Universal Studios - Day 3

On Thursday we got in the car and headed to Hollywood… our destination for the day was Universal Studios. There wasn’t as much for the girls to enjoy but the adults had a good time. I spent most of the time with the girls visiting the various characters, though Amanda wasn’t too thrilled with half of them. We then took turns going on some of the rides and checking out the shows. We even toured the sets where they do most of the filming.

Before heading back to the hotel we made sure to feed the girls… as they ended up crashing on the drive home (about 7:00 pm) and slept through the night pretty much. Kim and I then went out and enjoyed dinner and ice cream while Dan stayed back with the sleeping girls. Of course once we got back he went to the pool with his brother. All in all it was another great day..!

There was so much to see even on the way to the park..!

Dan, Kim, Amanda and Elizabeth at the entrance...

Once again Elizabeth went to meet the characters without Amanda... she's wasn't even afraid of Shrek... and all the characters loved her and her excitement to see them.


Look... she found Sponge Bob in her signature book..!

Amanda did LOVE Curious George... could it have to do with the fact that she is very curious herself... and a little monkey who likes to climb on everything?

This is Amanda's "I'm afraid" pose.. she covers her ears..!

While everyone went on the dinosaur ride.. the girls played with dinosaur toys..!

It might have been Amanda's favorite part of the whole park..!

Of course they also enjoyed the escalator rides...

Amanda just had to pose for one last picture by these colorful stones..!
