Hey guys, I finally get to go to IOA! We are leaving tomorrow to go to Orlando and check in at the hotel (Liki Tiki). Then on the 4th we will go to IOA and the 5th we don't know what we will be doing yet. I am bringing my video camera and a canon 3.2 mega pix cam. [:D]


Edit-- Hey we changed our plans and we are going to go on the 12th (Monday) cause we figured Saturday might be more crowded.

Hey guys! Im on the computer at our hotel! We went to Universal yesterday and The Mummy was kick ass! I got front 2 times and back 2 times. This ride is my favorite is the world right now. Its so awesome! We are leaving tomorrow to go to Daytona for 2 days then go back home to pick up 2 more people and go to IOA. Last night we watched the fireworks at Universal and I got alot of pictures. Cant wait to go to IOA. And the Mummy was awesome! :) Today we went to Wet 'N Wild.

I have to agree with Xtream15 on The Mummy, it is a real fun and exciting ride, one of the best I have ridden. I don't really concider it a real coaster since only about a third of the ride is a coaster. Anyway have a great time at IOA can't wait to hear from you!

What did you like of Revenge of the Mummy? I heard some people saying that this ride isn't that good at all! I have never been there so I will ask you to make my opinion of this ride!

I really liked the theming. And what a surprise when we went backwards so soon. I thought for sure the wall was going to open up and then we would launch, but it didn't open and we went flying backwards then launched. and in the middle of the ride we stopped and fire started going all over the roof and it looked freaking sweet! Then while you looking at the fire you just drop like almost straight down into what looks like a fire pit but its fog with lighting all around to make it look like it. Now the 1st part where you just go along and looking at stuff like the ride splash Mountain at WDW. But then you come to a stop then go down a little dip and the rest is so freaking fun! Dont forget that the one in CA is alittle different then the one in Orlando. And we do end up going again then I am taking my cam out this time. I pissed I didn't do that.

Edit-- And I have been to Cedar Point twice (1st in 2001 and 2nd in 2002) and I would choose to go Universal Studios then Cedar Point. To me this ride blows everything Cedar Point has away that I have been on. Though I have not been on TTD,but I have been on everything else.
