Joining in!
I remember from our trip back in 2000, Steve and I got so soaked on Dudley and Popeye ride. We will not be doing either of those..lol However, we do want to try Jurassic Ride. That looks like a lot of fun.
Enjoying all the pics. Its getting me excited for our trip next month.

I am in .......
The day sounds amazing!! Be glad you did not end up with pukers on Popeye, that happened to us in 2010 The ride photos however are hilarious I'll have to have my sister add the Dino place to her list (yes, everywhere we go she has a list of food places )
Told you, you would love FJ. Isn't it amazing! I obviously haven't ridden pandora yet so not sure how that compares but up till now that is the most impressive ride I have been on. It does make me queasy and the first year I didn't use anything and closed my eyes but still felt a little off but this last time I took dramamine and it still was a little bad and I still had to close eyes a few times but I didn't feel as awful after. Did you ride the Hogwarts express over to Univ/Daigon Alley? The Univ side is just ok. I do like it in some ways better than Hollywood as it has more stuff but I like the actual movie tour and the fact the hollywood is still a working studio. But I LOVE IOA. The themeing is amazing and I love all the rides! Are they getting ride of dueling dragons (the two coasters in Hogsmeade) I remember when they were just called fire and ice when that area was part of the lost continent. If so did you see what they are replacing it with? Just curious.
I have vertigo, so won't ever get to experience this ride , but everyone's who's been on it (and doesn't get sick ) has great things to say about it!We decided to ride Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. I absolutely LOVED this ride!! You get in a set of 4 seats with shoulder harness and then you move forwards, backwards, sideways and go back where you feel like you're on your head. So much fun....but intense movements......so if motion sickness is an issue......you may have to skip this one.
I dont't mind the wet clothes, its the wet sneakers I hate. So I am either going bring water shoes to wear on it or bring a crappy pair of sneakers and we them on it. Or I could even run back to the hotel for a break to change after we do any water rides.
anyways, back to your report..lol
Is Forbidden Journey like Flight of Passage right, movement wise? Loved FOP and was just curious.
Butter Beer sounds really good. I think I want to try the frozen one.
Yea for me motion usually doesn't bother me TOO much unless it is like spinning but the visual stuff is what bothers me more. That is why I can do roller coasters but esp now that I am older and my vision is worse those 3D rides really get to me. Even soaring now can bother me a bit if I sit in the wrong spot.

Do you have sandals that you can get wet? That's what we wore, I no way would do wet rides with shoes on! Ick!! Water shoes are a good idea. The 3 water rides are all pretty close, so doing them back to back to back and then dry up or change out shoes would work good.
FJ is more movement......the Flight of Passage doesn't really move very much.....you just feel like you're diving and such. You really do get tipped backwards enough to make you feel like you're on your head (and the need for shoulder harnesses). This is like being on a roller coaster, FofP and Soarin' combined.
Butterbeer is DELICIOUS!!!!
