Then Hannah wanted us to go back to the water ride where she delighted in seeing everyone get soaked the day before. But, ironically, the joke was on her because she was the one to get SOAKED this time. We had to record her reaction on film! Sorry Hannah! Then we made her go on Jurassic Park one more time... DRENCHED this time! Nice parents, huh?
We went back to the car to change into the dry clothes we had so wisely brought. We thought the park closed at 7pm. But as we made it back to the main gates at 5:45, they told us it closed in 15 minutes! AAAAH! We wanted to get to Hogwart's one more time! So, at 100m time trial pace, we booked it to the castle. We managed to get one more butterbeer, buy a Ginny Weasley wand and the kids rode the blue dragon coaster again...twice! Their last ride on it was the last one of the day! So, that adventure certainly got our adrenaline pumping! We were so glad to get back into the land of magic one last time!
