Islands of Adventure

Today Maddie and I went to Islands of Adventure. We got the final t-shirts we wanted to get and had some fun in the store trying on hats....



Maddie? how do you really feel about hamburgers....lol

Entering Suess Landing, there was a bit of fun to be had here.

the Cat in the Hat for example....

then onto the Lost Continent, we tried to peek at the Harry Potter buildings that were being built, but it's hard to see in there. That should be a very impressive attraction!

The lines today were pretty good, even the Duelling Dragons only had a 10 minute wait. The American kids are back in school, so we didn't even buy the front of the line pass today. We had wanted to do both coasters, there is fire and ice, we tried fire, but never made it back to ice.... next time. As Dean said, save some stuff for next time :-)

we did get to see the Sinbad's 8th Voyage show tho' that's impressive also. I thot more of this area was closed down to make room for Harry Potter, but we were happy to see most of it is still here, I think the only thing we noticed missing was a Unicron Roller Coaster. It will be interesting to see what they do to duelling dragons since it's on Potter land. I think they should paint it all black and we can fly like the death eaters, or make it a Quiddich game?? Time will tell, Maddie says they should do snakes, Slitherin and Griffindor.
we saw our fair share of characters today... Captain America was the first.

I was thinking of Dean.... awwwww

we walked into a store and Popeye and Olive Oyl were just walking around like shoppers! They gladly posed with Maddie :-)

too bad Maddie didn't have her Wolverine shirt on!

but then she would've missed being kissed on the head by Spiderman, he liked her shirt too, said she had great taste! I had already put the camera away so I missed the kiss....
Spidey asked Maddie if she wanted a sexy pose, I did get that one.... does Mary Jane know?
