Universal and IOA: Orlando, FL

I made the video of my trip to Universal in Orlando. Check it out.

So I finally went, I have lived nearby for a couple year and I just now went. I have gone for HHN but it isn't the same since half the rides are closed up for the haunted houses.

And I went to IOA for HARRY POTTER WORLD. Yes, it was amazing. Yes, it was packed. I had butter beer and it was delicious. A carbonated butterscotch is the best way to describe it.
 Since it was Memorial Day weekend the lines were long but manageable. The Forbidden Journey was a 75 minute wait and was worth it. Took you through out the castle and it was amazing seeing everything that my imagination and the movies had put together. I was extremely excited. Even though I had my cast boot on I was a trooper and we went to the two parks and all the good rides. We had to steer clear of the water rides because of my cast boot. :(

Good rides (based on opinion and if it was worth the wait)
Universal:

• Revenge of the Mummy
• Simpsons

IOA:

• Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey
• Hulk
• Adventures of Spidermam

We also went to a couple shows like 

• Shrek in 4-D
• Disaster (was alright, was cool that it was interactive) (more funny than scary)

For food:

Margaritaville- Great service, the food was not that good. My burger was alright and the conch fritters were okay (I am Bahamian raised and spoiled). My friend liked his meal, which was jerk chicken

Hamburger Mary's- in downtown Orlando. Can I say OH MY GOD, this was delicious. My burger was amazing and the mac and cheese fried balls were heavenly.

Video Trouble

So here I am trying to edit my video from Daytona and it just crashed when I was done. And for that I won't finish it until tomorrow.

Here are some pictures from the trip to hold you over. :)

Where the Daytona 500 is raced!

 At Bubba Gumps, my friend and I shared this. It had seafood hushpuppies, shrimp, fish, fries, and coleslaw.

Ireland

So guys I have been counting down the days not only until my last final but when I get to board my plane to Ireland.

I cannot wait. Words cannot describe my excitement.I have always wanted to go to Europe and since I have traveled and lived in many countries on this side of the hemisphere. It is about time I cross the pond.

I have so many plans on what I am going to do while over there. 

• Travel on weekends
• Meet new people
• Take lots of pictures
• Start a travel blog/vlog (might as well since I travel a bit)
• As well as pass my Study Abroad program

So I will be participating in an Archaeological dig. We are going to be excavating a Friary from 13th c as well as the cemetery from around that time period.

Cool thing I learned! At the local castle is where they filmed a scene in Braveheart!

On the weekends I hope I can make it to

• Travel a little around Ireland
• Go to England
• Visit Wales and Scotland and find the towns that have my family name.
• Get to France!
