So it was the day that the apprentice adrenaline junkies had been looking forward to. Thursday was the culmination of a week of intensive training and focus - today's destination was Islands of Adventure.
First ride had to be the Hulk and 50 minutes later all bar Mrs J were strapped in and ready to go. What a ride - all 3 of us thought it was amazing. We would have ridden it all day if we could but there were plenty of other good rides we needed to do.
Highlights of IoA were also Harry Potter - The Forbidden Journey, the Hulk and Spiderman.
It has to be said that Harry Potter world took my breath away when I saw it. It reminded me of the feeling I had the first time I saw the Magic Kingdom - and this comes from someone who hasn't read one of the book series. Miss B took a liking to ButterBeer - hope this isn't an omen for the future....
We had a good lunch at Mythos and after a few more rides the heavens opened. After half an hour the rain cleared and we managed to be the first guests on Dr Fear's Free Fall. Really enjoyed this and decided to go again as the queue was virtually non-existent. This time Mrs J could see us, as opposed to the first time when she could just hear us....
Coaster training for my daughters is now complete.....
Islands of Adventures was one of our best days so far this holiday.
