Exploring Universal Studios Hollywood

Another place on our "to-do" list was Universal Studios  Hollywood. The anticipation for this actually influenced our decision not to go to the version in Singapore despite Universal Singapore having certain attractions not found in the original Hollywood attraction. Following are some of the photos we took during our trip to Universal Studios Hollywood.

It was a good thing we brought our tripod so we could get photos even before  they opened the gates

Take two at the main entrance

These statues greeted us after entering through the main gate. The one on the right holding unto to camera crane was actually a person who moved when a child came closer to inspect.

I don't ride motorcycles unless my life probably depended on it. 

But with a Terminator behind us, what the heck!

Waterworld is a major attraction with the live action performances.

The performances featured Hollywood actors and stuntment.

They even had a plane crash land as part of the performance that wowed the crowd.

Aside from the pyrotechnics and other special effects, certain seats in the outdoor theater were  marked where the audience will surely have a wet experience prior to and during the performance.

Dora was there to help say farewell to visitors prior to closing time.
